ADOPTION & FOSTER CARE SUPPORT
Children who join a family through adoption or system care are often impacted by difficult circumstances--no matter the journey, it begins with significant loss that needs to be acknowledged and grieved. This loss, even if it is early in life, impacts the child's sense of security, beliefs about themself, and ability to connect to others. Often these challenges and self-doubt play out in behaviors.
As a mama by adoption I know first hand how challenging it can be, reassuring your children over and over that you love them. Carrying not just their grief, but also some of your own. Caring for our children can at times feel lonely, overwhelming, and hopeless. Often our children need us to love and support them at home, but the challenges can also impact their relationship with their peers and their learning.
There are a few ways Pūlama can help support your family. First, I am pleased to bring the Safe and Sound Protocol to the islands.
Please contact me for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we will work well together.
"The goal is to see the PRECIOUS CHILD that exists beneath the SURVIVAL STRATEGIES, and to let them know that we SEE THEM."
