International Adoption – The Impact of Early Trauma & Transitions
Keep connected! Let me know if there is anything you need support with!
International adoption brings unique joys and challenges, especially when early adversity and institutional care impact a child’s ability to trust and attach. In this episode of The Art of Attachment, we explore how early trauma shapes brain development, why transitions can be overwhelming, and how adoptive parents can create a foundation of safety and connection.
We also discuss cultural identity, language loss, and practical strategies to support attachment and emotional healing. Whether you’re an adoptive parent, an adoptee, or a professional, this conversation will deepen your understanding of international adoption and attachment.
