You're a woman who wants to understand herself better: how you're showing up in relationships, who "you" are outside of your responsibilities, and what gets in the way of feeling more connected within yourself and with others. Maybe you’ve experienced a loss or significant transition in life, or maybe negative self-talk or relationship struggles are wearing you down. You know life doesn’t have to feel like this, but there is so much on your shoulders these days—it hasn't felt possible to find the time, space, and skills you need to create change. But now you’re ready to lean in, with curiosity and courage, to what has held you back.

We specialize in Marriage and Family Therapy and treat couples and individuals. Marriage therapy focuses on the conflicts and disagreements between two people.

Family therapy may be the only setting where you will have the opportunity to hear how other family members are feeling.

Hasn't anxiety cost you enough already? Maybe it's one small decision keeping you stuck on the hamster wheel in your brain for days, thinking and re-thinking your options. Doubting yourself over and over. If you could just stop, you absolutely would. Your anxiety always seems to get the best of you. You wonder, why can’t you be like everyone else and just let things go? Easier said than done. No one else seems as tangled in their thoughts as you feel like you are. You know this isn’t your best life, but it's all that you know. You're stuck. You know there has to be a better way, but it eludes you.

Infertility Therapists

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 behavioral 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.
