Adoption

Being adopted creates a lifelong impact that often goes unseen by those around us and by the broader society we inhabit. I bring both my professional experience as a therapist and lived-in experience as a transracial adoptee to my work. Through this lens, I strive to support those affected by adoption in a way that is empathetic and trauma sensitive.

Therapy may be an opportunity to explore many topics within the context of adoption. A few areas we may be able to explore in our work together:

  • Grief and loss

  • Identity

  • Feelings of guilt and shame

  • Search and reunion

  • Relationships

Every person comes to therapy with their own unique story and perspective. As your therapist, I am here to help you feel heard and seen. Together we will create a plan towards a healthier and more fulfilling life.
