Specific topics include:
- The incidence of depression and anxiety in our adopted or foster care kids.
- The role of early trauma and how it can play out over time.
- What depression and or anxiety looks like at different ages and stages.
- How understanding our own feelings and reactions as parents can aid in empathizing with our children and help all of us interact more effectively.
- How to help kids develop more coping tools.
- When to consider professional help.
