Infertility or Adoption
Kathryn Ziemer
Psychologist, PhD
I provide support during the ups and downs of infertility, when facing painful or intrusive medical treatments, and during times of high distress, such when a treatment fails or after a miscarriage. I will help you work through feelings of stress, grief, fear, and other emotions you might be experiencing. We will also work together to help you strengthen the coping skills you already have, develop new coping skills, and more clearly communicate your needs to others.

Infertility or Adoption
Barry Lipscomb
Hypnotherapist, CHT
Fertility journeys can be quite frustrating, especially as it gets extended and you are not finding success regardless of the path you take. There can be feelings of inadequacy and disappointment that your body is not responding as you would like. After failed attempts at IVF you might find yourself experiencing loss and grieving for the pregnancy that isn't happening. Women and couples often keep their experience to themselves putting on a brave face each day as their journey lingers on. I have worked with women using hypnotherapy to work through this grief and loss, and explore if past trauma or limiting beliefs in their subconscious is affecting their ability to conceive.

Infertility or Adoption
Nancy Hayes-Gary, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, MD , Psy.D.
As an adoptive parent who went through infertility treatment many years ago, I’m particularly attuned to how this puts pressure on a couple. It can also be quite overwhelming and can cause people to feel like they are on a roller-coaster ride. Often couples need to come in for support together. Or one partner needs extra support.

Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
Treating infertility and adoption in psychotherapy necessitates a delicate balance of empathy, support, and clinical expertise. In navigating the emotional complexities of infertility, I provide a safe and validating space for individuals to explore their grief, loss, and identity struggles. Through empathetic listening and validation, I help clients process their feelings of sadness, anger, and uncertainty, while also fostering resilience and hope. Additionally, I offer practical coping strategies and support resources to help clients navigate the challenges of fertility treatments and decision-making processes.
