You may look like you’re holding it all together on the outside, but inside you’re carrying grief, anxiety, or the quiet pain of an infertility journey. Therapy can be a place where you don’t have to be strong all the time. Hi, I’m Nicole Merrill, LCSW. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by infertility, grief, anxiety, depression, or the emotional complexities of adoption, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate it by yourself. I work with adults who are facing some of life’s most tender and complicated experiences. In our first few sessions, you can expect a space where you don’t have to filter or perform.
Therapy with me is a place to be honest about what you’re carrying and to feel supported as we begin to make sense of it together.
I am passionate about this work because life can be both incredibly beautiful and incredibly painful. Having someone walk beside you during the difficult moments can make all the difference. If you're ready to begin that process, I would be honored to support you.

Adoption, infertility, and grief can bring complex emotions that often feel isolating. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space to process loss, identity, and life transitions. Using CBT, DBT, and an eclectic approach, I help clients develop practical coping tools while exploring deeper emotional experiences. I believe healing happens through connection.
