We found ourselves at A Different Angle seeking understanding and healing for our adopted son, Alex. The complexities of his early life left him with questions and emotions that he, and we, were ill-equipped to navigate alone. The Therapeutic Life Story Work service promised a way forward—and it delivered more than we could have hoped for.
From the start, the TLSW process was handled with the utmost sensitivity and professionalism. The team took great care in gathering Alex’s history, piecing together the fragmented parts of his young life with respect and empathy. As parents, we were involved and supported every step of the way, learning alongside Alex as his story unfolded.
The transformation in Alex was profound. With each session, he grew more confident and seemed to carry less weight on his small shoulders. The creation of his Life Story Book was a pivotal moment. It was as if, with every word and picture that filled those pages, Alex reclaimed a piece of himself.
What A Different Angle facilitated for our family wasn’t just therapy; it was the gift of wholeness and understanding. Alex now has a story that he can hold in his hands, one that doesn’t hold him back but propels him forward with confidence and a new-found sense of self.
We are immensely grateful to A Different Angle for their dedication and care. Their work didn’t just change Alex’s life; it changed all of ours. We wholeheartedly recommend their Therapeutic Life Story Work to any family seeking to bridge gaps in understanding and help their child embrace their full narrative with courage and clarity.
