Infertility Therapists in Vancouver, BC
Several times in life we are all hit with something that’s really tough. We feel terrible. We don’t like it. We want it to go away. We do a variety of things in an effort to feel better. Some of us withdraw, hide, or do other things that allow us to avoid the problem. Others speak up, attack, or try to control the situation. These things may help in the short term however, they can also create additional problems and then we find ourselves back where we began, often worse off.

This means I work a lot with clients who are struggling to create their family ( infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss) or are struggling with mental health issues during and/or after pregnancy (depression and anxiety).
I am passionate about my work, and have dedicated the last 15 years of my life to helping people create change. My clients are dealing with real life issues - relationships, fertility struggles, adjustment to parenthood, family of origin dynamics, and major life transitions. I aim to create a space where clients are free to explore their fears, doubts, strengths, and needs. Some clients require a faster, more solution-focused therapy process, while others want to meet regularly and have that person to continually connect with and receive support from. I am open to both and see it as a privilege to be invited into people’s lives.

You may feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, and uncertain, and are spending lots of time thinking, second guessing yourself, and searching for meaning. Perhaps you feel like you can't think anymore; that you are too depleted to go beyond your essential day-to-day tasks. You might be struggling to conceive and experiencing self-doubt, jealousy, and a lack of control. Or, perhaps you are pregnant or already a parent, and are feeling pulled along an emotional roller coaster where you're not in the driver's seat. You might remember a time when you felt more confident, clear, and connected, and are wondering how to get back there.

And there are wounds that cut across culture entirely — infertility, pregnancy loss, miscarriage — where the pain is compounded by the weight of of expectations.
Have you ever wondered why, despite all your efforts, certain emotional struggles just won't heal? Nervous system dysregulation is often at the heart of the problem. The body carries not just personal history, but cultural history too. Racing thoughts, zoning out, crying uncontrollably, shutting down — these are all signs of a nervous system stuck in survival. But the shape that survival takes is never generic. It's shaped by where you come from, what your family was allowed to feel, and what the world around you has expected of you. And that can feel like a heavy burden to bear.

Whether you’re untangling the past or searching for more alignment in your present life, healing can feel like stepping into the unknown. Like most, this can cause us to avoid the process altogether. The more we avoid, the more misaligned we start to feel in ourselves.
I believe healing isn’t meant to be a solo process. I offer a grounded & open-minded space where you have permission for this process to be messy + disorganized. You don’t need to arrive with answers; we’ll slow things down & get there together. My hope for you is to come back to yourself in a way that honours all of you; even the parts that may not make sense yet.

Infertility Counsellors
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.
