Post-Adoption Counseling Services |
From its very beginning, Dillon has
emphasized the importance of supporting adoptive families, even
after their adoption is finalized. The adoption process is not
always “smooth sailing”, but more serious issues may arise after
the child comes home, whether for the parents, the adoptee, or
siblings.
Dillon offers counseling for all
adoption-related areas, such as
-
attachment and bonding,
-
identity, or
-
behavior issues.
Adoption-related counseling can include
issues of grief and loss related to birth family, identity
formation issues, difficulty trusting others or feeling
connected to others, or fear of losing other people in one’s
life. When issues related to one’s adoption are not addressed,
there can be difficulty in relationships with others, misplaced
anger, and lack of self awareness. Not all struggles in life
for the adoption triad are related to adoption, but it is
important to explore this part of one’s experience to help reach
healthy resolution.
Counseling services are available for
anyone affected by adoption, regardless of the placing agency.
 Counseling
sessions are facilitated by Rebecca Leaming Hackworth, LCSW,
Dillon’s Director of Social Services. The hourly fee is based on
a sliding scale. Evening appointments are available. For those
not in the Tulsa area, arrangements may be made for phone or
web-conference sessions.
Please call Rebecca at (918) 583-4450 to
make an appointment.
