Senior Practice Consultant Dee and Clinical Supervisor and Adult relationship counsellor Carola, discuss adoption and the impact this can have on families.
Connected is the name of a bespoke service for adopted children age 7- 10, young people age 11 – 25 years old, and an 18-25 year old group.
“We spent lockdown getting ready to welcome two adopted children to our home” “It feels like all our Christmases have come at once! They feel like they’re ours already and we haven’t even met them yet.
“Lockdown has been tough but the support we’ve had has got us through.
Adopters Story Our journey like many others, started with a very painful event; Infertility, IVF and a period of mourning.
When our daughter’s social worker visited our home to see that we could accommodate the little person about to enter into our lives, she mentioned the “honeymoon period” that adopters often have.
