“All people have strengths and wisdom to draw on during challenging times but sometimes need a gentle reminder of these. The creation or expansion of a family is one of the most significant life events. Supporting people during this time and providing tools and strategies, or a listening ear, to help people to navigate the ups and downs of fertility treatment is both beautiful and rewarding work”.
