Infertility 

Does it feel like everyone around you has made pregnancy announcements or have multiple children? Dealing with the emotional struggles of infertility, secondary infertility often results in anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and deep grief. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers vital support, enabling individuals and couples to confront these emotions, enhance communication and create coping strategies that can strengthen their relationships and instill a renewed sense of hope for what lies ahead. I am here to listen with compassion and provide a safe space to process the complicated emotions.
