Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Infertility and the journey toward adoption are among the most emotionally demanding experiences adults and couples face — marked by hope, grief, uncertainty, and an emotional toll that is rarely acknowledged by those around you. As a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in reproductive mental health, fertility-related anxiety, pregnancy loss, IVF emotional support, and adoption adjustment, I provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy tailored specifically to the unique challenges of family building. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and trauma-informed care, I help individuals and couples navigate each stage of the process with greater emotional resilience and clarity. Telehealth therapy for infertility available across 40+ states.

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. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people whose path to or through parenthood has been different from what they hoped or imagined. This may include primary or secondary infertility, long periods of trying without a child arriving, pregnancy loss, termination, birth trauma, NICU experiences, postpartum distress, or the complex emotions that can arise before or after adoption.
Many people in this situation feel like they are living in a different world from friends and family. You may be surrounded by pregnancies, baby announcements, or parenting conversations while carrying your own mix of grief, anger, longing, relief, guilt, or numbness.
In our work together, we make space for the full reality of your experience, including the parts that feel confusing or hard to say out loud. We may explore the emotional impact of fertility treatments, medical procedures, NICU stays, long periods of uncertainty, or the decision to stop trying; grief after miscarriage, stillbirth, or other forms of loss, including the loss of a hoped‑for future; the strain these experiences place on relationships and daily life; identity questions around becoming a parent, not becoming a parent, or becoming a parent through adoption; and the layered emotions that can show up during pregnancy, in the NICU, or after a child arrives.
My intention is not to rush you toward acceptance or silver linings, but to offer a place where your story is honored, your feelings make sense, and you do not have to hold this on your own. This is central to my work, and I hold these stories with deep care.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed counseling for individuals and couples navigating infertility, adoption-related stress, pregnancy loss, fertility challenges, and the emotional impact these experiences can have on identity, relationships, and mental health. These deeply personal journeys often bring grief, anxiety, depression, feelings of isolation, relationship strain, uncertainty about the future, and emotional overwhelm.
Brad takes a holistic and compassionate approach to infertility and adoption counseling, helping clients process the emotional complexity of these experiences in a safe and supportive environment. Therapy provides space to explore grief, expectations, identity concerns, past trauma, and the emotional impact of medical or life circumstances related to fertility and family building.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process emotional pain, reduce distress, and build resilience during difficult life transitions. Therapy focuses on restoring emotional balance, strengthening coping skills, and supporting clients in making meaningful, values-aligned decisions about their next steps.
Infertility and adoption-related experiences can also surface unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, or long-standing emotional pain. Brad’s approach helps clients understand these deeper layers while also supporting present-day emotional needs, communication within relationships, and healthy decision-making moving forward.
Therapy is collaborative, individualized, and focused on creating a supportive space where clients feel heard, validated, and understood. The goal is to help individuals and couples navigate these challenges with greater clarity, emotional stability, and connection while moving toward healing and hope.
Healing is possible, even in deeply painful and uncertain circumstances. With the right support, clients can find meaning, resilience, and emotional peace as they move forward on their unique path.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in infertility, my treatment approach encompasses emotional support, coping strategies, and navigating the complex emotional landscape associated with fertility challenges.

Together, we explore coping mechanisms to manage stress, anxiety, and depression related to infertility, while also addressing communication challenges and relationship dynamics. Additionally, I offer guidance on decision-making regarding fertility treatments, third-party reproduction options, and exploring alternative paths to parenthood. My goal is to empower individuals and couples to find resilience, hope, and a sense of meaning throughout their fertility journey, fostering emotional well-being and coping skills for the road ahead.

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.

Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Infertility and adoption journeys are deeply emotional experiences that can bring hope, grief, joy, and uncertainty—all at once. I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and families as they navigate the complex emotions and decisions that accompany both infertility and the adoption process.
For those facing infertility, therapy offers a safe and compassionate space to process feelings of loss, guilt, anger, and disappointment. Together, we work to reduce the isolation that so often accompanies fertility challenges, strengthen coping strategies, and improve communication between partners as they move through difficult choices about treatment, timing, or next steps.
For adoptive and pre-adoptive parents, my work focuses on preparing emotionally for the realities of adoption, understanding attachment and trauma-informed parenting, and navigating the evolving relationships between birth families, adoptive families, and children. I also work with individuals experiencing post-adoption adjustment issues, including identity changes, unexpected stressors, or grief over unmet expectations.
Using cognitive-behavioral and family systems approaches, therapy focuses on helping clients identify and manage anxious or depressive symptoms, cultivate resilience, and foster a sense of empowerment through each phase of the journey.
My goal is to provide steady, compassionate guidance through life’s most sensitive transitions—helping clients find strength, understanding, and meaning along the way.

Experiences related to infertility and adoption can bring intense emotions, stress, grief, uncertainty, and complex relationship challenges for couples.

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.

Therapy opens conversations so sexuality can be a source of love, connection, and healing during these tumultuous times.

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.

Lincoln is home to the University of Nebraska and serves as Nebraska's state capital, giving it a demographic character — young, educated, and government-oriented — that generates consistent demand for therapists working with academic stress, young adult identity, and the pressures of public service careers. The city has a growing Sudanese, Somali, and Latino refugee and immigrant community that creates meaningful demand for culturally informed and multilingual therapists who work with resettlement stress and cross-cultural family dynamics. Bryan Health and CHI Health provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community. Lincoln's relative affordability and tight-knit community character give it a therapy culture that values accessibility and practical, evidence-based approaches.
