We will walk with you through the steps of choosing the adoptive family, exploring and discussing your needs for the adoption, as well as preparing you for some of the difficult and overwhelming moments. We are here and we are concerned about your emotional and psychological well being. We realize that you may need just a bit of help, or perhaps more support works better for you. You help guide us, we work together as a team. Search and Reunion Counseling is available to individuals to help support them through this emotional journey.

Counseling for all other needs is provided by Adoption Link and is discussed on a case by case basis. " I wanted to thank you for everything that you did for us this weekend. You are the one who made sure all of the pieces fit together,while always seeing the big picture. I can not tell you how grateful I am for everything you did and just for who you are."
