  • Summary

  • Monique Pangari was born in Australia in 1972 at the height of the ‘Forced Adoption Era.’ Relinquished at birth and adopted at 6 weeks of age, she grew up in a family with two older adopted siblings. As a result of this complex experience, along with the rollercoaster of FOUR ‘search and reunion’ journeys, early pregnancy and parenting, and now estrangement from multiple family members, she has now ‘come out of the closet’ (again) to talk about the detrimental impacts of relinquishment. Monique was driven to study psychology and psychotherapy to try to make sense of something no one was talking about. She has spent her 30-year career studying, integrating and teaching others about the significance of relational attachment, the impacts of pre-verbal trauma, and family dynamics where relational attachment disruption has occurred. Monique has worked with many adoptees, birth mothers and adoptive parents, both in a government-funded organization (PASQ) and in private practice. She specializes in mind-body integration for addressing complex developmental trauma. She has also trained hundreds of professionals in expressive, symbolic and somatic trauma recovery processes. Through her business, Healing Adoption Trauma, Monique offers therapy, consultation, supervision, online webinars, and training for professionals — specifically for adoptees, their families and other providers working with this population. Her work centers on healing the pain of relinquishment trauma, family separation and cultural loss, with a special focus on the experiences and impact of mother-infant separation. ‘Adoptees Connect,’ a free monthly meeting for adult adoptees, is hosted and facilitated by Monique and her partner (also adopted) on the Sunshine Coast, Qld, Australia.

If you or someone you know would like to tell their adoption story on the podcast (anyone in the adoptee constellation), please send an email to mindyourownkarma@gmail.com, and your story will be considered for the podcast. _________ Due to the LONG-LASTING EMOTIONAL FALLOUT that can be part of adoption, I highly support the GENTLE HEALING SUPPORT of SMGI: Somatic Mindful Guided Imagery.

This podcast's mission is on adoption education. If you have an expertise that you think would be beneficial to anyone touched by adoption and would like to be on the podcast, get in touch with me. I love to help fellow adoptees by helping to promote your latest project or expertise. It's time WE educate the world!!
