Infertility or Adoption
Amy R Swenson, MA
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Fertility issues, the use of Assisted Reproductive Technology (i.e. IUI, IVF), and third party reproduction (i.e. use of donor gametes, surrogacy/gestational carrier) can be overwhelming. I provide therapy for those experiencing stress while yearning to create a family.

Infertility or Adoption
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.

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.

Teresa Rimmer
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Infertility can be agonizing. A support person not involved in your relationship can be very helpful as a sounding board to process the pain and the decision to keep going or adopt.
