Dr. Rosy Saenz-Sierzega
Psychologist, PhD, MA, NBCC
Infertility can involve a unique combination of grief, disappointment, uncertainty, and loss of control. I help individuals and couples navigate the emotional impact of infertility and reproductive treatment, cope with difficult decisions and setbacks, communicate with each other, and maintain their relationship through an extremely stressful experience.

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.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
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. Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As the adoptive mother of a teen and half of a couple diagnosed with unresolved infertility, I understand the unique experiences of alternative pathways to growing families. I'm here for you, whether you're still considering options (including remaining childless), actively navigating family planning challenges, or in a process of grieving lost dreams - and maybe discovering new opportunities.
