Compassionate, Practical, and Adoption-Centered Guidance for Every Stage of the Journey!
Created and led by Dr. Chaitra Wirta-Leiker—licensed psychologist, international/transracial adoptee, and adoptive parent—this comprehensive 8-part course series offers a one-of-a-kind learning experience designed to support adoptive and foster parents, caregivers, and professionals through every stage of a child’s journey.
Whether you're parenting a young child, raising a teen, or preparing a young adult for independence, this series equips you with the knowledge, tools, and self-awareness to build strong, connected, and trauma-informed relationships rooted in empathy and understanding.
Why This Series Matters
Adoption and foster care are layered, complex, and lifelong journeys—not just events. The children and teens in your care carry invisible stories of loss, identity, and resilience. Supporting them requires more than love—it requires insight, intentionality, and ongoing growth.
This series meets you where you are, offering real-world guidance, adoption-specific strategies, and a compassionate lens that helps you understand your child’s behavior, identity, and emotional world more deeply.
What You'll Gain from the Full Series
- A trauma-informed and attachment-focused framework you can apply across ages and situations
- Developmentally appropriate language and strategies for sensitive conversations
- Clarity on the emotional experiences behind behavior—and how to respond with confidence
- Tools to address race, identity, grief, and loss with compassion and honesty
- Practical guidance for everyday struggles, big transitions, and long-term planning
- Opportunities for deep self-reflection and growth as a parent, caregiver, or professional
