Fertility Support

Fertility Support is available at the London Women's Clinic London from fertility coach Anya Sizer with a programme of support designed to steer infertile couples through the stresses of infertility and its treatment. Some published research has shown that the outcome of treatment can be improved with a reduction in stress and that's a view that we accept here at the LWC.

Coaching is provided as individual sessions, support groups, or workshops, with an emphasis on monitoring and dealing with stress and the physical, psychological and practical ways to prepare for treatment.

Individual Coaching on Mondays and Wednesdays 10am-6pm
Individual sessions on supporting yourself through infertility

Support Group the last Monday of every month
To provide peer support and encouragement

Next Support Groups: Monday 26th March 6pm & Monday 30th April 7pm

Monthly Workshops held every six weeks
Workshops will be held on issues such as stress management, diet and exercise

Stress Management Workshops
These sessions aim is to reassure you that you are not alone and provide you with specific and personal tips that you can use during your treatment to help you deal with stress.

Points covered during the session are:

The inevitability of stress during infertility
