Infertility or Adoption
Dr. Chiara Simeone-DiFrancesco
Psychologist, PhD
I love helping couples create the family they want. If you are infertile, we can examine the sorrow and grief you have felt and its's effect on your life, and also consider moving beyond it to other solutions. I often help adoptive parents with evaluations for adoption or preparing them to handle the adopted child or supporting them working through the process of adoption.

Across Counseling llc
Counselor/Therapist, MSW, LCSW, CSAC, LPC
Often, adopted children have thoughts, fears, confusion and questions over their life span. Many of these children have also suffered from early abuse and or neglect as well. When attachment to a primary caregiver does not develop, or is interrupted, there are actual changes in the brain. A competent therapist must be able to build emotionally connected relationships, have and be able to teach about the brain connection, and apply good interventions specific to each child’s history. Parents must be fully involved with treatment and are a life-long leading treatment team member for their child. Kathianne Smith, adoption specialist at Across Counseling, is an Adoption-Competent Therapist and also a TAC graduate. TAC is the prestigious Training for Adoption Competency program that trains mental health therapists nationwide. This certifies that Kathianne has the specialized skills to address the unique needs of adoptive, kinship and foster families. Over the last 30 years Kathianne has had extensive experience working with children and families.

Cynthia Leslie
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, MA, CPRS
Couples who face infertility can often struggle in their relationships. Infertility and miscarriage can also cause a crisis of faith because people question why God allows it. I can help couples process their loss, pain, and issues related to their faith.
