Dr. Jadah Petty
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Clinical Psychologist
For many adoptees, they have not had the opportunity to explore their adoptive identity and understand how their adoption has shaped the ways they see themselves and others. Understanding the myths around adoption and exploring it means to be adopted is something I can offer in therapy.

Melissa Berschauer
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The road to expanding a family can be an emotional rollercoaster that leaves you feeling lonely, overwhelmed, and disconnected from your own body. I provide a steady, safe space to process the intense grief, anxiety, and identity shifts that come with infertility, IVF, and postpartum depression.

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.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in infertility, my treatment approach encompasses emotional support, coping strategies, and navigating the complex emotional landscape associated with fertility challenges. Through empathetic counseling and therapeutic interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and support groups, I provide individuals and couples with a safe space to process their feelings of grief, frustration, and uncertainty. Together, we explore coping mechanisms to manage stress, anxiety, and depression related to infertility, while also addressing communication challenges and relationship dynamics. Additionally, I offer guidance on decision-making regarding fertility treatments, third-party reproduction options, and exploring alternative paths to parenthood. My goal is to empower individuals and couples to find resilience, hope, and a sense of meaning throughout their fertility journey, fostering emotional well-being and coping skills for the road ahead.
