Infertility is the inability to have a child. If partners have tried to become pregnant without success, they may reach out to fertility specialists to determine why or go through fertility treatment. It can be a difficult experience for people who want to become parents. Infertility may lead to other mental health concerns, such as depression or anxiety, and it may also lead to relationship issues.
Available Treatment Options
Counseling interventions for infertility include couples and individual counseling. Sessions focus on relationship dynamics or personal distress as a result of infertility. Therapists make a safe space for people to share their fears about infertility and help them process anger, guilt, or sadness. Counselors can also help couples and individuals develop positive coping skills that allow them to deal, in healthy ways, with their stress and emotions.
