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.

Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in infertility and adoption.
Infertility carries a grief that is cumulative and cyclical: another month of hope, another negative test, another round of treatment that asks a great deal of your body and your marriage. It is also frequently invisible, mourned privately while everyone around you announces pregnancies. Adoption brings its own terrain, including a process that requires you to be evaluated, waiting without a timeline, and feelings about not conceiving that do not simply resolve once a child arrives.
I work psychoanalytically, which means there is room for grief that has had nowhere to go. What you are carrying has an unconscious logic worth understanding, often touching questions about your body, your worth, and what you assumed your life would hold. Mourning does not run on a schedule here.
If you are moving through infertility treatment, adoption, or the long uncertainty of either, I would be glad to talk.
