We are back with Lesli A. Johnson, MFT! In this Healing Series episode, we are examining the concept of reunion. Why did “they” pick 18 as the age for when adoptees are supposedly ready to reunite or have contact? What does navigating contact look like in a semi-open adoption as a child or teenager? As we reflect back on our own closed adoptions, what would have been more helpful for us? Lesli also takes us behind the curtain and shares some themes that she sees her clients expressing about reunion.
