In any custody or visitation dispute between parents, the court may order family therapy or reunification therapy to assist the parties in formulating or modifying a plan, or in implementing a plan, for custody or visitation. The court shall allocate the cost of any therapy ordered between the parties.
There is a rebuttable presumption that, in a custody or visitation dispute between parents, it is not in the best interest of the child for the court to order family therapy or reunification therapy if the court finds:
(1) One party has been the victim of domestic abuse, as defined in § 25-10-1, perpetrated by the other party; or
(2) A child involved in the action has been a victim of domestic abuse, as defined in § 25-10-1, perpetrated by one of the parties.
