Infertility can create unique challenges within a relationship. It can also strain other relationships. I work with clients to help them navigate the grief of infertility, and to explore what their future options may be.

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.

Having been through infertility treatment with my partner many years ago, and having gone through the County Adoption training, and working with many adoptive families over the years, I have some perspective on these issues that some therapists may not.

Kristy Fujiura Counseling
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Psy.D.
You never thought this would be so hard. You never thought this would happen to you. You’re broken-hearted. Why does it seem like everyone else’s body seems to be able to do what yours can’t? You feel helpless and hopeless.
And the worst part is that you feel so very alone. You’re surrounded by people who don’t know what to say, or who end up saying something that hurts you. They don’t understand how tiring it is to feel joy for someone else while you grieve for yourself. So you feel all the feelings - angry, anxious, sad, desperate. All while keeping that smile on your face. At every baby shower, every pregnancy announcement, every gender reveal.
You’ve been carrying this alone for long enough. I’ve been there too. Your pain is real. Will you let me journey with you?
