Infertility is not just a medical experience — it is an emotional one. If you are navigating IVF, IUI, pregnancy loss, delayed motherhood, or difficult family-building decisions, you may be carrying grief that feels invisible to others. The uncertainty, repeated hope and disappointment, financial stress, relationship strain, and identity shifts can feel overwhelming — especially while managing work and daily responsibilities. You do not have to hold this alone. I specialize in supporting women and couples navigating: • IVF and IUI treatment stress • Infertility-related anxiety and depression • Recurrent pregnancy loss • Reproductive trauma • Decision fatigue around continuing or stopping treatment • Third-party reproduction (egg donation, surrogacy) • Oncology-related fertility loss • Grief related to the family you imagined With over 20 years of clinical experience, including oncology social work, I bring a trauma-informed and grief-informed lens to fertility work. I understand how medical systems, bodily autonomy, and uncertainty intersect in deeply personal ways. In Our Work Together You Can Expect: • A space where your grief is acknowledged and validated • Support managing treatment-related anxiety and emotional swings • Tools to regulate your nervous system during high-stress cycles • Help strengthening communication with your partner • Clarity around values-based decision making • Support rebuilding identity beyond fertility struggles Infertility can shake your sense of control, your confidence in your body, and your vision for the future. Therapy offers space to process what has happened, tolerate uncertainty, and move forward with steadiness — whether that means continuing treatment, exploring other paths, or grieving what is ending. I provide telehealth therapy throughout California and offer a collaborative, grounded, and emotionally attuned approach. If you’re ready for support that understands both the psychological and medical complexity of infertility, I welcome you to reach out and connect with me.
