I am a therapist, wife and mother with personal and professional experience in the areas of fertility treatment, adoption, miscarriage and early loss, surrogacy and challenging pregnancy.
My own journey has helped to shape a practice that focuses on growing and nurturing families. During the last 21 years, it has been my privilege to work with individuals, couples, adolescents and families, in both school and private practice settings. This includes working with individuals to create a healthier life, with couples to develop more fulfilling relationships, and people working toward growing their family through adoption, fertility treatment or surrogacy. Trying to have a family while also functioning in your day-to-day life can be tremendously stressful.
I am dedicated to helping you navigate challenging roads and recognize achievements along the way.
For millions of women, the path to creating a healthy baby comes with a choice they never imagined: accepting the end of their own genetic lineage and relying on another woman's donated egg.
"Egg Factor" is a groundbreaking and gripping new series that follows the fascinating lives of people involved in creating families with donated eggs. It is a timely topic and it is controversial. The decisions areound it are delicate and difficult, yet it is redefining what it means to be a modern family.
This book was written to help children of surrogates understand the process of the surrogacy journey. It provides the reader with a guide to discuss the proper language, through a sweet story and attractive images of the surrogacy experience. This story follows a brother and sister as they watch their mother become a surrogate. The siblings invite the reader to explore their own personal experiences as well.
