Fertility Therapy
bOOK A CONSULTATION
At Fertility Psychotherapy Group, we specialize in fertility therapy in Los Angeles — helping individuals and couples navigate the emotional, relational, and psychological challenges of infertility, fertility treatments, pregnancy loss, and complex family-building journeys.
Trying to conceive, undergoing IVF or IUI, facing recurrent pregnancy loss, or exploring alternative paths like donor conception or surrogacy can bring intense anxiety, grief, identity disruption, and emotional burnout. Fertility therapy provides specialized mental health support designed specifically for these experiences — led by clinicians with advanced training in reproductive trauma, infertility counseling, and trauma-informed care.
Fertility therapy is a form of supportive, trauma-informed psychotherapy focused on the emotional and relational impact of infertility and reproductive healthcare. At Fertility Psychotherapy Group, we help to address the unique stressors of fertility challenges, including:
- Emotional distress during fertility treatments (IVF, IUI, egg retrieval)
- Anxiety, depression, or trauma symptoms tied to medical procedures and waiting cycles
- Grief and loss related to pregnancy loss or failed cycles
- Relationship strain, decision conflicts, and communication barriers
- Challenges with donor conception, surrogacy, or secondary infertility
- Identity and self-worth questions connected to reproductive outcomes
What Is Fertility Therapy?
Not all therapy is the same. Fertility struggles come with distinct emotional patterns — cyclical hope and disappointment, ongoing medical interventions, and physical sensations tied to treatment. Our clinicians understand this landscape intimately and tailor therapy to:
- Build emotional resilience through uncertainty
- Process losses and unmet expectations
- Support couples and individuals in strengthening communication
- Integrate grief, identity shifts, and future planning
- Collaborate with medical care (without interfering with clinical decisions)
Why Specialized Support Matters
We work with people at every stage of their reproductive journey, including those:
- Beginning fertility treatments or in active cycles (IVF/IUI)
- Coping with recurrent pregnancy loss
- Facing high-risk pregnancies or complicated diagnoses
- Considering or navigating donor conception and surrogacy
- Dealing with secondary infertility
- Managing relationship dynamics impacted by fertility stress
Fertility therapy begins with weekly sessions, especially during active treatment phases or times of acute emotional stress. Over time, frequency adjusts as your needs evolve. Therapy supports emotional regulation, grief processing, relational communication, and integration of your experience alongside medical care — without replacing clinical guidance.
Choosing fertility therapy is a step toward emotional grounding and clarity — even when the journey feels uncertain. Whether you’re just beginning fertility treatment or carrying years of unmet hope and loss, you deserve care that truly understands your experience.
