Parent and Caregiver Support and Consultations at BPAR

At Boston Post Adoption Resources, we provide parent and caregiver support and consultations to those navigating the unique challenges within pre- and post-adoptive families. Through parent sessions, families receive guidance on understanding and supporting the emotional, developmental, and behavioral needs of their adopted children. Sessions combine psychoeducation, practical strategies, and emotional support tailored to the specific dynamics of adoptive families.

 

We work with families formed through:

Adoption (domestic including private adoptions and adoptions through child welfare, international, kinship, transracial)

Fostering

Guardianship

Donor Conception

 

What we can help you  cope with as parent or caregiver:

Managing triggers and reactions

How to talk to your kids about their adoption

Understanding your child's behavior as communication

Navigating birth family searches and relationships

Sibling relationships

Parent-child relationships focusing on attachment, belonging, and connection

Limit setting

Adolescent and child development

Navigating the developmental stages of adoption with a trauma and attachment lens

A few words from BPAR families...

"We turned to BPAR because my daughter and I were trying to get closer to each other and it was hard. We couldn’t really connect as much as we wanted, or cuddle or really understand each other. Our therapy has helped us do that and brought our family together."

—ERICKA, ADOPTIVE PARENT

"What makes a family is neither the absence of tragedy nor the ability to hide from misfortune, but the courage to overcome it and, from that broken past, write a new beginning."

—STEVE PEMBERTON, A CHANCE IN THE WORLD
