Infertility Support

Infertility Therapy

For many couples, infertility is a significant challenge that can lead to various emotional, psychological, and relationship difficulties. At Behr Psychology, our qualified therapists and psychologists offer support to couples navigating infertility and IVF treatment, helping them address the underlying stressors and emotional toll infertility can impose.

Understanding the impact of infertility

The CDC data shows that approximately one in eight couples in the United States experience infertility. Infertility counseling is crucial for those struggling with the difficulty of conceiving, as it can offer helpful solutions to reduce stress, improve coping strategies, and enhance the couple’s relationship and overall well-being.

We understand that stigma and misconceptions can prevent couples from seeking help. Behr Psychology provides a safe and supportive environment where couples can explore feelings and develop coping strategies. Our counseling for infertility helps couples manage emotional distress, anxiety, and relationship tensions often exacerbated by infertility.

Myths About Infertility and Infertility Counseling:

Myth: If you just relax, you'll get pregnant sooner or later.

Fact: Relaxation alone is not a cure for infertility. While stress can impact fertility and a woman's ability to conceive, it is not the only cause of infertility. Various medical factors usually play a significant role.

Myth: Infertility counseling is only for women because infertility is always a woman's problem.

Fact: Infertility affects both women and men. About one-third of infertility cases are caused by male factors. Therefore, infertility counseling benefits both men and women, helping partners support each other through these challenges.

Myth: Infertility counseling is not effective and too expensive.

Fact: Counseling for infertility can help people and couples deal with emotional and relational issues, leading to improved mental health and relationship satisfaction. Infertility counseling is very costly and not worthwhile. Many couples consider infertility therapy a significant investment in their mental health and relationship well-being. In addition, there is a sliding scale payment option, making it more accessible.

Myth: We don't need counseling for infertility. Infertility only causes physical issues anyway.

Fact: Infertility and going through IFS therapy often lead to significant emotional distress, including anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. Infertility therapy helps address these issues.
