As a social worker, I do not believe in disorders or pathologizing people based on a checklist of symptoms. I am excited to announce that I am accepting new clients.

Addiction, suicide & mental health struggles all make sense. What does not make sense is how we react to people who are struggling. Adopted/displaced people are over represented in addiction/suicide/mental health struggles.

People respect and honor other people’s biology unless they’re adopted, fostered and displaced people. They get mad, lie, hide the truth and are downright abusive if we want to know who are family is and where we come from.

If adoption and foster care are not your lived experience do not write stories/movies about it. If you’re a fosterer or adopter do not create content about a lived experience you have not had.

I decided to add a reel about what it’s like to be internationally displaced and trafficked. If this is your lived experience, please feel free to share in the comments.

One of my favorite things to do is present. I am excited to announce that I booked another speaking engagement where I will discuss adoption and suicide. Please contact me if you’re interesting in having me speak.
