Adoption Support


We provide support to adopted families and kinship carers funded through the Adoption Support Fund (ASF). This can include specialist psychological assessment of need and delivering therapeutic intervention for adopted children, their parents, and carers. The therapeutic interventions we can offer are informed by a number of therapeutic approaches such as:
- Therapeutic parenting (parenting with PACE)
- Theraplay®
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
- Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP)
- Compassion Focussed Therapy (CFT)
- Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT)
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Emotion Focussed Therapy (EFT)
- Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) Skills
- Building Underdeveloped Sensory Systems (BUSS)
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
We also facilitate therapeutic parenting groups, including for families that have already completed some therapeutic work.
