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.

Melissa LaCour
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Adoption is a lifelong experience — not a single event. I work with the full adoption constellation: adult and teen adoptees navigating identity, grief, and attachment; adoptive parents learning how to support their children and themselves; birth parents carrying grief that rarely gets acknowledged; and families touched by domestic, international, foster care, and transracial adoption. As an adoptee myself, with adoption competency training, I bring both clinical expertise and lived understanding to this work. The issues adoption creates don't resolve in childhood — they show up in your relationships, your sense of self, and your capacity for intimacy long into adulthood.

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.

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. 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.
