Finding a therapist can be tough.
It's certainly not a one-size-fits-all process, I say that as a Korean adoptee and licensed professional who's been on both sides of that dynamic.
And finding someone who truly understands the complexities of foster care, adoption, and the grief that touches both, it's really a different challenge on its own!
In this video I walk through 3 essential questions to help adoptees, adoptive parents, foster families, and helpers find a therapist who's equipped to provide effective support in the midst of the nuanced layers of our unique experiences.
Looking for more support?
For adoptees, fosters, and families: if you're navigating layers of your adoption journey like identity, grief, birth family, or simply finding the right words for what you're carrying, I've got limited 1:1 counseling spots opening up throughout the spring/summer season.
Think adoptee-sensitive, adoptee-led mental health support. [no need to spend the first three sessions explaining yourself from scratch!]
For Conference Organizers and Training Teams
If your organization works with fosters, adoptees, or the families and professionals around them, and you’re building your speaker lineup for a future event, I’d love to connect. I bring lived adoptee experience and clinical frameworks that your audience can apply immediately. [let's build an event together that they won't forget!]
