Choosing a path to parenthood that involves donor conception, surrogacy, or embryo donation doesn't come easy. And it often comes with a complicated mix of emotions that nobody around you quite has language for.

​

There is the grief of the path you thought you'd take. The questions about identity, genetics, and what family means. The uncertainty of how to talk about it, who to tell, and what to say. The complicated feelings that can sit right alongside the hope and the love, and that don't make you a bad person for having them.

​

This is one of the most nuanced areas of reproductive mental health, and it is one I know well.

​

I work with individuals and couples navigating every aspect of third party reproduction, from the early decision-making process through the emotional layers that emerge along the way. Whether you are just beginning to explore these options, deep in the process, or trying to make sense of how you feel about the family you are building, this is a space where all of it is welcome.

​

There is no right way to feel about this journey. But you don't have to sort through it alone.
