About Therapy For Women Living Childfree
Therapy for women living childfree provides women who have chosen not to become mothers a space where their experiences are considered and valued as they prioritize their mental health. Women who are living childfree often feel overlooked, uncertain, or pressured as they make choices that may not align with what society expects from them. As we work together in therapy we will explore feelings of anxiety, shame, and indecision that may accompany your decision to live childfree. We’ll explore your personal goals and values so that you can feel more confident making choices that support your vision for your future.
Living childfree can bring unwanted feedback and scrutiny that undermine the choices you’ve made for your future. You deserve to feel comfortable and confident in the life you’ve built for yourself.
