You’re Not Alone!
​
Fertility challenges can feel isolating, but you don’t have to face them alone. As someone who has walked this unexpected path and ultimately built a fulfilling life without children, I understand the complex emotions and decisions involved. Therapy sessions will help you process emotions and move forward feeling empowered.
Let’s navigate this journey together with compassion and clarity.
Finding new meaning & perspective
Infertility and barriers related to starting a family impact people from all social and cultural intersections of race, religion, gender, and sexuality. I provide services to help individuals and couples struggling with infertility, third-party reproduction, adoption, and coming to terms with not having children.
​
I am uniquely equipped to help clients walk through the journey of infertility since my personal story includes experience with infertility. I understand the emotional turmoil and stress on the body that infertility causes individually, as well as the life-changing impact it has on couples. ​
​
I understand while some may be working towards the goal of conceiving or starting a family, others may be seeking assistance to process losses related to infertility, are fertility journey ending or childlessness due to any circumstances. ​Child-free individuals and couples may be seeking additional resources and support related to a child-free choice & lifestyle.
