ADOPTION COMES WITH A LOT OF QUESTIONS.

Sometimes it's hard to know who to ask—or where to turn for reliable answers.

For more than 21 years, I answered those questions as a Director and Legal Coordinator for a national adoption agency, assisting with over 1,500 adoptions.

While I am NOT an adoption agency, facilitator, attorney, or social worker, I can help guide you through the process, explain common adoption procedures, and direct you to the appropriate professionals and resources.

Whether you're just beginning your adoption journey or facing a situation that feels confusing or overwhelming, I can help you navigate the next steps with confidence.
