Middle Path Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW, LPC, PLPC
We support individuals and couples navigating infertility, pregnancy loss, and the emotional complexity of adoption journeys. These experiences often carry layers of grief, uncertainty, isolation, and difficult decisions that others may not fully understand. Many clients struggle with feelings of loss, shame, anger, or fear about the future, while also trying to function in their daily lives. Our approach provides a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to process these emotions, honor the reality of what has been lost or changed, and explore what comes next. We help clients reconnect with themselves, strengthen their relationships, and move forward in ways that feel emotionally grounded, authentic, and aligned with their values - whatever their path may look like.

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.

Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Infertility is a grief that our culture doesn't know how to hold. It's invisible, cyclical and relentless — and often accompanied by isolation because people around you don't know what to say. Whether you're navigating infertility, loss, the decision to stop trying, or the complex emotions that can accompany adoption, Simple Empathy offers a space where the full weight of your experience is welcome. No toxic positivity. No pressure to feel hopeful before you're ready. Just honest, present support for one of the hardest things a person can carry.

Having been through infertility treatment with my partner many years ago, and having gone through the County Adoption training, and working with many adoptive families over the years, I have some perspective on these issues that some therapists may not.

Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Experiences related to infertility and adoption can bring intense emotions, stress, grief, uncertainty, and complex relationship challenges for couples. Gottman Method couples therapy offers a supportive space to navigate these experiences together with greater understanding, communication, and emotional connection. Therapy actively guides couples through difficult emotions, strengthens their partnership during periods of uncertainty, and creates space for both shared and individual experiences within the journey to parenthood. Whether couples are coping with fertility struggles or exploring adoption, they often are confronted with difficulties in their sexual life. Therapy opens conversations so sexuality can be a source of love, connection, and healing during these tumultuous times.

Infertility
Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience working with clients who have experienced infertility struggles and/or have attempted pregnancy with the help of an egg donor, sperm donor, gestational carrier, and/or IVF. Many people in this situation find it extremely beneficial to work with a therapist to help them cope as best they can with the stress and sense of loss they have been experiencing and to help navigate the paths they would like to take moving forward in their lives. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.

Dr. George Lough
Psychologist, Ph.D., S.E.P.
Psychotherapy can help a person deal with the multiple emotions of sadness, grief, and frustration of infertility, and also help process the choices available. Adoption also involves deep emotions, whichever part of the adoption triangle you are on, that psychotherapy can help you understand, process, and move through.

Dr. Jadah Petty
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Clinical Psychologist
For many adoptees, they have not had the opportunity to explore their adoptive identity and understand how their adoption has shaped the ways they see themselves and others. Understanding the myths around adoption and exploring it means to be adopted is something I can offer in therapy.

Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Infertility and the adoption process can bring overwhelming emotions—grief, hope, frustration, and uncertainty. Therapy provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process the emotional ups and downs, strengthen coping strategies, and find meaning through the journey. Whether you’re facing fertility challenges, exploring adoption, or adjusting to life after these transitions, therapy can help you manage stress, nurture your relationships, and care for your emotional well-being.

Infertility
Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work closely with individuals and couples navigating infertility and the many paths to building a family, including adoption and assisted reproduction. These experiences often bring a unique mix of grief, uncertainty, hope, and pressure, and I provide both therapeutic support and practical guidance throughout the process.
In addition to therapy, I offer psychoeducation to help clients better understand and manage the emotional aspects of family building, as well as comprehensive psychological evaluations required for adoption, surrogacy, and donor-related processes. I understand how time-sensitive these steps can be, and—based on both my professional experience and personal understanding—I prioritize these appointments, offering a quick turnaround and minimal wait whenever possible.
My goal is to provide a steady, informed, and compassionate presence during what can be an intensely emotional journey, helping clients move forward with clarity, resilience, and confidence.

Lisa J. Taylor
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Navigating the paths of infertility and adoption can be deeply emotional and complex. I provide a compassionate, affirming space for individuals and couples exploring all family-building options--including fertility treatments, adoption, remaining child-free, or finding peace in uncertainty. My approach honors every journey and every choice, recognizing that there is no one "right" way to create or define a family. Together, we'll work through the hope, growth, and even grief that can come with these experiences, helping you feel grounded, supported, and empowered in whatever path you choose. Please note that I also provide parenting sessions for families with adopted or foster children. I also provide pre-adoption psychological evaluations for potential parents as part of international adoption requirements.
