Fertility Counselling
- Over 3.5 Million people (1 in 6 couples) in the UK go through some kind of fertility challenge (Fertility Network UK).
- Research shows that 90% of people experiencing Infertility experience feelings of distress (42% suicidal thoughts).
Infertility is a medical condition, and experiencing it can be an overwhelming, lonely and all-consuming process.
People experience a whole range of emotions including sadness, grief, anger, depression and anxiety, at the same time as trying to manage getting on with day to day life, in terms of work, relationships and friendships.
My Experience
- I have personal experience of what some call the journey of Infertility, and gone through various fertility treatments. Since then I have felt drawn to support others experiencing distress.
- I have volunteered with Fertility Network UK, as a Support Group Leader, setting up the first Sussex Fertility Network UK Support Group, offering a safe and supportive space for Individuals and couples to talk about their experience of Infertility and Treatment with others.
- I am an affiliated Counsellor of the Agora Clinic in Brighton, providing both Support and Donor Implications Counselling to Clients. I counsel clients on the implications of creating their family using donor material, and for donors.
- I am a member of BICA (British Infertility Counselling Association), having undergone training with them. I offer a compassionate and understanding Counselling approach to both individuals and couples.
- I am inclusive to a wide range of family types, understanding specific areas that affect same-sex couples, Trans considerations, and solo parenthood. I am LGBTQ+ Affirmative in my approach.
I can support you with
- Coming to terms with a diagnosis of Infertility/ secondary Infertility
- Coping Strategies of managing Fertility Treatment
- Processing miscarriage Loss / failed IVF cycle.
- Coming to terms with not having children.
- Managing Friendships and family relationships, working life.
- Considering the implications of having donor egg/sperm/embryos.
- Considering the Implications of becoming a Sperm/egg/embryo donor.
I charge the same for a 50 minute Session, for Individuals or Couples at £60 a session, and £75 a session specifically for Implications Counselling. Sessions are flexible and upon meeting for the first time, we can discuss together the best schedule to support you.
