If getting pregnant has been a challenge for you and your partner, you're not alone! Many couples struggle with trying to conceive. Coping with fertility issues can be tough and the emotional burden may be considerable. In addition to addressing the physical root causes of infertility with a trained medical professional, working with a mental health therapist who specializes in fertility issues can be helpful in processing the emotional pain and grief you may be feeling.

Infertility and pregnancy loss are just two of many reproductive experiences that don’t follow the socially supported narrative. For folks not represented in that narrative the pain is isolating and demoralizing. The het/cis-normative imperative that says our bodies don’t matter unless we reproduce, in biologically prescribed gender-role-confirming ways, reduces our value to lines on a pregnancy test. I work to provide the help I needed and couldn't find when I was going through it myself.

I know firsthand that issues surrounding fertility are emotionally, physically and financially grueling, and at times devastating. Without support, the experience of infertility can take a toll on your self-esteem, quality of life, work, and relationships. I provide an environment where you can experience the highs and lows, losses and celebrations and figure out how to cope.

Experiencing fertility challenges can be an incredibly painful and isolating experience. Working with a therapist that "gets it" can help you feel supported through medical appointments, painful conversations with family and friends, and all the ups and downs on your journey to parenthood. I completed training through the American Society for Reproductive Medicine and am a Certified Sex Therapist. I provide kind, supportive care for those struggling with fertility challenges.

For many years I have been working with clients who are experiencing the trials, fears, and potential grief and loss due to infertility and/or miscarriage. This can be a difficult, very isolating experience(s). It can help to have someone safe to talk to and gain support from.

A club where no one wants to be a member. Infertility is fraught with layers of self-identity, grief and loss, and challenges to communication and self-care. I have had extended training in this topic, as well as personal experience.

The experience of infertility may be the hardest thing an individual or couple has ever faced. I have a deep understanding of the toll it can take on a person's energy, mood, relationships, sense of worth, finances, and more.

I have had personal experience with infertility and pregnancy loss that informs my work. There are unique struggles around infertility and pregnancy loss, and it's often difficult to feel understood by someone who hasn't been through it.
