Children in foster care are up against some of the most difficult situations a child can ever face. They’ve lost their homes and been plucked from their families — sometimes permanently.
Learning how to meet the needs of these vulnerable and traumatized children can quite literally change their lives. Surrounded by chaos, you can be the therapist who changes everything for these kids.
But it starts with learning exactly what they need and how to help.

A start-to-finish roadmap for therapy with kids and teens in foster care
Proven strategies for building trust, creating emotional safety, and establishing rapport beginning in the first session
Tools to treat abandonment wounds, mitigate shame, increase self-esteem, and construct a coherent life narrative
A complete foster care toolkit with TONS of handouts and ready-touse interventions
