Individual Therapy

Nobody truly understands.

You’ve been trying so hard to keep it all together.

Very few people know what’s really going on.

You’ve worked hard your whole life. Whenever you had a problem, you dug in your heels and worked harder – until you found a way to solve it.

But that’s just not how it works with infertility.

Because infertility isn’t fair.

You’ve changed your diet (ye-bye gluten and alcohol).

You’ve consulted with the best doctors you can afford. You go to acupuncture.

You’ve done everything they’ve told you to do.

Managing your fertility is like a full-time job.

Why isn’t it working?

It’s absolutely soul-crushing – spinning your wheels like this – month after month.

The diagnostic tests can be painful.

And medications come with side effects. (All I’ll say is, “Thank goodness for stretchy pants!”)

Each treatment cycle brings a wave of new issues.

Constantly arguing with insurance takes hours.

And it’s slowly devastating to lose hope after so many failed cycles.

Oh, and have I mentioned the mood swings?

And all of it could – would – be ok, if…

If you knew it would work –

If you knew you’d get the family you want at the end of all this – you’d endure it all happily.

But you’re doing all this for a CHANCE at a baby. Just for a maybe.

The worst part, though, is the loneliness.

Everyone else seems to get pregnant so easily.

Invitations, showers, announcements, christenings – constant reminders of what you don’t have.

It’s embarrassing to be the only one who can’t seem to do the most natural thing in the world.

But you won’t be lonely in your sessions with me.

I’ll understand – because I’ve been there.

Compared to other therapists, I bring a unique perspective to therapy. I’ve been through multiple rounds of infertility treatment.

I know the lingo. I know that sinking feeling in your stomach when you stare at the two giant bags full of meds for your first IVF cycle.

I’ve had a good fertility nurse and a bad one, and I know how that impacts your overall experience.

I just get it. We can skip the explanations and dive right in.

Here’s why that matters.

I’ll provide the space you need to get it all out – without judgment.

I’ll help you identify all the deeply rooted beliefs you’re holding about what it means to have trouble conceiving.

Together, we’ll work through the guilt and shame.

We’ll talk about what genuinely matters to you, what you value in life – and get you doing those things again. We’ll rediscover your identity before infertility – and integrate it into who you are now.

I’ll give you the tools you need to manage the stress you’re under.

We’ll practice how you’ll answer intrusive questions.

We’ll check in on your relationship and get you spending fun time with your partner again.

We’ll make it so that infertility stops taking over your life.

Rediscover what it really means to live.

No matter where the future takes you, you can reclaim your sense of passion, joy, and self-acceptance.

Reach out today at (267) 766-0977 to connect with someone who’s been where you are, who will take the next steps with you, and who can work with you even after your journey ends.

Let me help you develop the strength and resilience you need to love your life again.
