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. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
The grief and anxiety of infertility can be heartbreaking and isolating. Decisions about how many steps to take to build your family are often overwhelming and can tax even the healthiest relationships. It is often hard to give voice to the jealousy, shame, and anger that accompany seeing others easily get pregnant and not being able to build a family the way you expected. I offer a supportive, warm, empathic approach to help you process those emotions, regain a sense of steadiness, and move forward with acceptance, peace, and clarity.

Kristy Fujiura Counseling
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Psy.D.
You never thought this would be so hard. You never thought this would happen to you. You’re broken-hearted. Why does it seem like everyone else’s body seems to be able to do what yours can’t? You feel helpless and hopeless.
And the worst part is that you feel so very alone. You’re surrounded by people who don’t know what to say, or who end up saying something that hurts you. They don’t understand how tiring it is to feel joy for someone else while you grieve for yourself. So you feel all the feelings - angry, anxious, sad, desperate. All while keeping that smile on your face. At every baby shower, every pregnancy announcement, every gender reveal.
You’ve been carrying this alone for long enough. I’ve been there too. Your pain is real. Will you let me journey with you?

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.
