Infographic on how to support someone you love through infertility by reframing the solution. Instead of "It'll happen," we can say, "I'm sorry that this journey is so difficult for you. How are you feeling about the process right now?" Instead of saying, "My friend went through IVF and she has twins now!" we can say "I haven't gone through IVF myself, but I know some people who have. Do you want to tell me more about what it's been like for you?" Instead of, "Just relax and don't get stressed out," we can ask, "Have you found anything that makes you feel good lately?" Instead of saying, "Get your mind off of it and maybe it'll happen on its own," we can say, "Would it be helpful to have some distractions? I'm free for a day/night out or in, whatever if best for you!" Providing therapy services to individuals and couples in Scotch Plains, NJ, Branchburg, NJ, and surrounding areas.
