Infertility
Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Infertility and adoption journeys are deeply emotional experiences that can bring hope, grief, joy, and uncertainty—all at once. I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and families as they navigate the complex emotions and decisions that accompany both infertility and the adoption process.
For those facing infertility, therapy offers a safe and compassionate space to process feelings of loss, guilt, anger, and disappointment. Together, we work to reduce the isolation that so often accompanies fertility challenges, strengthen coping strategies, and improve communication between partners as they move through difficult choices about treatment, timing, or next steps.
For adoptive and pre-adoptive parents, my work focuses on preparing emotionally for the realities of adoption, understanding attachment and trauma-informed parenting, and navigating the evolving relationships between birth families, adoptive families, and children. I also work with individuals experiencing post-adoption adjustment issues, including identity changes, unexpected stressors, or grief over unmet expectations.
Using cognitive-behavioral and family systems approaches, therapy focuses on helping clients identify and manage anxious or depressive symptoms, cultivate resilience, and foster a sense of empowerment through each phase of the journey.
My goal is to provide steady, compassionate guidance through life’s most sensitive transitions—helping clients find strength, understanding, and meaning along the way.

Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Experiences related to infertility and adoption can bring intense emotions, stress, grief, uncertainty, and complex relationship challenges for couples. Gottman Method couples therapy offers a supportive space to navigate these experiences together with greater understanding, communication, and emotional connection. Therapy actively guides couples through difficult emotions, strengthens their partnership during periods of uncertainty, and creates space for both shared and individual experiences within the journey to parenthood. Whether couples are coping with fertility struggles or exploring adoption, they often are confronted with difficulties in their sexual life. Therapy opens conversations so sexuality can be a source of love, connection, and healing during these tumultuous times.

Infertility
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Infertility and adoption are often talked about in overly simplified, polished ways—focused on outcomes instead of the complexity it takes to get there. What’s often left out are the layers of grief, loss, waiting, uncertainty, and the emotional toll of navigating systems that can feel invasive, inequitable, and out of your control. People are quick to offer platitudes or silver linings, while you’re left holding experiences that don’t fit neatly into those narratives. Cultural expectations around parenthood, family, and what it means to have children can add even more pressure, especially when your path doesn’t follow what’s been normalized or expected.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t rush you to acceptance or try to reframe your experience into something more “positive.” We make space for the full reality—grief alongside hope, anger alongside longing, and the complicated decisions that come with both infertility and adoption. We also name the systemic and cultural dynamics at play, including access to care, bias within medical and adoption systems, and the ways certain family structures are prioritized over others. Together, we help you process what you’ve been through, navigate ongoing decisions, and stay connected to yourself in the midst of it. This work is not about forcing closure—it’s about supporting you in moving through something that is deeply personal, often painful, and deserving of more honesty than it usually gets.

Infertility
Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed counseling for individuals and couples navigating infertility, adoption-related stress, pregnancy loss, fertility challenges, and the emotional impact these experiences can have on identity, relationships, and mental health. These deeply personal journeys often bring grief, anxiety, depression, feelings of isolation, relationship strain, uncertainty about the future, and emotional overwhelm.
Brad takes a holistic and compassionate approach to infertility and adoption counseling, helping clients process the emotional complexity of these experiences in a safe and supportive environment. Therapy provides space to explore grief, expectations, identity concerns, past trauma, and the emotional impact of medical or life circumstances related to fertility and family building.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process emotional pain, reduce distress, and build resilience during difficult life transitions. Therapy focuses on restoring emotional balance, strengthening coping skills, and supporting clients in making meaningful, values-aligned decisions about their next steps.
Infertility and adoption-related experiences can also surface unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, or long-standing emotional pain. Brad’s approach helps clients understand these deeper layers while also supporting present-day emotional needs, communication within relationships, and healthy decision-making moving forward.
Therapy is collaborative, individualized, and focused on creating a supportive space where clients feel heard, validated, and understood. The goal is to help individuals and couples navigate these challenges with greater clarity, emotional stability, and connection while moving toward healing and hope.
Healing is possible, even in deeply painful and uncertain circumstances. With the right support, clients can find meaning, resilience, and emotional peace as they move forward on their unique path.
