Foster Care and Adoption Counseling

Foster Care and Adoption Therapist in San Jose

You’re a parent who cares about your adopted or foster child. You’ve been noticing that:

• Your child isn’t able make friends

• You have power struggles with your child about everything

• Your home doesn’t feel safe refuge, it feels like a war zone and you just want your family members to have trusting and meaningful relationships with each other

• It feels like you’ve tried everything and you’re burned out with figuring out how deal with your child

• Your child is longing for their first family and you don’t know how to help them

There is Hope for your Family

Including the whole family in the therapy process, I can help with these problems.

I can relate with all members of your family: you (and your partner), your biological children, and your adopted children, to talk about their experiences and help them feel understood and validated.
We will work on how to communicate requests and needs in a way that intentionally helps your child feel connected to you.

I am passionate about helping children connect with their adoptive parents in a way that will set them up for positive trusting relationships their whole lives.

Through our work together we can get your family to a place where there are trusting and meaningful relationships in your home and everyone feels heard and validated.
