Bailey's Story: How Trauma-Informed Care and Play Therapy Help an Adoptive Family

Center for Child Counseling | Adoptive mother Bailey Hughes tells her story as a foster then adoptive family--the challenges faced and how the Center has helped them meet their children's needs.

She explains the importance of trauma-informed care and the necessity for parents to have the tools to caretake for children who have gone through trauma. Center for Child Counseling gave them, as parents, the tools they needed and the necessary therapeutic services for their children to handle their past trauma. Through play therapy, Bailey's daughters were able to show what happened and what they had gone through, and for the first time Bailey was able to understand the children she had been raising and what was causing their behaviors.

Bailey's story is one of hope--trauma is not the end all, be all. There are ways to work through and heal the effects of trauma and build healthy family relationships.
