Infertility Counseling in Denver
Struggling to Cope with Infertility?
Trying to conceive is such a vulnerable time. You may be feeling worry, heartache, longing, and grief. Wanting a baby is part of who you are at your core - it’s something you value.
When you’re struggling with your fertility, you can end up grieving what you thought would be.
How you thought building your family would go.
You may feel like your body is betraying you.
On top of that, you may be undergoing fertility treatments, some of which can make your emotions feel bigger and harder to manage.
All of this is happening while you may be trying to navigate complex medical systems, which often adds to the stress you’re already going through.
When to seek infertility counseling
Navigating fertility challenges can feel overwhelming, and you don't have to go through it alone. Infertility counseling offers a safe space for support and understanding throughout whatever path lies ahead for you.
Many people find therapy especially helpful when they're experiencing feelings that are confusing or hard to cope with. These may be things like feeling anxious about the future, finding yourself more easily frustrated or on edge than usual, or having persistent worries about your fertility that feel like they are always running in the background of your mind. You might also notice yourself feeling sad or down more often, losing interest in things that typically bring you happiness, or feeling like pulling away from friends and family.
Our approach to infertility counseling
Infertility counseling can help provide support and can help with processing your grief. It can be a space to discuss the medical decisions you’re facing. Counseling may also include developing coping skills to manage the array of emotions, the ups and downs, and the strain that fertility struggles can put on your relationships. We may work on strategies to help you get more distance from your thoughts, and to help you be more present-focused, which can help you to engage in things that are important to you.
Infertility counseling can help you…
Feel more supported in your relationships
Keep anxiety, depression, and trauma symptoms from going haywire and taking over
Learn how to let go of and get distance from bothersome thoughts
Better communicate with others including your partner, and people within the medical system
Continue building a life that feels meaningful
