Miscarriage

Although they say 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage– you wouldn’t know it from how much (actually, how little) miscarriage is discussed.

Many women grieve in silence, alone or with their partner and/or a few close loved ones. When a baby is born, everyone talks about it– baby photos flood social media news feeds, we throw parties, new parents shout their love from the rooftops! But when a baby dies… silence. It’s often difficult for loved ones to know how to support parents going through such a loss, which unfortunately leads to more isolation.

Losing a pregnancy leaves a void in your family– and no matter how early or late you lost your little one, this is a significant loss that matters.

Counseling can be  greatly helpful in the healing process following pregnancy loss. You don’t have to go through it alone.

Infertility

Another month, another negative, another disappointment, another failed cycle.

Infertility is a uniquely painful grief that affects 1 in 8 couples trying to conceive and grow their family. And, unfortunately it is often a silent struggle, due to stigma and shame.

Infertility turns your perception of control upside down, and for many people it is the first time in their lives that they are faced with a challenge that they can’t fix by doing more, working diligently, and trying harder.

Infertility plunges you through the stages of grief every single month– as you deny, bargain, get angry, cry, and accept. Just in time to do it all over again, with a sliver of hope in your tired heart.

Counseling with an experienced therapist can give you the support, space, and insight you need to strengthen yourself through this journey— without losing your mind or your partner!
