While the IVF process can be an exciting hopeful time, an individual/couple want to ensure their mental health is addressed along the way. Feelings of isolation, depression, anxiety, relationship conflict left untreated and unresolved may have long-term effects on the relationship. Working together in therapy the issues can be addressed including processing thoughts and feelings and learning positive coping skills to utilize during the IVF process.

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.

Omer Harari
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I help individuals manage the stressors of infertility by using an integrative approach using narrative, dynamic, relational, and attachment informed therapy. We work together to manage the feelings that can come with being in a process that can be challenging, uncertain, and open-ended. We build skills to manage uncertainty, anxieties, and isolation, and create safe containers for hope and emotional support, both in therapy and in relationships outside of therapy. I'm familiar and have lived experience with steps commonly involved in IUI, IVF and have experience supporting clients--couples and individuals--in navigating them.

Jennie Steinberg - feminist, queer-affirming therapist
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, PMH-C
I am certified as a perinatal mental health therapist by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, but I find that most clients find my most useful credential in this area to be my lived experience. When you are struggling with trying to conceive, many people feel like they’re losing themself a little bit. It’s so easy to let your whole identity become “person who is failing to make a baby.” This rollercoaster is hard for anyone, but can be especially challenging if your experience includes other complications – miscarriages, past abortions, genetic carrier concerns, or gender dysphoria. If you are currently involved in fertility treatments, you might be juggling the emotions of gratitude and relief with overwhelm, unpredictability, shame, disconnection from your own body, a calendar full of medical appointments, and the experience of being a human pincushion. As an IVF veteran myself, I understand how large a toll this experience can take. When working with clients dealing with infertility, we work, among other things, on expanding your sense of identity and reclaiming yourself as more than a broken baby-making machine, riding the waves of hope and disappointment, untangling shame, reconnecting with your body, coping with anxiety, managing external stressors, navigating your grief over the story you imagined you’d have, and sitting with ambiguity. For help navigating the unruly rollercoaster of infertility, reach out to me. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Infertility
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.
