Alan Brandis, Ph.D.

Having been through infertility treatment with my partner many years ago, and having gone through the County Adoption training, and working with many adoptive families over the years, I have some perspective on these issues that some therapists may not.

Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Infertility and the adoption process can bring overwhelming emotions—grief, hope, frustration, and uncertainty. Therapy provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process the emotional ups and downs, strengthen coping strategies, and find meaning through the journey. Whether you’re facing fertility challenges, exploring adoption, or adjusting to life after these transitions, therapy can help you manage stress, nurture your relationships, and care for your emotional well-being.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work closely with individuals and couples navigating infertility and the many paths to building a family, including adoption and assisted reproduction. These experiences often bring a unique mix of grief, uncertainty, hope, and pressure, and I provide both therapeutic support and practical guidance throughout the process.
In addition to therapy, I offer psychoeducation to help clients better understand and manage the emotional aspects of family building, as well as comprehensive psychological evaluations required for adoption, surrogacy, and donor-related processes. I understand how time-sensitive these steps can be, and—based on both my professional experience and personal understanding—I prioritize these appointments, offering a quick turnaround and minimal wait whenever possible.
My goal is to provide a steady, informed, and compassionate presence during what can be an intensely emotional journey, helping clients move forward with clarity, resilience, and confidence.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience working with clients who have experienced infertility struggles and/or have attempted pregnancy with the help of an egg donor, sperm donor, gestational carrier, and/or IVF. Many people in this situation find it extremely beneficial to work with a therapist to help them cope as best they can with the stress and sense of loss they have been experiencing and to help navigate the paths they would like to take moving forward in their lives. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.
