Are you an adoptee that has experienced change or transitions in your life? Do you prematurely end a relationship before you get left? This is a trauma response due to attachment issues which are common with adoptees. Most adoptees crave a secure attachment. Unresolved trauma wrecks havoc on our ability to give, receive love. Learning to understand and unravel where this comes from can help you make progress toward not avoiding these uncomfortable thoughts.
A trauma-informed, adoptee competent therapist, I can validate your feelings as an adoptee while you navigate the complexities of search, reunion, relationship, estrangement with family of origin while being fully supported by a licensed professional. Sensitive to the unique needs of adoptees as it relates to conscious awareness with "Coming out of the Fog."
In our therapeutic relationship, you will be validated, supported, encouraged to identify personal strengths. Work through difficult emotions that might be holding you back from past trauma, negative experiences, attaching or detaching in your relationships due to fear of being abandoned/rejected. Let's push through these negative beliefs to heal old wounds.
