Conjoint vs. Family Therapy: What’s the Difference and Why Does it Matter? 
LIVE WEBINAR JULY 8, 2026
Do you have a high-conflict custody case where nothing seems to be working and no one can fix the problems?  Do you have a case where a child is refusing to visit with one parent and therapy hasn’t been effective?  Do you know the difference between conjoint therapy and family therapy – and do you know why the distinction is important? 
 
Join Commissioner Patti Ratekin (Ret.) and Mitra Sarkhosh, LMFT for a topical and timely presentation on these thorny issues.  Learn about the latest therapeutic techniques, what language you should consider putting in your stipulations, and what you should consider asking your judicial officer to order in such situations.
 
Speakers:     Comm. Patti Ratekin (Ret.) and Mitra Sarkhosh, LMFT
Date:              July 8, 2026 (via Zoom)
Time:             12 PM – 1 PM
Cost:              $15.00

🌺 Aloha, friends! 🌺

Trade your briefs for board shorts — it's time for our Annual Happy Hour with Safe & Sound Visitation at the legendary Bali Hai!

Kick off your shoes (okay, maybe keep them on) and join us for an evening of tropical cocktails, ocean breezes, and good company as we swap the office for grass skirts and leis. It's the perfect chance to mingle with the family law community, toast to another great year, and maybe even master the art of the mai tai. 🍹

🌴 Date: Thursday, July 16, 2026
🌴 Time: 5:30 PM — 7:30 PM
🌴 Location: The Bali Hai, 2230 Shelter Island Dr, San Diego, CA 92106

This year's theme: ISLAND WEAR! 🏝️ Hawaiian shirts, sundresses, floral prints, straw hats — the louder, the better. 

Come thirsty, come festive, and come ready to hula your way into summer.

Mahalo — and see you there! 🌞🌊🌺
