Is parenting your adopted child tougher than you thought?

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by big behaviors, attachment struggles, or guilt over finding this season harder than you imagined—you’re in the right place

Hi! I’m Lora Rose 

As an adoptive parent consultant & trauma-informed occupational therapist—I provide consultations to help parents move from feeling stuck and overwhelmed to feeling confident and connected to their child.

What I Do:

✔ Trauma-informed consultations for parents
✔ Practical tools to build attachment
✔ Support that actually fits into real life

Does This Sound Like You?”

  • You love your child deeply, but bonding hasn’t been as easy as you expected.

  • You’ve read all the books, but nothing seems to work in real life.

  • You feel like no one really understands what you’re going through.

  • You just want clear, practical help from someone who gets it.

You don’t have to do this alone.

Parenting your adopted child brings its own set of challenges, and the traditional parenting advice doesn’t always apply. You don’t need generic solutions or promises that behaviors will change instantly.

You need an approach that works for your family—one that honors your child’s past, builds trust, and helps you feel confident in your responses.

That’s where my approach comes in. It’s trauma-informed and rooted in connection, guiding you to understand your child’s behavior, set realistic expectations, and respond with compassion.

Here’s the thing….

I can’t guarantee your child’s behavior will magically change—because, let’s be real, no one has that kind of control.

What I can promise is that you’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of your child’s needs and a plan that works for your family.

Consultations

Get personalized, one-on-one support tailored to your child’s unique needs, so you can move forward with confidence. Whether you're struggling with meltdowns, attachment, daily routines, or big emotions, we’ll create a plan that actually works for your family—without the overwhelm.

  • Designed for families who want expert guidance but prefer a slower, more sustainable pace. This option provides ongoing support and accountability over six months, giving you the space to implement strategies, adjust as needed, and build confidence in your parenting approach.

  • For the family who needs quick, practical guidance without a long-term commitment—get expert support to tackle challenges now and start seeing progress fast.

  • "Lora has lifted a weight off our shoulders. As a new mom the second time around she educates compassionately. She continues to guide and give the skills to gently lead our little one in the right direction."

    Vanessa M.

  • “Lora was an incredible resource for us and our daughter! She genuinely cares for kids and is excellent at meeting both kids and parents where they are at as well as being very well educated and experienced. Could not recommend her enough.”

    Ruby C.

  • "Lora helped me see the sensory world around us and the best ways to help my “sensory-seeking” daughter get her needs met. This helped tremendously with her behavior and communication on what she needs.”
