"Daniela is the founder of With Siblings, an organization that exists to support the birthchildren in foster and adoptive families by equipping parents and professionals through training and resources. Daniela is a self-identified birth kid. Her parents fostered when she was a child and eventually adopted her youngest sibling. Having grown up in a home that fostered and adopted, Daniela was a temporary sibling to many children. Now, Daniela and her husband have children by both birth and adoption. While Daniela has a variety of experience in social work contexts, she has spent most of her career working in foster care and adoption. Daniela Coats is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas. She is currently a therapist at Be Still Counseling and Consulting in Dallas/Fort Worth. She has contributed to professional writings on the subject, and is the author of The Day Lily Turned (un)Invisible, a children's book written specifically for biological kids in foster families."
