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.

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.

Theresa McCay Boutross
Marriage and Family Therapist, LCSW, CADC. CMFT
As an adoptee, a seven-year infertility patient, and a mother who has built her family through adoption, I bring a unique blend of personal and professional experience to my work as an Adoption Competent Therapist. My specialty encompasses a wide range of topics, including identity formation, attachment, closed and open adoptions, loss and grief, and marital stressors. I am dedicated to assisting families navigating life stage challenges, whether they are formed through egg or sperm donation, adoption, or blended family systems.
With a compassionate and informed approach, I provide support and guidance to parents and individuals as they explore the complexities of their experiences, enhancing understanding and fostering healthier relationships. Together, we can create a safe space to address your unique challenges and promote healing and growth within your family. Let’s embark on this transformative journey toward connection and resilience together.
