Therapy for individuals and families touched by adoption

Are you an adoptee, birth parent, or adoptive/foster parent? Adoption is often full of joy. At the same time, it can present unique challenges for adoptees and parents, including:

• Questions or concerns around identity

• Loss and grief

• Developmental, emotional, or behavioral concerns

• Attachment and relationship challenges

• Trauma history

• Understanding and processing your/your child’s adoption story

• For international and transracial adoptees and their families, there may also be cross-cultural challenges

Individual or family therapy with a skilled therapist specially trained in these issues can be an invaluable tool in addressing adoption-related concerns. In addition to my general practice, I have a special interest and extensive training and experience in working with individuals and families touched by adoption, including:

• Current or prospective adoptive and foster parents

• Adopted tweens and teens

• Adult adoptees

• Adoptive families

• Kinship families

• Birth parents
