Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
Infertility, pregnancy loss, and the adoption process can be deeply isolating and misunderstood, even by well‑meaning people. In our work, we make space for grief, anger, hope, and complex family dynamics while supporting you in making informed, values‑based decisions along your reproductive or adoption journey.

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.

Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Infertility and the adoption process can bring overwhelming emotions—grief, hope, frustration, and uncertainty. Therapy provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process the emotional ups and downs, strengthen coping strategies, and find meaning through the journey. Whether you’re facing fertility challenges, exploring adoption, or adjusting to life after these transitions, therapy can help you manage stress, nurture your relationships, and care for your emotional well-being.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
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.
