Episode 55: Off the Beaten Path with Patty McClarren

Today Julie and Samuel sit down with an amazing woman, Patty McClarren MSSA, LSW. Patty has the awesome perspective of being an adoptee and a therapist. We talk about triads, constellations, first families, and what language to use with adoptees. We discuss grief and trauma. The conversation is about adoptive families, but this episode is relevant to people and families of all kinds!
