How to help a child get over the separation pain

Hi,

I just joined in today. I am a foster parent to two kids. They are siblings. The eldest one 4 years old is having a problem dealing with the fact that she does not understand why she has to visit the mom and then come back to us. we have explained this through family therapy and she seemed fine with the explanation, now after a couple of months she is back to square one. She seems in a lot of inside pain( it is difficult to explain the pain, but I am sure you all can understand it ). I try to get her to react and maybe cry but she refuses to. Can anyone suggest what we can do to help her without involving more therapists ?

Thanks
Bo
