Anne Heche and her ex-husband Coley Laffoon are set to undergo sessions with a specialist to improve their parenting skills.

The Six Days Seven Nights actress made it clear the couple's split has been anything but amicable when she appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman last month and complained about the child support she gives Laffoon for their son Homer, seven.

But the pair will have to put their differences aside after agreeing to seek counseling with a "parenting plan coordinator," reports TMZ.com.

Heche and Laffoon have signed a deal that forces them to meet with the court-ordered chaperone to learn how to make decisions together and resolve their disputes.

Heche is currently dating her former Men in Trees co-star James Tupper, the father of her second son, six-month-old Atlas.
