Description
Confidential adoption practices affect the lives of adopted individuals long into adulthood and can present such people with a sense of lacking a consolidated identity. How society may perceive the adoptive individual as deficient due to it's lack of biological ties can aggravate the developmental stages necessary for an adopted individual to attain identity consolidation. Art therapy interventions can successfully address these concerns facilitating the integration of split off aspects of adopted individual, providing for a corrective understanding of the adopted individuals perceptions of self esteem and identity.
