Families created through adoption, fostering and donor-assisted reproduction and blended families have unique histories and experiences which differ from families created through birth alone. All have experienced losses and the trauma of broken birth bonds. These experiences can provoke conscious or unconscious feelings such as grief, anger and shame which have significant impacts on self-value, behaviours, relationships and intimacy. If you are a part of such a family, accessing & understanding your experience & grieving your losses, are necessary before personal change and deeper interpersonal connections can be made.
No matter the issue you are struggling with, if you have a history of significant loss it plays a part. Together we will work to integrate and heal the impacts of the past to achieve holistic, balanced and fulfilling change - allowing you to move forward with strength and confidence and to build nurturing relationships to carry you forwards.
If you’d like to learn more about yourself and your own unique family, to understand and integrate your experiences and to successfully navigate your journey, it will be my pleasure to support you and to make your path just a little bit smoother and more fulfilling. I welcome you to explore my website for additional information and to connect personally.
