You’re exhausted with all that life has thrown at you. The strategies you’ve used before no longer work or have somehow made things worse. You need support and a new perspective.

You really need a therapist who won't just throw solutions at you but will help you truly get the heart of your struggles. You’ve come to the right place. You can find the support you need here – for yourself, for you and your partner, or even for your child.

Some of my areas of expertise include re-interpreting introversion, addressing social anxiety, generalized anxiety, challenges related to infertility, grief, and parenting challenges.
I believe that everyone deserves to invest in their well being and personal growth. We are all impacted by our past, our current environment and our relationships with others. With an investment in yourself, you can move toward positive outcomes that reflect personal goals and values. Counselling is an investment in every part of your life: as a partner, parent, friend, or professional. I believe in stepping into a place of agency in terms of creating the life you want and deserve to be living. I have helped many do just that and am grateful for the benefits we all receive when healing and joy ripple out into the world.

How can infertility affect couples and their relationship?

Clients who are dealing with infertility may experience conflict and communication problems. It’s not unusual for shame, blame, and guilt to arise in cases of infertility, whether the source of the problem is one partner or both. This means that clients are upset and pulling away from their partner just when they need them the most. Some clients may find it difficult to spend time around friends and family who are pregnant. Friends and family can also make hurtful comments that increase tension during this time.

How does therapy for infertility issues work?

The therapist will begin by gathering information about the client or couple and make a treatment plan for their specific concerns. In addition to addressing common mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma reactions or PTSD, therapists can help clients improve their decision-making and deal with stressors unique to infertility. Some examples include coping with the “two-week wait” before a pregnancy test, the distress associated with a failed attempt or miscarriage, and the shame and blame sometimes associated with reproductive concerns.

What type of therapy is best for infertility issues?

Many therapists offer psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are dealing with infertility issues. Some helpful therapeutic approaches include cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which can aid clients in reframing negative thoughts about their situation. Expressive writing and art therapy can help clients process difficult feelings. Clients might also benefit from group therapy to experience support from others who are dealing with the same problems.

How long does therapy for infertility issues take?

There is no set length for therapy that addresses infertility or reproductive concerns. Some clients might find it helpful to continue therapy during their pregnancy to have healthy ways to cope with any associated stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Some clients who decide not to pursue fertility treatments might benefit from the support of a therapist. The duration of therapy varies depending on the individual client’s specific needs and goals.
