Strengthening Partner Relationships During Adoption

Speaker: Stephanie Risinger, LCMFT

Adoption can be a beautiful experience. It also comes with many unknowns, difficult decisions, and potential for attachment-related challenges. Partner relationships often suffer as a result. This webinar will provide a basic understanding of the various types of adoption, how partners may prioritize their relationship during the adoption process, and a framework for understanding attachment challenges for adoptive children and parents. The webinar will also address some cultural considerations, perinatal mental health challenges and extended family relationships.
