Do you feel constrained in a relationship where you struggle to be heard? Or feel ‘stuck’ in the same old patterns? Do you ever feel like you are not living the life that is authentically meant for you? Do you find yourself overwhelmed with anger, worry, fear, or feelings of inadequacy or self-blame? Addressing these questions and concerns in a therapeutic context can open up room to repair relationships with oneself and with significant others. As a partner in facilitating change, I will work with you and/or your loved-ones to creatively and collaboratively discover new solutions that can help you move beyond emotional and relational stumbling blocks. Having worked in the field of mental- health for many years, I have shared in helping many clients find their way through to wellness from places of high-risk, grief/loss, trauma and conflict in their families. Drawing from a variety of therapeutic modalities, I work with adults, teens, couples and parents/families to help develop and utilize new coping skills that are rooted in your yet- discovered strengths. I am here to listen. Change is possible.

Adoption Therapists

Does my adopted child need therapy?

Not every adopted child needs therapy. However, many can benefit from seeing an adoption-informed therapist, especially if they were victims of abuse or neglect, appear withdrawn or disconnected, have behavioral or developmental issues (which may or may not be related to their adoption), are struggling with feelings of grief or loss surrounding their birth parents, or find it difficult to establish an identity, a challenge that often becomes most apparent during adolescence.

When should adoptive parents seek therapy?

Prospective parents can benefit from therapy even before an adoption—for example, to voice worries and fears; to reconcile infertility struggles, if relevant; or simply to prepare themselves for parenthood. After the adoption, parents who are struggling to bond with their child; are unsure how to talk about adoption or related issues, such as race; or whose child is dealing with developmental, behavioral, or psychiatric concerns can address these and other issues with the help of an adoption-competent therapist.

Is family therapy appropriate for adoptive families?

Family therapy can be invaluable for strengthening the bond between adoptive parents and children, helping the latter feel more secure in their place in the family. Family therapy can also help adoptive families navigate complex communication issues—for example, parents who feel uncomfortable discussing race with their child, who in turn feels invalidated by their silence, or a child who has questions about his birth parents but avoids asking them out of fear of hurting his adoptive parents’ feelings.

What therapy is not appropriate for adoption issues?

A discredited therapy known as “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy” or “rebirthing therapy”) should not be used to treat adopted and foster children, though it was largely designed for this population. Attachment therapy involves restraining, coercing, and punishing the child in order for them to “release” negative emotions and attach to their new caregivers—techniques that are abusive and dangerous and have even proven fatal in some cases.
