EMPOWERING YOU ON YOUR JOURNEY TO PARENTHOOD

Compassionate, collaborative support as you navigate the emotional rollercoaster of infertility.

Infertility describes anyone who needs medical help to build a family, regardless of relationship status, gender identity or sexual orientation. Reasons for seeking infertility treatment may include difficult or unexpected diagnoses, age related concerns, being single or partnered to someone of the same sex, or difficulty conceiving after certain amount of time. Those experiencing infertility are faced with complex, often difficult decisions related to if, when, and how they are going to build their families. They may consider options including fertility treatments, egg or sperm donation, surrogacy, or adoption. 

At Embodied Empowerment, we come into this work with an understanding that your dreams of becoming a parent impact everything about how you see yourself and imagine your future. We will hold space for you to process the emotions that have been a part of your reproductive journey and build clarity about what it looks like for you to move forward in a way that is authentic to you. 

How Infertility Impacts Your Mental Health

The emotional and physical toll of infertility can impact all areas of your life… from your relationships, your finances, your career, to the hopes and dreams you had for your future. It can be incredibly overwhelming to process all of the information you’re provided with, advocate for yourself within the systems you interact with, and make informed decisions about how you want to move forward.

Those who are navigating infertility related concerns often feel unheard, unsupported, and unacknowledged. They face incredibly difficult decisions in combination with complex, often overwhelming, emotions that make it difficult to fully process the experiences they have gone through. Oftentimes this results in longer term experiences with anxiety, indecision, grief, anger, and self-blame.
