Manage episode 438515023 series 3499900
Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! Thinking about fostering or adopting a child? This video breaks down everything you need to know! From the differences between fostering and adoption to the emotional and practical aspects involved, we’ll guide you through each step of the process. Whether you’re looking to provide a temporary safe haven or a permanent home, this video will help you understand the responsibilities, challenges, and joys that come with welcoming a child into your life.
I'm Kelly O'Horo, Attachment based EMDR Therapist, EMDRIA Consultant, and Advanced Trainer. I'm a mom of 5, Nonna of 5, wife, and a healer. I have the honor of spending my workdays walking along side people while they brave their healing journeys. I try to live with the generous assumption that we're all doing the best we can with what we know. Therapists are teachers for the "life stuff" and "emotional vocabulary" that may not have been learned due to gaps in our care givers capabilities. In the last 15 years I've learned that people are freaking amazing, resilient, and inspiring. Most importantly, we are hardwired for connection and for healing!
I hope to bring an authentic, compassionate, and unpolished approach while we explore a variety of topics such as parenting, marriage, relationships, dating, trauma, attachment, adoption, depression, addiction, anxiety, and love! There's a why for all behaviors and an explanation that makes perfect sense as emotion is at the root of it all.
