Kim Zolciak has been ordered to attend "parent therapy" sessions amid her ongoing custody dispute with ex Kroy Biermann.
In a temporary parenting plan obtained by PEOPLE on Friday, April 3, Cobb County Superior Court Judge Kellie S. Hill ordered Zolciak, 47, to complete all four sessions between April 3 and Monday, April 13, while her and Biermann's children are out of school. "All four children shall remain in the Father's physical custody" during that time, the judge ordered, per the parenting plan.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum and Biermann, 40, share four children: Kroy "KJ" Jagger Jr., 14, Kash Kade, 13, and twins Kaia Rose and Kane Ren, 12.
The Guardian ad Litem (GAL) is then required to "independently verify" that Zolciak attended the therapy sessions, per the document. PEOPLE has reached out to the court-appointed GAL for comment.
"Once Mother completes her four (4) sessions as required, the parties shall resume operation under the existing Court Ordered Parenting Plan, which otherwise remains in full force and effect until further agreement and/or modification by this Court," the order reads.
In a statement shared with PEOPLE, Zolciak says she signed a temporary custody order at the end of January that orders her and Biermann to complete two counseling sessions per month for two months, and then one session a month after that. She notes that she was unable to attend previous sessions from Feb. 26 through March 28 due to "contractual filming obligations" out of the country.
She says that Bierman has their four children the upcoming week for their spring break, which was previously "his designated parenting time under the existing agreement," and she will complete her counseling sessions during that time.
"For the avoidance of any doubt, I have not lost custody of my children, nor has there been any modification to the custody agreement outside of the agreed-upon temporary order," Zolciak says.
PEOPLE has reached out to reps for Biermann.

The week prior, Biermann and Zolciak entered into a temporary parenting plan where KJ and Kash would remain in Zolciak's physical custody, and Kaia and Kane would remain in Biermann's physical custody. That plan was entered by the court on March 3 and went into effect the week of March 30, per the order.
The latest development comes days after Biermann filed for sole custody of the former couple's four children, claiming that she has been "wholly unavailable" to them.
In court documents previously obtained by PEOPLE, the former professional football player filed an order for immediate change in custody to obtain sole custody, as well as all decision-making authority, for all four children.

Biermann claimed that Zolciak entered their temporary mediated parenting plan in "bad faith," alleging that she knew she couldn't adhere to the terms of the agreement. He claimed she "almost immediately" left the country for extended periods, making her "wholly unavailable to parent the children in any fashion" under their agreed-upon parenting plan.

He added in the documents that she was out of the country from Feb. 26 to March 29, albeit one night on March 9, and missed numerous weekly family therapy sessions.
In April 2023, after about 12 years of marriage, Zolciak and Biermann filed for divorce for the first time. However, in July 2023, a source told PEOPLE that the couple called off the divorce and were "trying to make it work for the kids." In August 2023, Biermann filed for divorce for a second time.
Biermann then filed for sole legal and physical custody in May 2023, according to documents obtained by PEOPLE at the time. TMZ was first to report the news.
