Growing Intentional Families Together, LLC
Coaching Support for the Triad from the Triad
Growing Intentional Families Together does not facilitate adoptions.
We encourage, support and prioritize family preservation.
Our TriSpective Approach considers the needs and wants of the birth mother, the adoptee and the adoptive parents. A Tri-spective point of view builds a more complete picture of what it means to live as an adoptive family.
Adoption is intended to benefit the adoptee so, we hold an adoptee-centric approach.
We believe all triad members are inter-connected in a profound and permanent way. We call this Tri-Relational Interconnectivity. What happens to one person in the adoption relationship affects the others. When people understand this interconnectivity, it helps them to humanize each other and leads to improved communication and empathy.
Our Adoption Attuned Parenting® approach recognizes the additional responsibilities and practices required of adoptive parents that we call the Adoption Attunement Elements.

Testimonials
J.K.
“Some of the benefits I received from your coaching were thoughtful conversation and brainstorming ideas to help me get through some difficult times I would describe the coaching experience as relevant and thought provoking. I was accountable for myself because I knew we would converse next meeting on whether or not I had followed through”
R.K.
“”[My coach] is a fantastic coach. She is able to build good rapport and has extensive technical knowledge while bringing in the softer side of issues based on actual experience. I would highly recommend her.””
J.D.
“My GIFT coach “actively listened and understood my kids as Korean Adoptees. Each week I was given an assignment to achieve prior to meeting again. If I was unable to follow through on the assignment, we discussed my obstacles and challenges. [My coach] has a direct approach of continually challenging me by taking small steps toward my initial goal and eventually achieving it.”
