Couples

Individuals going through fertility treatment or learning how to cope with early parenthood are most often one half of a partnership.  Holding space for couples to experience their journeys together is an important part of my practice. Aside from individual sessions, I offer space for couples to see me together and often encourage this. It can be tremendously helpful to hear one another’s experience in the quiet space created by the sessions.

Couples counselling sessions can offer support with:

• Building stronger communication skills

• Talking through medical decisions and timelines related to the fertility journey

• Understanding each other’s limits and personal boundaries

• Creating a clear understanding of shared timelines

• Reassessing what the future looks like when things haven’t gone according to plan

I am experienced working with couples undergoing fertility treatment, as well as couples who have chosen to go down the adoption route. I hold specialist training in working with couples undergoing IVF treatment and continue to engage with couples counselling training regularly.
