Adoption

Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we will ever do.

Brené Brown

I work with all members of the adoption triad, specifically teens, adults, and parents impacted by adoption.
Throughout their life, people tend to have different understandings and feelings about what it means to be adopted. Families don’t have just one conversation about adoption – it is ongoing, changing, and evolving. Adopted teens and adults can benefit from the support of an adoption-competent counselor, particularly with issues of grief and loss, identity, and anger.

If you or your teen’s history includes abuse or neglect, I am able to provide specialized treatment for trauma.
