Support Through IVF and Fertility
IVF and Fertility Support, online with Avinii Taneja, Counselling Psychologist.
Yes, counselling can help during IVF and fertility treatment. It gives you a steady place for the hope, waiting, disappointment and pressure that treatment brings, alone or with your partner. Avinii has supported people through fertility care, including in her work with Nova IVF Fertility. Sessions are online and fit around appointments.
What It Can Feel Like
The Two-Week Wait
Days that feel endless, and every symptom examined.
Grief After a Cycle
A negative result or a loss that others may not see.
Strain Between Partners
Different ways of coping, and conversations that get harder.
Questions from Others
Family and friends asking "any good news?"
Feeling Out of Control
Schedules, injections and decisions that take over life.
Hard Choices
Donors, more cycles, or when to pause or stop.
What Sessions Focus On
All of the work is trauma-informed and paced by you. Sessions are a place for support and exploration, not promises or quick fixes.
Room for Every Feeling
Hope and fear can sit side by side. Sessions make room for both, without needing to stay positive.
Coping Through Treatment
Practical ways to get through the waiting, the appointments and the news, good or bad.
Together, or on Your Own
Support for one partner or both, including how to talk to each other and to family.
IVF and Fertility Support: Common Questions
Is there counselling for people going through IVF?+
Yes. Fertility counselling offers emotional support before, during and after treatment. It does not replace medical care, but it can make the journey feel less lonely.
When should I start?+
Any time: before your first cycle, during treatment, after a result, or when deciding what comes next.
Can my partner join?+
Yes. You can come on your own or together as a couple, depending on what you need.
Does therapy improve IVF success rates?+
Therapy cannot promise a medical outcome. Its aim is to support your wellbeing and your relationship through treatment.
Is it confidential?+
Yes. What you share stays between you and Avinii, within the usual limits of safety.
