Your adoption has not gone the way you had hoped. Years of therapy, diagnoses and medication trials. Your life has been gripped by a seemingly endless cycle of fear, anxiety, instability and overall dysregulation. Times may have felt unpredictable and even unsafe. More adopted people and their families share these experiences and get to a point of seeking out a way to make sense of what it’s all about and what can be done. I am here to help.
I have been in the mental health field for 20+ years and have focused on adoption issues for the last 10+ years. I was transracially adopted from Korea and have been raising awareness of the mental health and sociocultural issues of adoption survivorship. By sharing my own story, it’s helped people like you know that you are not alone. It’s incredibly important to me that we all fully understand the realities so many adopted people and their families are living through.
I am licensed in Connecticut where I can see my clients through telehealth therapy sessions. My practice is private pay only and sessions start at $180 (sliding scale fees are given on a case-by-case basis). I believe that from self-awareness comes self-acceptance. That is when we can break the cycle and lasting change can happen.
