“Do you have kids?”
This common intake question is intended to gather information, forge connection, and build context around your clients’ lives.
But for your clients experiencing infertility, it is a major trigger. And it activates the grief and isolation inherent in involuntary childlessness.
As more individuals start their families at older ages and the presence of reproductive challenges increases, trauma and grief related to infertility will show up in more therapy practices.
Don’t let therapy be a place where clients coping with current or previous infertility feel further stigmatized.
Watch Dr. Loree Johnson, LMFT, fertility counseling and reproductive trauma expert, for this dynamic one-day training that will give you the skills you need to help your clients process infertility grief and trauma and related inadequacy beliefs, negative self-worth, shame, worry, irritability, depression, body issues, and relationship conflict. Using the lens of cultural humility, you’ll learn strategies to:
• Ask the right questions to get to the heart of your clients’ infertility experience
• Intervene with individuals and couples using EMDR-based skills, somatic and emotion-focused techniques, and more
• Assess your clients’ intersectional identity to contextualize their reproductive story
• Utilize the dual process model to support grief at all life stages
Packed with case studies, exercises, and compelling self-reflections for the therapist, this training will give you skills to meet the growing need for support around infertility so you can help clients navigate the myriad of heartbreaks they face.
