Parenthood Indecision Therapy provides support to women who are making decisions about how, when, and if they want to become parents. Oftentimes those who experience parenthood indecision have attempted to find clarity but continue to feel ambivalent, confused, anxious, or overwhelmed at the idea of having to make a choice about becoming a parent or raising children. Parenthood Indecision Therapy can be helpful for those who have experienced a consistent lack of clarity about whether or not they want to have children or for those who notice that this decision is accompanied by a high level of emotional distress.
Many of my clients find that decisions about parenthood are creating continued feelings of ambivalence, anxiety, guilt, and self-doubt that make it difficult for them to understand how they want to move forward.
