Third-Party Donor & Surrogacy Evaluations
For donors, gestational carriers, and intended parents navigating assisted reproduction
A safe, supportive place to explore the emotional side of your decision
Choosing to donate eggs or sperm, become a gestational carrier, or build your family through a donor or surrogate is a huge, generous decision. And even when it feels exciting, it can come with questions, hopes, and a mix of emotions that deserve real space and care.
My role is to walk with you through those emotional and psychological pieces—gently, respectfully, and without judgment—to help make sure you feel grounded and informed every step of the way.
What These Evaluations Are
A third-party reproductive evaluation is a required mental health assessment for those participating in donor or surrogacy processes. But here, it’s more than a checklist. It’s a meaningful conversation about:
Your motivations and expectations
Your support system
How you cope with stress
Your understanding of the medical, emotional, and legal process
Any concerns or questions you’re carrying
The future implications that often don’t get talked about enough
(Yes, we cover the required psychological components—but in a way that feels human and not clinical-robot vibes.)

What to Expect
Think of our time together as a guided conversation—not an interrogation.
You can expect:
A warm, supportive session (typically 90 minutes)
Space to talk openly about your questions and concerns
A culturally sensitive approach that honors your background and identity
Discussion about risks, expectations, boundaries, and emotional needs
Time to explore how this decision might impact you now and later
Plenty of clarity on what clinics, agencies, or attorneys typically need
After the session, I provide the required written report for your clinic or agency.
