Adoption Counseling
 We are here to help you understand your concerns and assist you through the decision making process. We know several couples that have been blessed through adopting domestically and internationally. Each couple has experienced a completely different journey, but each couple has something profoundly special in common...they followed the desires of their hearts and faced their fears.The journey through adoption can be significantly different for the husband and for the wife. With that in mind it is important to understand each others individual thoughts, concerns, and hopes. We have found that sometimes it is difficult and even painful to face your spouses' true emotions, but through recognizing their feelings you can move forward together. We recommend checking out a wonderful resource Stepping Stones Newsletter - A Ministry of Bethany Christian Services.  Consider subscribing to this newsletter and seeking out the support of understanding friends, support groups, or adoption counseling.We have found that at times it is difficult for couples facing infertility to discuss their struggles with friends and family. It is important to keep in mind that at times it is hard for people to be the good listeners that you are yearning for, but remember they do have your happiness in mind. For this reason, couples have found it comforting to talk to a counselor that will listen to their concerns and provide empathy.
