Kinship House provided excellent mental health counseling to our two foster children, whom we did end up adopting. We had been to other agencies, but they didn't really understand attachment problems. Kinship House also understands that much of the counseling is needed by the parents to help THEM meet the special needs of their children day to day. Their support helped us hang in there. They continue to be willing to provide us needed support on an occasional basis.
