I am looking for therapeutic interventions for working with adoptive families (and possibly foster families) who have children who have experienced complex/developmental trauma. These children usually have attachment challenges and working on healing with the child alone of course, helps address the trauma. And working with parents in both educating and coaching helps as well. However, the piece I struggle with is working with the whole family to help them develop a familial bond, sometimes in spite of the trauma. And the ages of the children that I work with are generally school age youngsters through 18+. Any suggestions of resources would really be appreciated. Thank you.
