Adoption & Attachment

I also offer Adoption services for families and their adolescents/young adults. As an adoptee, I understand the challenges that can arise as a result of being adopted. I have worked with hundreds of families of adoptees while helping educate them on the special challenges that come with adoption. I have reunited with my birthmother and can be a helpful guide through that process.
I have studied with some of the leading experts in the industry and am able to connect with adoptees through my own personal experience of living life as an adoptee.

Some of the challenges I can help with are:

  • Deciding what information to reveal to the adoptee about birth parents
  • The decision to search for a birth parent
  • Educating families around the potential special challenges of parenting an adoptee
  • Helping an adolescent or young adult with learning to manage life as an adoptee. This may include help with identity, forming trust, managing relationships, opening up emotionally
  • Helping US born adoptees with searching for birth parents
  • Accompanying  internationally born adoptees to their birth country to help find their roots
