Anne Dennis, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
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. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Infertility and adoption can bring complex emotions, including grief, hope, uncertainty, guilt, identity questions, and relationship stress. The path to creating or expanding a family may feel isolating, especially when others do not understand the depth of the experience.
I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to process loss, navigate difficult decisions, communicate with loved ones, and cope with uncertainty. For those touched by adoption, therapy may also explore identity, belonging, attachment, cultural connection, and family relationships. Together, we honor your unique journey while strengthening resilience, self-compassion, and emotional well-being.

Elaine Barrington
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As an adoptive parent and professional I particularly enjoy working with parents as they navigate the adoption process. I work with parents both at pre and post placement on the many complex issues associated with adoption. I also work with many later in life parents and am familiar with the many challenges and unique ways that families are often formed at this stage of life. It is helpful to work with someone who understands this unique experience and the challenges and also recognizes the many wonderful ways that we each define family.
