Supporting you after adoption
Consultation after adoption
You'll never have to face this journey alone. Our post-adoption specialists will work with you to assess needs and concerns during challenging situations, provide recommendations for support, connect you to adoption-competent community resources, and provide follow-up to ensure your needs have been met.
Coaching for adoptive family relationships
For individuals seeking more support, coaching is available to provide one-on-one guidance. We can meet face-to-face, through a virtual meeting, or by phone - at your convenience.
Coaching includes:
- Assessment of strengths and needs
- Identifying goals and developing strategies
- Professional consultation with other service providers
- Follow-up support
NOTE: Please be aware that consultation is not considered clinical counseling and will not be billable through insurance providers.
