    Dr. Reese, an attachment and trauma specialist, shares her journey to becoming an adoptive mother. Sharing stories to illustrate each chapter, you will laugh and cry as you join her on her adoption journey. The puzzle pieces of life may not make sense individually, but when put together they create a beautiful picture!Dr. Reese explains clinically what an adopted child experiences while on their adoption journey, interventions that families can use to strengthen bonding, and the reasons why those interventions are the most appropriate. Challenging behaviors and out of control emotions can result in children who have experienced trauma. She challenges us to think outside the box, to parent our adopted children in a different way. Children who have experienced trauma, and every child who has been adopted or in the foster care system has experienced attachment and other forms of trauma, have a difficult time seeing adults as safe people and developing relationships with them. Trauma changes the brain, impacting a child's ability to emotionally and self regulate. When a child is not connected in a safe and trusting relationship with an adult, that child will struggle to follow directions and be respectful, making parenting this child a challenge. Children who have experienced trauma do not purpose to be a challenge and they need parents who will stay with them through the hard work of learning to trust adults and feel safe in relationships.Learn to see the world through your child's eyes, their worldview impacted by trauma. Understand the world from their perspective and be able to connect with them by using relationship building skills that emphasize trust building and re-teaching. This is what our adopted children need from us and Dr. Reese helps us to find the way to connection. Explaining complex clinical concepts with ease and making them applicable to daily life, she shows us how to bring these concepts into our homes. Dr. Reese has been working with children and families for the last 20 years. She is the author of Attachment: 60 Trauma-Informed Assessment and Treatment Interventions Across the Lifespan. A TBRI Practitioner, she owns Felicity Counseling Services and provides therapy and parent consultation to adoptive families. Dr. Reese travels across the country, training therapists to work with children who have experienced trauma.

    As our society becomes more detached and disconnected, as independence and self sufficiency have been emphasized as life goals, this has not resulted in safer, more stable, healthier communities. In fact, mental health concerns, violence and broken relationships abound. As we become disconnected our relationships are characterized by dysfunction and when we experience distress in life we can then develop disorders, the most common are anxiety and depression. We are all seeking independence and to not need anyone else, however, no person can be completely independent and in seeking this unattainable goal we are losing our ability to be attuned to each other-to see the needs of others and to meet those needs. Attunement is a building block to trust. And trust is a building block to attachment. Without attunement we can not trust and we will not have attachment-based relationships. Technology has had a large role in the disconnection that is happening in our society today. We hear that we are more connected today than ever before, but this is advertising and the reality is that we have traded deep, meaningful and fulfilling relationships for hundreds of superficial connections. This has a direct impact on our mental health, as healthy attachment is the foundation of good mental health. Dr. Christina Reese leads us through a brief American history to explain how our society has arrived at this place, identifying the shifts that have occurred over the last 100 years to cause the disconnection that we are now experiencing. She shares how this has impacted society, our relationships, our mental health and our children. She then explains the importance and role of attachment, that in moving from dependence to independence we missed the balance in the middle of interdependence. Dr. Reese then shares recommendations for repairing and improving society, our relationships, our mental health and healing our children who have been impacted by these dysfunctional relationship patterns.
