Two sisters holding hands

So you're planning to adopt a child. Or you've already adopted one.

Congratulations!
You have done a wonderful thing.

You've offered your lifetime love and opened your home to a little (or not so little) human being who needs you.

But perhaps you're feeling a bit nervous—or maybe a lot nervous. If so, take heart. As one who has adopted two daughters, I know that raising a family is challenging. I also know that raising a family created or augmented by adoption is twice as challenging.

That's where I can be of help to you. Having made the adoption journey myself, I can help you navigate its rough waters to a fully functioning family.

How?

  • By helping you understand the complexities of creating a family through adoption.
  • By showing you proven ways to strengthen your new family bonds.
  • By offering you practical strategies for developing a family environment in which your adopted child can smoothly transition into a role as a happy family member — one whose unique needs are being met and whose heritage is celebrated.

While it is impossible to prevent problems in any family, you and I can work together to minimize and resolve those problems. Together we will develop a family atmosphere in which your adopted child can thrive.

Getting started in coaching is as easy as making a phone call or sending me an email. Just call at 540-825-1134 or email me at Sharon@HeartprintsAdoption.com.

An introductory session at no charge is available to help you determine if coaching is for you. I look forward to hearing from you!!

If after the initial consultation, you decide that you'd like to take advantage of the benefits of coaching, the standard arrangement is for three 30 minute sessions per month plus additional retainer services, fax and brief "spot coaching calls". Sessions are most often conducted over the phone because of the convenience and flexibility it offers people. “In person” appointments may also be arranged for an additional fee.

The fee for the standard coaching package is $225 per month.

Tailored coaching packages are available in order to respond to the changing needs of the client as the coaching process progresses.
