Fertility Therapy in London | Support Through Trying to Conceive, IVF and Loss
Trying for a baby can take over your life in a way that is hard to explain to anyone who has not been through it. The two-week waits. The knock of another negative test. The appointments, the injections, the cost, the waiting. The way hope and grief can arrive in the same afternoon. It can be one of the loneliest things a person goes through, even when you are surrounded by people who love you.
If you are finding this harder than you expected, you are not being dramatic, and you do not have to carry it on your own.
What I can help with
I offer therapy for the emotional side of fertility. That includes the strain of trying to conceive, the particular stress of IVF and IUI cycles, the toll it can take on your sense of self and your relationship, and the impossible decisions that come with it: whether to keep going, when to pause, whether to explore donor conception or surrogacy, and how to hold on to yourself through all of it.
I also work with people navigating secondary infertility, unexplained infertility, and the quiet grief that can come with each cycle that does not work. If you are carrying a pregnancy loss alongside this, that has its own space here, and we can hold both.
Every path to parenthood
I work with people on all paths to parenthood, including LGBTQ+ people and couples, solo parents by choice, and those conceiving through donor conception or surrogacy. Wherever you are starting from, and whatever your route looks like, you are welcome here.
How I work
This is emotional support that sits alongside the medical care you may be having elsewhere, not a replacement for it. My approach is warm, integrative and led by you. Some sessions are about being heard and making sense of a process that can feel relentless. Others are about practical ways to steady yourself through it. We go at your pace.
Working together
Sessions are 50 minutes, in person in Notting Hill or online across the UK. If you would like to talk things through first, you are welcome to book a free 15-minute call at the link below.
Common questions
Can therapy help while I am going through IVF?
Yes. Many people find that a dedicated space alongside their treatment helps them cope with the stress, uncertainty and grief of IVF, and feel less alone in it. Therapy does not interfere with your medical care, it supports you through it.
Do I need to be having fertility treatment to come?
No. You are welcome whether you are just starting to try, in the middle of treatment, taking a break, or trying to decide what to do next.
Can we work together alongside my fertility clinic?
Yes. I offer emotional and psychological support that sits alongside the care you receive from your clinic or GP. Our work is a separate, confidential space that is just for you.
Do you support LGBTQ+ people and solo parents trying to conceive?
Yes, warmly. I work with people on every path to parenthood, including same-sex couples, solo parents by choice, and those using donor conception or surrogacy.
