Infertility
Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Infertility is a grief that our culture doesn't know how to hold. It's invisible, cyclical and relentless — and often accompanied by isolation because people around you don't know what to say. Whether you're navigating infertility, loss, the decision to stop trying, or the complex emotions that can accompany adoption, Simple Empathy offers a space where the full weight of your experience is welcome. No toxic positivity. No pressure to feel hopeful before you're ready. Just honest, present support for one of the hardest things a person can carry.

Infertility can create unique challenges within a relationship. It can also strain other relationships. I work with clients to help them navigate the grief of infertility, and to explore what their future options may be.

Infertility
Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in infertility, my treatment approach encompasses emotional support, coping strategies, and navigating the complex emotional landscape associated with fertility challenges. Through empathetic counseling and therapeutic interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and support groups, I provide individuals and couples with a safe space to process their feelings of grief, frustration, and uncertainty. Together, we explore coping mechanisms to manage stress, anxiety, and depression related to infertility, while also addressing communication challenges and relationship dynamics. Additionally, I offer guidance on decision-making regarding fertility treatments, third-party reproduction options, and exploring alternative paths to parenthood. My goal is to empower individuals and couples to find resilience, hope, and a sense of meaning throughout their fertility journey, fostering emotional well-being and coping skills for the road ahead.

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.
