Being able to tell your story, to know your story, is crucial for human development. For many of us though, there are missing pieces of this story when we are adopted, resulting in more questions than answers. Trying to establish self identity while in turmoil is quite often one of the greatest challenges and also one of its greatest rewards when obtained.

I am available to help adoptees age 16+ as they begin to establish their identities for themselves. Having been a former foster child & adoptee which led to a career as a licensed psychotherapist, has allowed me the opportunity of sharing both my personal & professional experiences to other adoptees. For more information you can find me at: www.adoptionconsultant.net, FB Adoption Consulting, Instagram, You Tube & LinkedIn. I look forward to hearing from you as this journey begins for you.

“My adopted daughter is now 22. She was born addicted to coke, taken from mom at birth. Came to me at 10 months. I had no idea of the profound effects of prenatal drugs and entered this journey blind. I spent the hardest 20+ years of my life ferociously advocating for services for my girl; special schools, therapy, struggling with all the learning difficulties, sensory issues, etc.

I desperately wish I had known someone like Abby to guide us, take away the self-blame, normalize the feelings, teach us what was going on between us. Help my African-American daughter find her identity. Help her recognize the depth of her feelings of abandonment and emptiness. I would have jumped all over the opportunity to get help from someone who understands, deep in her core, an experience that is like no other. I hope you can find the support that wasn’t around when my daughter was younger.”… JL

“Ms. Jacobson’s work as a child care provider, as a licensed therapist, as an alcohol and drug abuse counselor and as the coordinator at Putney Community Cares speak to her ability to support people in a variety of ways. Her knowledge of both local and state-wide human service organizations and experience working with people of all ages makes her an effective advocate.” … S. Hessey

“This is the most inspiring thing I’ve seen anyone decide to do in a long time. I would like to take a moment to share that Abby Jacobson is the most compassionate person you could find anywhere for this cause. That she is dedicating herself to it, I find spectacular. If someone you know (or you yourself) could benefit from professional support and guidance following an adoption, whether as the adoptee or as an adopting family member, please consider Abby. I know her personally and can’t imagine a more sincere person also with both the personal AND professional experience needed – to give truly invaluable help.”…Jason C.
