Infertility
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people whose path to or through parenthood has been different from what they hoped or imagined. This may include primary or secondary infertility, long periods of trying without a child arriving, pregnancy loss, termination, birth trauma, NICU experiences, postpartum distress, or the complex emotions that can arise before or after adoption.
Many people in this situation feel like they are living in a different world from friends and family. You may be surrounded by pregnancies, baby announcements, or parenting conversations while carrying your own mix of grief, anger, longing, relief, guilt, or numbness.
In our work together, we make space for the full reality of your experience, including the parts that feel confusing or hard to say out loud. We may explore the emotional impact of fertility treatments, medical procedures, NICU stays, long periods of uncertainty, or the decision to stop trying; grief after miscarriage, stillbirth, or other forms of loss, including the loss of a hoped‑for future; the strain these experiences place on relationships and daily life; identity questions around becoming a parent, not becoming a parent, or becoming a parent through adoption; and the layered emotions that can show up during pregnancy, in the NICU, or after a child arrives.
My intention is not to rush you toward acceptance or silver linings, but to offer a place where your story is honored, your feelings make sense, and you do not have to hold this on your own. This is central to my work, and I hold these stories with deep care.

Infertility
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.
7 Years Experience
Online in Gainesville, FL (Online Only)
Gainesville is home to the University of Florida, one of the largest universities in the United States by enrollment, and the city's character and mental health landscape are overwhelmingly shaped by this—a huge, young student population with significant academic, social, and identity-related mental health needs, supported by one of Florida's most comprehensive university counseling systems. UF Health Shands Hospital provides one of the state's strongest behavioral health services, making Gainesville an important regional resource for psychiatric care across north Florida. The population dynamic creates a city that is both progressive and college-town oriented, surrounded by a more rural north Florida context, and therapists in Gainesville work across a wide range of populations and presenting concerns. Common therapy concerns include academic stress, identity development, anxiety, substance use, young adult life transitions, and the particular challenges of a college community navigating mental health support often for the first time.
