The fertility journey, whether you are struggling with primary or secondary infertility, can be a time of immense strain, sadness and uncertainty. Women and their partners are faced with endless questions, decisions, and invasive procedures. Many feel like it's just not fair that having babies seems to come so easily to 'everyone else.'
I have experience working with individuals who have undergone fertility treatment: counselling can help reduce isolation and provide another level of support during this difficult time. It gives clients a space where they can give voice to those circling worries and the grief, sorrow, shame or anger they might be experiencing.
Counselling can also be especially helpful if these emotions are intruding into everyday life and becoming harder to manage. I have done additional training with the British Infertility Counselling Association
