Eve Picower
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Are you struggling to get pregnant? Or have you experienced pregnancy loss? Are you thinking about, or have you started, infertility treatments? Are you trying to conceive on your own? Or are you and your partner processing things and coping differently? This can be a very stressful process, sometimes accompanied by many feelings such as anxiety, depression, grief, shame, anger, and isolation. I would like to help you through your experience, wherever that may be, to process feelings, and to manage next steps.

Michael Nakhla
Psychiatrist, MD
The journey through infertility or adoption involves unique emotional challenges including grief, uncertainty, and navigating complex medical or legal processes. I offer specialized support for individuals and couples facing these struggles, providing a space to process disappointment, maintain hope, and strengthen your relationship. My goal is to help you build resilience and find meaning during this challenging chapter.

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.
