Reactive Attachment Disorder With Carrie O'Toole

Carrie O’Toole, M.A. is an Attachment-Based Intervention Specialist, Board Certified Christian Life Coach, Certified Crisis Responder, and founder of Carrie O’Toole Ministries. Carrie uses her coaching, writing, speaking, podcasting, and documentary film to help others overcome issues related to attachment, trauma, and grief. The O’Toole family adopted a child from a Vietnamese orphanage at the age of 3 ½.  Even with state-mandated training on attachment, and a previous adoption, Carrie admits they were totally unprepared to raise a child with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). After 8 years of therapy, special education, prayer, surgeries, and hospitalization, they made the heart-wrenching decision to place their son with a family from their church. Carrie is the author of Relinquished: When Love Means Letting Go, and producer of the documentary film Forfeiting Sanity.
