Wendy Bourg

Dr. Bourg has two primary areas of expertise, helping families embroiled in a high conflict divorce, and helping make sense of allegations of child abuse. Dr. Bourg’s work in child abuse began at CARES NW, where she worked as a child interviewer for 10 years and was the primary author of the first edition of the Oregon Interview Guidelines. The Guidelines also were published nationally and internationally as a scientific and pragmatic training guide, “A Child Interviewer’s Guidebook.” She continues that work as an expert witness throughout the state of Oregon. Dr. Bourg began her work on helping children and parents manage high conflict divorce in graduate school when she helped run a clinic for children of divorce. In her current practice she conducts custody and parenting studies and maintains a very busy clinical schedule focused on parent coordination, family therapy for children resisting or refusing contact with a parent, mediation and divorce coaching. Her clear and consistent focus is on problem-solving that respects the need for healthy attachment relationships in order to move the family to a more peaceful place.Many times unresolved allegations of abuse are the focus of high conflict divorce disputes, and Dr. Bourg’s two lines of practice come together. The focus on developing a plan to foster and support attachment, while honoring the need for emotional and physical safety, is key to her interventions on behalf of these struggling families.
