Seven core issues are often perceived as barriers to fosterees’ and adoptees’ abilities to be healthy and successful. But what if we viewed these issues – loss, rejection, guilt/shame, grief, identity, intimacy, and control – on a spectrum that ranges from struggle to strength?
Join Dr. Chaitra Wirta-Leiker as she guides you into the extraordinary and often overlooked world of fosteree and adoptee strengths and superpowers. Learn to support your child’s natural tendencies, embrace their unique methods for problem- solving and navigating relationships, and empower them to feel proud of the remarkable ways in which they contribute to the world.
