If you are treating people who were adopted, or were adopted yourself, learn to heal the foundation of attachment and relationship.
If you are the parent of an adopted child, learn how to relate in ways where you are empowered and your child feels safe, and you are not the target of their unresolved fears and needs.
The adoption experience challenges relationships at an uncanny level. Adoption has a unique nervous system signature, and this course will help you understand, work with, and resolve that imprint.
Many adoptive parents try really hard and are good; however the basic "adoption signature" creates attachment issues: and power struggles! You become the projection of the "bad mother" or unsafe mother, the father becomes the "rescuer" your relationship falls apart because you are both desperate and detached.
Adoption has an unusual co-dependency due to inutero/post-birth "unmet needs," until you know how to unravel the pieces of need found within the adoption imprint.
Take the adoption quiz and find out if you need some help to go from surviving to thriving.

Testimonials
"Despite my best efforts to do so in the last couple of years, I had not been able to find an adoption informed therapist with whom to work. I was working with a therapist whom I saw glancing briefly at that primal wound and quickly diverting our attention away from it as something that she did not have any skills with and which I interpreted as too painful for us to bear. That was an instance of a therapist doing more harm than good, and was part of the fuel for my coming on your specific course and for some activism I have been engaging in trying to raise awareness of the need for therapists to receive specific training in adoption issues."

"I got so much from this course. I have gained an ability to integrate each week's content and tools to be able to begin seeing change on a cellular level almost immediately. I would say my activation became apparent around module 7 when we began really getting into more triggering stuff with my emotional neglect and things I had been discovering about my attachment style...The overwhelm and confusion is something I have such a better grasp on... Peeling back the layers to this has been so eye-opening and your facilitation of the material was healing on a nervous system level, Annie...I am hopeful you could teach others (me!) to lead the course or train others in this. It’s something I am so passionate about in my own work. Looking forward to chatting soon in our one on ones. M

Access to Q and A with Annie Brook
Hear real questions from real people! Annie is a unique educator who understands real life struggles. Annie has helped many adults, children, and infants who were adopted.
Her clients often come from other therapists or coaches who are "stumped," or from parents who changed therapists because they wanted better results.
How Is My Method Different?
What people don't know is that you can change the brain to change the pain.
- I know how to get to the root of emotional imprints, and use specific types of movement that prune out hyper-sensitivity, right in the brain!
- I help people access implicit memory (before thought) that lodges in the primitive brain as protective responses and shows up as sensation
- I give people new information through movement that re-informs the brain
My methods work. I designed and tested them in clinical practice. I have been in practice for over 40 years! Results last. People graduate from therapy.
Children learned to bond and settle, and adults to not "get hooked" in the "frustration despair cycle" with their adopted child.
You are probably worn out by now, and don't really think there is much more you can do to heal. After all, adoption is a real and permanent experience! But if you don't try this, you won't know that you really can get some relief.

I love to support professional learning skills for my clients of all ages. Healing adoption imprints is one of the best things you can give yourself or your clients...
A mother's precocious 9 month old would not settle and rest. We did a warm pool session and repaired that "sense of safety" in the womb. The infant "rebonded" with her new parents and immediately began to settle and relax.
A couple who adopted was losing their relationship due to the stress of parenting an adopted child. They are using my methods to reclaim health and quality of focus in their marriage...and then using the same strategies to help their child relax and gain confidence.
A family with 2 adopted children from China is finally getting relief and the kids are changing their behaviors! (they also got my book, The Adopted Parents Handbook which is a free bonus when you sign up for the course)

Testimonials
"As a Somatic Movement Educator (a student of Body-Mind Centering for over 25 years), and someone who has their MSW, Annie's work helped not only bridge my mental health training with all the somatic work I have done, it opened up new worlds in my own healing process via the realms of Perinatal Psychology (grounded in embodiment). I feel like I am just beginning- I feel greatly resourced from her Healing Birth Trauma course and sessions, I am feeling pretty excited and fearless, and yet wiser and more relational, about doing more of this work in the future!" J
"I found Annie to be very skilled in holding the space of the collective and tending the field. I am in awe of how much I could learn from her, almost to feeling intimidated! Yet I have a new spaces within self- seeds to sprout and nourish- that I believe will allow me to become more and more regulated both in relationship with others and relationship within self. These are big gifts!" anonymous
"there is not a day that goes by that I am not grateful for Annie and her body of work. The birth patterns that were held in the cells of my body affected all of my relationships ~ I feel blessed to now have a large toolbox of resources and the somatic re-learning of memories my body knew but my mind and heart couldn't remember ~ all of my relationships transformed and I have a language and deep understanding with which to work with them from!" JR
"In her courses, Annie lovingly takes us through early imprints that underlie our adult connections, then provides practices for inner work on the path to deepening intimacy. Annie’s view into adult relationship is from the inside out and this book is a gem for all of us."
