Description

Infertility isn't just a medical issue—it's a full-body, full-life experience that can rattle a client's sense of identity, relationships, and hope. In this episode, Allison Ramsey, LCMHC, joins us for a refreshingly real conversation about what therapists need to know when working with clients navigating infertility, pregnancy loss, and complex reproductive journeys. We talk about the emotional landmines (hi, baby showers), the existential spiral of "what if I never become a parent?", and how well-meaning therapists can accidentally miss the mark. Whether you've supported clients through IVF, miscarriages, or just aren't sure what to say when someone mentions egg retrieval, this episode will expand your empathy, insight, and therapeutic toolkit—without sugarcoating the hard stuff.
