How we help

Fertility-informed therapy

Infertility is physically exhausting, emotionally draining, and full of grief that most therapists have never been trained to understand.

No matter where you are in your journey, our therapists get it and help you build resilience so you can continue to move forward.

Screening and assessments

Our goal is simple: reduce harm, and protect everyone in this journey, including the babies at the centre of it. That's why screening matters to us, a lot. We provide thorough, thoughtful psychosocial assessments and implications counselling for surrogates, donors and Intended Parents, and follow follow practice guidelines set by CFAS and ASRM.

Caseload support

We partner with fertility clinics, agencies, and healthcare providers to help your clients move forward, both practically and emotionally. Your team can stay focussed on clinical care, while we' handle your psychosocial assessments for surrogate and donor screening, implications counselling, and ongoing counselling support for your patients.

Surrogacy education for Intended Parents

In Canada, independent surrogacy is a viable option. It’s 100% legal, safe, and straightforward, you just have to know what you’re doing. We educate Intended Parents on how to safely complete their journey.
