There are 3 areas that are impacted when experiencing fertility difficulties:
🌿Psychological/emotional
🌿Medical/physiological
🌿Couple/relational

We tend to focus solely on the medical/physical aspect… but the other two areas also need support during this time as they can often suffer.

The fertility journey should be an integrative approach; combining support for all three elements in order to encourage optimal physical and mental well-being.

Is there an area you feel needs more support?

Confidentiality is what underpins EVERYTHING we do as therapists. It encompasses everything from storing your notes safely & securely, to not discussing any identifiable information when engaging in mandated supervision.

As a client, you should be fully aware as to what the limits of confidentiality are when engaging in therapy; whether it be counselling or psychology sessions.

These limits are outlined in my counselling contract and I go through them with you to ensure you understand.

Limits can vary from country to country but generally, it centres around:
🌺intent to harm oneself or others
🌿knowledge of any continued harm
🌸requests by a court to provide your client notes

Discussing what your anticipated limits are ahead of beginning the journey is so important.

Many times, couples are often thrown into disarray during their fertility journey because they don’t see eye to eye on what the next steps should be, putting strain on not only their relationship but the whole fertility journey.

It can be difficult to discuss… but it’s a conversation that is so important.

BREATHING! 💁🏻‍♀️ Who knew it could be so helpful??!
But I’m all seriousness, our breath is one of the most powerful tools available to us. Harnessing the energy that is within our breath can be used to help alleviate anxiety and encourage a calmer, clearer state of mind.

⬆️ Here’s 3 powerful breathwork practices to get you started.

The Dual Process Model of Grief - what is it?
*TW - pregnancy loss

Unlike traditional linear models of grief that suggest we move through set stages, this model suggests we actually move back and forth continuously between being loss-oriented and restoration-oriented.

When we’re loss oriented, we’re focused on our grief. We sit in it. When we’re restoration oriented we move towards being in a state of action, action that will help bring us back into ‘normalcy’.

Moving in this way can offer create feelings of frustrations along the lines of “what’s wrong with me… I was fine yesterday, why am I like this today?”

There is nothing wrong with you. Your grief is your own and you will move through it in the way that is best for you❤️

The TWW😬 It can be such an anxiety inducing, overwhelming time for many women and couples…

How do you manage the TWW?

💫FREE Hypnotherapy Sessions!💫 I’m offering pro-bono fertility hypnotherapy sessions for the duration of November.

Hypnotherapy is such an effective tool to induce relaxation and guide your unconscious into a desired state. It has been supported to be effective to a statistically significant degree in numerous research.

I am SO excited to share this with you! If you have been wondering as to what hypnotherapy entails but been a little hesitant to book a session, this is your chance to explore it! I offer evening and weekend sessions to cater to overseas clients also (I’m unable to work with clients based in the US and Canada).

Sometimes we tend to dismiss our struggles, thinking “other people have it worse” or “I’ll be ok”.

If you find your day to day life is being negatively impacted, or it’s becoming harder to maintain your usual state of reference, it may be beneficial to seek out professional or social support.

You are worthy of support✨

*TW* Miscarriage.
Many of us often struggle knowing how best to support someone who has experienced loss, particularly pregnancy loss. We want to offer support and be there for them, but sometimes it can be difficult knowing how best to offer that support.

The majority of people tend to think that by not discussing or offering an opportunity to talk about the lost loved one, they’re sparing the grieving person from any more pain.

However grieving people often are so grateful and appreciative when someone offers to talk about their lost one, because it’s showing that they have not been forgotten and that their grief is valid.

I’m all about healthy goals… identifying a goal that is achievable and fully within our own control.

💪🏼Moving towards an optimal state of well-being is what we’re all trying to achieve. Every thing is on a spectrum. How can we move towards the ideal end of the spectrum; of emotional, physical and mental well-being?

What are your healthy goals?⬇️

04/11/2021

Setting healthy goals! 💁🏻‍♀️ I’m so so passionate about realising our true innate power and reclaiming power in way we have lost it.

Healthy goals are goals that are fully within our control, the success of them doesn’t depend on any external situation or person.

Is there a way we can set a healthy goal, a one fully within our control, that can help us move towards the top end of the spectrum of being in an optimal state of well-being to maximise chances of pregnancy.

I’m really keen to hear some of your healthy goals. Also… am I getting better at IG Lives? 💁🏻‍♀️

Email counselling 📧 This is a great option for those who perhaps struggle with verbalising their throughly and feelings in the moment, or worried that that may ‘freeze’ in a session. It’s also a great option for those who are uncomfortable either being face to face or online.

So how does it work?
So to start with, two times during the week are agreed upon by both client and counsellor. For example, let’s say Wednesday 4pm. That is when the counsellor can expect to receive your email. They will then reflect on what has been written and formulate a response which will be sent at the second agreed time.

✨If you would be interested in hearing more about email counselling or booking a session, email me at kate@koalakove.com.au ✨
