Barry Lipscomb
Hypnotherapist, CHT
Fertility journeys can be quite frustrating, especially as it gets extended and you are not finding success regardless of the path you take. There can be feelings of inadequacy and disappointment that your body is not responding as you would like. After failed attempts at IVF you might find yourself experiencing loss and grieving for the pregnancy that isn't happening. Women and couples often keep their experience to themselves putting on a brave face each day as their journey lingers on. I have worked with women using hypnotherapy to work through this grief and loss, and explore if past trauma or limiting beliefs in their subconscious is affecting their ability to conceive.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people whose path to or through parenthood has been different from what they hoped or imagined. This may include primary or secondary infertility, long periods of trying without a child arriving, pregnancy loss, termination, birth trauma, NICU experiences, postpartum distress, or the complex emotions that can arise before or after adoption.
Many people in this situation feel like they are living in a different world from friends and family. You may be surrounded by pregnancies, baby announcements, or parenting conversations while carrying your own mix of grief, anger, longing, relief, guilt, or numbness.
In our work together, we make space for the full reality of your experience, including the parts that feel confusing or hard to say out loud. We may explore the emotional impact of fertility treatments, medical procedures, NICU stays, long periods of uncertainty, or the decision to stop trying; grief after miscarriage, stillbirth, or other forms of loss, including the loss of a hoped‑for future; the strain these experiences place on relationships and daily life; identity questions around becoming a parent, not becoming a parent, or becoming a parent through adoption; and the layered emotions that can show up during pregnancy, in the NICU, or after a child arrives.
My intention is not to rush you toward acceptance or silver linings, but to offer a place where your story is honored, your feelings make sense, and you do not have to hold this on your own. This is central to my work, and I hold these stories with deep care.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience working with clients who have experienced infertility struggles and/or have attempted pregnancy with the help of an egg donor, sperm donor, gestational carrier, and/or IVF. Many people in this situation find it extremely beneficial to work with a therapist to help them cope as best they can with the stress and sense of loss they have been experiencing and to help navigate the paths they would like to take moving forward in their lives. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see.
