Therapy for Infertility & Loss
Perinatal loss and fertility counseling in Pasadena and throughout California
Individual Infertility Support
Trying to grow your family and facing one setback after another can feel heartbreaking, exhausting, and deeply isolating. Many people experiencing infertility struggle with anxiety, grief, anger, resentment, shame, and uncertainty — all of which are valid responses to an incredibly painful experience. The emotional toll of fertility challenges can affect every part of your life, placing strain on relationships, impacting self-esteem, and changing the way you feel about your body and yourself. You do not have to carry that pain alone.
Therapy for Pregnancy and Child Loss
Experiencing pregnancy or child loss can be profoundly heartbreaking and life-altering. Grief after loss is deeply personal and may include feelings of sadness, anger, guilt, numbness, confusion, or loneliness. Whether your loss was recent or many years ago, the pain can affect your relationships, your sense of self, and the way you move through everyday life. In therapy, you will have a compassionate space to process your grief, honor your experience, and navigate the complex emotions that can come with loss at your own pace.
You are not alone and you deserve support.
At Her Space Therapy, we provide a compassionate space for you to share your story and feel supported through the challenges of infertility, pregnancy loss, or child loss. Therapy can help you process grief, navigate overwhelming emotions, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with yourself and your relationships as you move forward with greater hope, understanding, and self-compassion.

Let’s reconnect with the strength and resilience within you
Infertility, pregnancy loss, and child loss can leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, and uncertain about the future. During times of deep grief and stress, it can be difficult to trust your instincts, care for yourself, or imagine a path forward. Therapy offers a space to slow down, process your experience, and reconnect with your needs, values, and inner strength. Together, we can help you build resilience, deepen self-understanding and self-compassion, and find ways to move forward with greater support and hope — even when the path ahead feels unexpected or uncertain.
