Lifetime Webinar Special: A Counselor’s Perspective

Lifetime Webinar Special: A Counselor’s Perspective

This webinar describes many of the emotional aspects involved in adoption. Discover the emotional history and process that comes into play for a woman when she’s choosing adoption for a baby, as well as how adoptive parents can play a role in the healing and hope of a birth mother after her child’s adoption takes place. In addition, our special guest spoke from a heart of faith and 20 years of professional experience as a Marriage and Family Therapist, encouraging adoptive parents-in-waiting to make the most of this time to become a strong parent.
 
As one of Lifetime’s third-party licensed counselors for birth mothers, guest speaker, Judie, offers a validating, hope-filled, and thoughtful look at the ups and downs of adoption for birth mothers, adoptive parents, and also the child raised through adoption.
 
* Many adoptive parents find it helpful to take part in personal counseling through their adoption process. This webinar is meant to be an informational resource to explore and begin to understand the diverse and meaningful experiences of those involved in any adoption story. If you could use additional emotional support or in-depth counseling please ask your pastor, doctor, or home study worker for recommendations of therapists who could help you.
