Ryan Gustafson and Hana Crisp created the Adopted Feels podcast that explores adoption-related topics including mental health, race, and identity, challenges dominant narratives about adoption, and helps to build an online community. Robyn Joy Park, LMFT and I were honored to participate in a discussion about our individual and collaborative healing journeys and our perspectives on connections and mental health for our communities. It was a good time. Keyword: Sea Leg
“In this conversation, Angela and Robyn talk about how they became therapists who specialize in adoption, the challenges, and rewards of this work, how their mentorship relationship turned into a professional partnership and deep friendship, and the online community they have built for adoptees of colour, some practical advice for adoptees looking for a new therapist or seeking therapy for the first time, and more—all with wisdom, candor, and humor.”
