We welcome community partnerships, organization collaborations and public speaking opportunities about contemporary family issues, co-parenting, parental brainwashing and alienation, the legal process and how humor helps us cope in any situation! The Toby Center philosophy is maintaining a trusting, and nurturing parent child relationship for both the custodial and non custodial parent. All research demonstrates that such a relationship strengthens a child's ability to thrive academically, socially, spiritually, and physically. Toby Center staff engage separated parents most often through the courts which may mandate supervised visitation. With compassionate and mindful staff, children and parents endure the third party intrusions with more confidence and hope for natural relationships. As an educator and public speaker, the Toby Center founder, Dr. Roseman journeyed from his own highly conflicted divorce in 1997. He saw that advocating for recognition of PA and PAS was not enough. In his doctoral research, Dr. Roseman. a trained family court mediator, found that where tools of peacemaking could be introduced, then the likelihood of improved child outcomes could then be possible. "What children see at home, they will do to society," said preeminent child psychiatrist Karl Menninger. Says Roseman, "If we can focus on improving the parents' state of mind and value system, then we have improved the potential for better emotional, psychological and physical outcomes for children." If your community may need a Toby Center, contact us at 855-862-9236 or email us at info@thetobycenter.org for details how we may help you!

Buddy Lunch is a new public school based peer group offered by The Toby Center for Family Transitions which i founded in 2010. Buddy Lunch is research based, and designed to mitigate bullying, build self esteem, and reduce stress often felt by children of divorce, notably characterized by high conflict.
I conceived this program with an experienced guidance professional from Newport, RI 25 years ago, and I led our first presentation to the Palm Beach County Board of Education in April 2024.
Here is Part 1 of that training, a video series now being edited. We would love to bring this to other Boards of Ed!
I welcome your feedback!

If you wish to learn behind the thinking of an alienated child, you will want to attend this: Meet Kevin Scott
Date: 06/10/2025
WHAT TO EXPECT: Kevin Scott is an adult child who was unaware that he was a victim of Parental Alienation until he was later diagnosed. Kevin will be speaking out on how he discovered his diagnosis and how he felt during the alienation and after he began realizing the alienation. Stories such as Kevin's are important, as many adult children never recognize that they have been victims of alienation. Nor do they even know how to handle that situation once they do begin to realize it.
Time: 6pm-8pm Eastern Standard Time

The Toby Center was founded in 2008 and is based in Florida. The Center has emerged a major provider of multiple services for children and parents seeking effective court ordered services to help with child custody decisions when parents separate, so that children can achieve emotional health and parents may achieve reduced conflict between them. These services include supervised visitation, family mediation and reunification, family therapy, education, co-parenting interventions and support services for parents journeying through the complexity and overwhelming process of separation and divorce. All research demonstrates that such a relationship strengthens a child's ability to thrive academically, socially, spiritually, and physically.
The Toby Center is a non-profit agency providing programs to improve child outcomes and relationships with their parents, when they choose to separate. Toby Center services are available on a flexible basis during the week including evenings, weekends and holidays. Toby Center staff engage separated parents most often through court ordered visitation services with compassion and mindfulness. With this help, children and parents gain more confidence and hope for natural relationships and obtain improved children’s mental health, social behavior and self confidence during this traumatic period.
The Toby Center philosophy maintains a trusting, and nurturing parent-child relationship for both the custodial and non-custodial (visiting) parent, so that children and parents obtain improved emotional, physical, social and psychological outcomes for all. Importantly, too, “educating and advocating for public awareness of issues regarding alienated parents, estranged and brainwashed children and the negative impact of litigation which contribute to child bond obstruction,” says Caroline DeBolt, Assistant Director for Education for The Toby Center.
The Toby Center was founded by Dr. Mark David Roseman, a trained family mediator and parent coordinator who is a specialist in high-conflict divorce and a consultant in child custody. He is a public speaker and author of Preserving Family Ties, An Authoritative Guide to Divorce and Child Custody for Parents And Family Professionals (www.PreservingFamilyTies.com).
Dr. Roseman has found that advocating for recognition of Parental Alienation and Parental Alienation Syndrome is not enough. In his research, Dr. Roseman found that were tools of peacemaking that could be introduced. Then, the likelihood of improved child outcomes are possible.
“It’s about context,” says Dr. Roseman. “When parents are angry and fearful, when children are anxious and misbehave, it’s all symptomatic. Before courts, attorneys and therapists seek to label, we must ask, What is the underlying cause? What is the trigger of the observed behavior?”
"What children see at home, they will do to society," said preeminent child psychiatrist Karl Menninger. Says Roseman, "If we can focus on improving the parents' state of mind and value system, then we have improved the potential for better emotional, psychological and physical outcomes for children."
The Toby Center is seeking to replicate its model throughout the US where family courts are overwhelmed by caseloads and seek to make improved child custody decisions. Dr. Roseman may be reached directly at 561-244-0010.
