Adoption and Fostering Counselling

Our psychologists in Calgary offer EMDR, Attachment-Focused Family Therapy, Theraplay, Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy, and other therapies tailored to the special needs of adoptive families to support them to connect and deepen their relationships.  

 

Sometimes we need help to connect.  All families can struggle with this.  An approach that builds connection, attunement, and shared enjoyment can help your family repair and reconnect.  
 
Special challenges can arise when children have experienced trauma and loss. 
 
We are experienced in helping families to connect, including adoptive families, stepfamilies and families including a child with additional or special needs.

​

Gillian and Scott have over 20 years of professional and personal experience with adoption and fostering.

​

All of our psychologists have received additional training in adoption informed counselling.
