Fertility Challenges
Infertility can be an emotionally demanding journey, often filled with uncertainty, grief, and difficult decisions. Therapy offers a grounded, compassionate space to feel supported and understood during a time that can feel isolating and overwhelming.
You may benefit from therapy if you’re experiencing ongoing sadness, anxiety, emotional numbness, strain in your relationship, changes in sleep or appetite, or a sense of pulling away from others. These reactions are common — and you don’t have to manage them alone.
Working with a therapist can help you process complex emotions, develop coping strategies, strengthen communication, and feel more supported as you navigate treatment decisions, explore family-building options, or consider third-party support.
Third Party Reproduction- Intended Parent Consultations
The intended parent consultation is intended to help patients explore the psychological impact and emotional readiness of moving onto this family building option. During the session, we will explore the many educational, emotional, ethical and logistical considerations of third party parenting while addressing any areas of concern.
Egg Donor, Sperm Donor & Gestational Carrier Evaluations
Maternal & Paternal Mental Health
Pregnancy Loss & Birth Trauma
This psychological evaluation helps determine donor/ gestational carrier readiness and will address any concerns they may have. This is often a requirement of agencies or when using a "known" donor/carrier.
The transition into parenthood can bring joy, but it can also come with emotional challenges that many new parents don’t expect. Postpartum mood and anxiety disorders are common, affecting about 1 in 8 new mothers, yet they often go unrecognized and unspoken — even in routine medical care or conversations with other parents.
While certain factors can increase the risk of experiencing perinatal mood or anxiety difficulties, there are also ways to build resilience and feel more supported during this vulnerable time. Working with a therapist who specializes in maternal & perinatal mental health can provide a safe, compassionate space to manage worries, strengthen the parent–baby bond, and improve communication as you adjust to new parenthood.
Pregnancy loss and birth trauma can leave a deep emotional impact that often goes unseen. Whether your experience involved miscarriage, stillbirth, medical complications, a frightening delivery, or feeling unheard or powerless during birth, the effects can linger long after others expect you to “move on.”
You may find yourself carrying grief, shock, anger, guilt, or anxiety, or noticing changes in sleep, mood, or your sense of safety in your body. Partners can also be deeply affected, sometimes in different ways, and may feel unsure how to support each other while processing their own experience.
Therapy offers a grounded, compassionate space to gently process what happened, make meaning of your experience, and begin to feel more connected to yourself and others again. Working with a therapist can help individuals and couples reduce trauma-related symptoms, navigate grief at their own pace, strengthen communication, and feel supported as they consider next steps — whether that involves healing, future family planning, or simply learning how to carry this experience with more care.
