Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
There is nothing more painful than wanting to have children and being unable to. Infertility issues can bring a tremendous amount of stress to bear on a relationship. Sometime Adoption becomes a part of the conversation when infertility is an issue, and while adoption is a wonderful possibility and noble act, it can also be fraught with anxiety and stress. There is a grief process that happens to bring closure to the possibilities we wish we had and to prepare our hearts for the realities we can have and which we may not have considered before. If you are struggling with issues around infertility and adoption, Growth and Change Counseling is a safe practice that can help you.

Gail Kirk Poust
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Infertility can be a lonely journey. Friends and family may try to be supportive, but it is often hard for them to truly understand the roller coaster of monthly disappointments, the intangible loss of a miscarriage, or the deep yearning every time you see a baby or pregnant belly. I am here to support women in the infertility journey, no matter which stage of the path you are on. I can help you find strategies for managing your stress and making decisions if you are still in the process of trying treatments, or walk with you as you grieve what could have been and build a life of meaning if you are childless-not-by-choice.

Dr. Mitch Keil, PsyD
Psychologist, Keil Psych Group
Infertility can be an extraordinarily lonely experience. It often involves a repeating cycle of hope, waiting, uncertainty, and loss—all while the rest of the world seems to continue moving forward.
The psychological impact can reach far beyond trying to have a child. Infertility and fertility treatment can affect your relationship, sex life, friendships, identity, self-esteem, finances, and even your relationship with your own body. Baby announcements, pregnancies, and seemingly innocent questions from other people can suddenly become painful. Couples may also grieve differently, leaving both partners feeling alone even while going through the same experience.
Our approach to infertility counseling creates a place where you don't have to minimize any of this or stay positive for someone else's comfort. Therapy can help you process grief and disappointment, manage anxiety around fertility treatments or IVF, navigate difficult decisions, communicate more openly with your partner, and work through the complicated emotions that can accompany infertility and pregnancy loss.
There is often grief in infertility even when there hasn't been a single identifiable loss. You may be grieving the timeline you expected, the family you imagined, a sense of control over your body, or the assumption that having children would happen naturally when you were ready.
Therapy won't take away the uncertainty of the process, but it can give you a place to carry it differently—to feel what you're actually feeling, stay connected to yourself and the people you love, and move through an incredibly difficult chapter without having to go through it alone.

Michelle Roberts
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
It's a particular kind of grief, longing for a family and perhaps experiencing many losses along the way. Even the loss of what can't be, or having to shift your understanding of what your identity is or will be in the world, has its own grief journey. The highs and the lows all make sense. I'm here as a steady presence as you figure out what you need most in the life you are building.
