Jeanette Abney
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, SAP
Infertility and adoption issues can be a personal matter. I have many years of experience as I worked within the court system regarding adoptions. I also have many years of experience with working with both males and females as it relates to fertility issues.

Barry Lipscomb
Hypnotherapist, CHT
Fertility journeys can be quite frustrating, especially as it gets extended and you are not finding success regardless of the path you take. There can be feelings of inadequacy and disappointment that your body is not responding as you would like. After failed attempts at IVF you might find yourself experiencing loss and grieving for the pregnancy that isn't happening. Women and couples often keep their experience to themselves putting on a brave face each day as their journey lingers on. I have worked with women using hypnotherapy to work through this grief and loss, and explore if past trauma or limiting beliefs in their subconscious is affecting their ability to conceive.

Some of the most joyous moments in life also have the potential to be the most painful. The world doesn’t seem fair when some women get pregnant just by looking at their partners, or so it would seem, while others try for months, and then begin to time their cycles, and finally start exploring other options. The infertility journey is long and confusing—full of needle pricks, doctor’s appointments and strange or inappropriate questions from friends and loved ones. And if you’re part of a queer couple, you can multiply those strange and inappropriate questions by a factor of two, or maybe three. But then it happens, you get the news: X number of healthy embryos. Yay! Except they are all boys, you really wanted a girl, but that’s okay, you just want a healthy baby. But then, your first implantation doesn’t take. So you have to try again. Success! At least at first. Miscarriages are also an all too common, intensely painful part of this process. It starts to feel like your body is betraying you. Or what if you don’t have all of the necessary parts to carry the child and you need to use a surrogate? The first one doesn’t work out, and the second one doesn’t pass psychological testing and number three, well, unfortunately after three unsuccessful tries, it’s time to look for number four. When will it end? And when will it be your turn for a healthy baby? Therapeutic support from someone who understands the process can help you feel less alone as you navigate the decisions, the ups and downs, and the journey to becoming your own self-educated endocrinologist (kidding, sort of…).
