We are aware that up to one in six couples have difficulty in conceiving and the state of impaired fertility itself together with the accompanying investigations and treatment, challenges emotional equilibrium, frequently evoking anxiety, stress and depression. Counselling is a process through which individuals and couples are given the opportunity to explore themselves, their thoughts, feelings and beliefs in order to come to a greater understanding of their present situation.
You can find a list of infertility counsellors who accept BICA referrals by clicking on your local area on our counselling requests list. Details of most of the counsellors who accept referrals are listed, but not all of them. There are more counsellors available in some areas than others and for some areas none of our members have registered on the list. If there are no suitable counsellors available in your local area or if you prefer this approach, you can make a telephone counselling arrangement. read more »
