Looking for Support?

How do I know if I need help?

If infertility is causing you feelings of deep sadness, anxiety, frustration, or isolation, or if it’s impacting your relationships and daily life, it might be time to seek support. Therapy can help you manage these emotions, cope with uncertainty, and find strength during this challenging journey.

1 in 6 people experience infertility and the emotional stress of infertility has been compared to that of having cancer.

What can I expect from therapy?

In therapy for infertility, you can expect a safe, compassionate space to explore your emotions, process grief and frustration as you consider and/or navigate assisted reproduction. You will work with your therapist to develop coping strategies and find joy. Your therapist will support you through the ups and downs of the journey, helping you build resilience and find hope.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my partner also needs therapy?

We know that families are complex and are here to support each person so that you can support each other.

How is “graduation” from group handled?

We will collaborate with you and the group as a whole to determine when graduation feels right. Usually this happens around the same time you “graduate” from your reproductive endocrinologist. Some members may remain longer Readiness often becomes clear when the support needs of someone who is newly pregnant naturally begin to differ from the ongoing needs of those still in active fertility treatment or early loss recovery.

Will we only talk about infertility?

Absolutely not! You are a whole person with an entire life outside of your infertility experience. Part of coping with the experience of infertility is enhancing the other parts of your life. Bring it all!

What if I or someone else in the group has a positive pregnancy test?

That’s one of the goals that you all are working towards. So we not only prepare for it, we expect it. It is normal to have mixed emotions about sharing or hearing news from others. Of course, we will handle these situations with thought and care. Pregnancy announcements are handled with care in this group.

How would group therapy be helpful?

Our therapist-led groups provide a safe, supportive space to process the emotional and relational impact of infertility, pregnancy loss, and reproductive trauma. Being in a group can help reduce isolation and shame, foster connection with others who truly get it, and help you regulate intense emotions while rebuilding trust in your body and a sense of control. Through psychoeducation, grounding techniques, and shared reflection, you will work toward healing, meaning-making, increasing resilience, and renewed hope. The group can support you in navigating complex experiences like relationship issues, treatment decisions, family building options, or pregnancy at a pace that feels good to you. We have short term groups which have a focus on learning skills to manage the stress, as well as an ongoing weekly group for finding calm, connection, and meaning through the uncertainty of infertility. A space where healing and possibility meet.

How do I schedule an appointment?

Scheduling an appointment is easy. You can schedule an introductory call at 516-442-1116. Let us know how we can help and we will call you as soon as possible- usually the same/next business day.

Do you accept insurance?

Yes, we do work with many insurance plans. Our intake coordinators will check your specific insurance plan and let you know how that would cover care at HHP. When using your insurance isn't an option, we are proud to offer a fee structure that aims to make care accessible, while still allowing us to provide high quality care. You can find more information on our Fees and Insurance page.
