Tatiana Turo-Handy, PsyD., PMH-C
Psychologist, PsyD. PMH-C
Infertility can be an emotionally exhausting experience, filled with grief, uncertainty, and a sense of isolation. As a bilingual (Spanish/English) psychologist and PMH‑C certified clinician, I provide compassionate, evidence‑based support for individuals and couples navigating fertility challenges, medical treatments, and the complex emotions that arise throughout the journey. Therapy offers a space to process sadness, anxiety, frustration, and hope, while strengthening coping skills and rebuilding a sense of connection and resilience.

Melissa LaCour
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Adoption is a lifelong experience — not a single event. I work with the full adoption constellation: adult and teen adoptees navigating identity, grief, and attachment; adoptive parents learning how to support their children and themselves; birth parents carrying grief that rarely gets acknowledged; and families touched by domestic, international, foster care, and transracial adoption. As an adoptee myself, with adoption competency training, I bring both clinical expertise and lived understanding to this work. The issues adoption creates don't resolve in childhood — they show up in your relationships, your sense of self, and your capacity for intimacy long into adulthood.
8 Years Experience
Online in Akron, OH
Akron's identity as the 'Rubber City' — once the world capital of tire manufacturing — has given way to a post-industrial economy navigating transformation, and therapists here frequently address the long-term psychological effects of deindustrialization: economic stress, community grief, and the identity challenges of a workforce that has had to reinvent itself across generations. The city is home to the University of Akron and has a growing health sciences and polymer science sector, creating a more economically diverse population than its industrial reputation suggests. Summa Health and Cleveland Clinic Akron General provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community concentrated in West Akron, Fairlawn, and the Highland Square neighborhood. Akron's significant Black community and the city's ongoing recovery from decades of economic decline shape a therapy culture in which community resilience and racial equity are recurring clinical themes.
