Issues with infertility and adoption can bring serious emotional distress and impact individual’s self image and relationships in different ways. There are ethical and cultural components that also create additional stress and overall dissatisfaction with life. In the therapy we explore emotions, thoughts and believes and look for possible solutions. Working though underlying and sometimes unconscious dynamics and patterns improves resilience and strengthen relationships. In cases of adoption, we address issues, associated with bringing a new family member into an existing family unit. We learn how to make it smoothly and deal with inevitable difficulties and challenges.
