Holt Family & Adoptee Support

Meet One on One with an Adoption Professional

All parents encounter challenges as their children grow up. And sometimes, issues may arise that leave you uncertain as to how best to respond — but not every issue requires therapy or counseling. Our team of adoption professionals are here to help during those times.

Through Holt’s Family & Adoptee Support program, you and your family will work one on one with a trauma-informed, adoption professional over several sessions to identify strategies, tools and resources that will help address the specific issue or issues you and your child are struggling with. 

Whether the challenge you’re facing is related to adoption or just typical developmental growing pains, each session will be conducted over free video communications software that is secure and easy to use, works on any device and allows you to set up wherever is most comfortable and convenient for you.

Family Testimonial on Our Support Program

One of the challenges that John and Anne C.’s family faced was separation. Even when Anne went to the bathroom, Chaopan didn’t understand that she would come back.

“[Our social worker] suggested I cuddle him before parting and then rush back. When I rushed back the first day telling him I missed him, it was like a spell broke. He was suddenly OK with me going to the bathroom alone! It felt like an amazing gift.”
