Infertility or Adoption
Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Struggles with fertility, miscarriages, and challenges with having a child of your own can significantly impact your life in a negative way, making it hard to go about your daily life as you have in the past. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can learn how to cope with these issues and move forward in a way that will best meet your needs. You can understand what you can and can't control, and if any of your own behaviors and conflicts are contributing to your unhappiness. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

Infertility or Adoption
Cicek Erdem
Psychologist, PhD
The path to parenthood is not always straightforward, and fertility struggles can bring profound grief, uncertainty, isolation, and strain on relationships. You may be navigating IVF, pregnancy loss, recurrent disappointment, difficult medical decisions, or the emotional complexity of wanting something deeply that feels uncertain or out of reach. These experiences often stir questions of identity, control, partnership, and hope. Therapy can offer a space to process grief, navigate difficult decisions, strengthen relationships, and make sense of the many emotions that arise along the way, including exploring alternative paths to parenthood when relevant.

Infertility or Adoption
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Infertility and the journey toward adoption are among the most emotionally demanding experiences adults and couples face — marked by hope, grief, uncertainty, and an emotional toll that is rarely acknowledged by those around you. As a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in reproductive mental health, fertility-related anxiety, pregnancy loss, IVF emotional support, and adoption adjustment, I provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy tailored specifically to the unique challenges of family building. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and trauma-informed care, I help individuals and couples navigate each stage of the process with greater emotional resilience and clarity. Telehealth therapy for infertility available across 40+ states.

Marina Goldenberg
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC
I work with clients experiencing infertility, and other challenges to family building. We work on the impact of infertility on mental health, relationships, and plans/hopes for the future. When your vision of family feels unattainable, you experience it as a loss, and it can be difficult to process those emotions, and to figure out how to move forward. It can become hard to relate and connect with a partner, friends and family, especially if others around you aren't struggling in the same way, and it can be very isolating and lonely. It doesn't have to be that way. I help clients process this experience, and support them as they navigate the different challenges arising out of fertility struggles.

Infertility or Adoption
Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Some of the most joyous moments in life also have the potential to be the most painful. The world doesn’t seem fair when some women get pregnant just by looking at their partners, or so it would seem, while others try for months, and then begin to time their cycles, and finally start exploring other options. The infertility journey is long and confusing—full of needle pricks, doctor’s appointments and strange or inappropriate questions from friends and loved ones. And if you’re part of a queer couple, you can multiply those strange and inappropriate questions by a factor of two, or maybe three. But then it happens, you get the news: X number of healthy embryos. Yay! Except they are all boys, you really wanted a girl, but that’s okay, you just want a healthy baby. But then, your first implantation doesn’t take. So you have to try again. Success! At least at first. Miscarriages are also an all too common, intensely painful part of this process. It starts to feel like your body is betraying you. Or what if you don’t have all of the necessary parts to carry the child and you need to use a surrogate? The first one doesn’t work out, and the second one doesn’t pass psychological testing and number three, well, unfortunately after three unsuccessful tries, it’s time to look for number four. When will it end? And when will it be your turn for a healthy baby? Therapeutic support from someone who understands the process can help you feel less alone as you navigate the decisions, the ups and downs, and the journey to becoming your own self-educated endocrinologist (kidding, sort of…).

Infertility and adoption can be emotionally complex experiences that include grief, identity questions, relationship stress, and difficult decisions. Therapy can be a place to process these experiences and to have space for the emotions that don’t always get acknowledged elsewhere.
