Infertility
Dr. Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As the adoptive mother of a teen and half of a couple diagnosed with unresolved infertility, I understand the unique experiences of alternative pathways to growing families. I'm here for you, whether you're still considering options (including remaining childless), actively navigating family planning challenges, or in a process of grieving lost dreams - and maybe discovering new opportunities.

Malama Counseling, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Infertility is a disease of the male or female reproductive system defined by the failure to achieve a pregnancy causing profound mental health challenges (anxiety, depression, grief, and emotional trauma). Adoption can be an option to family planning. It is a legal process that permanently transfers all parental rights and responsibilities from a child’s birth parents to adoptive parents. Navigating the system can be challenging and stressful. I had issues with infertility and I have adopted a child.

Infertility
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.
