She supports family building for couples, singles and members of the LGBTQ+ community.Her desire to help those who are struggling to build families comes from her own experience with infertility. She is the parent of two sons, one through reproductive technology and one through adoption.Carolyn believes that a successful family building journey continues after the baby comes home. People often need help transitioning to parenthood. Many benefit from coaching later on so they can talk to their children about their beginnings.Carolyn often works with people who embark on pregnancy after a loss, understanding that they can benefit from extra support. She has worked with couples and individuals who have experienced miscarriages and stillbirths on their journey towards parenthood.IS COUNSELING FOR YOU?When considering fertility treatment or adoption, counseling offers a safe place for you to express your emotions, explore your options and plan your next steps.
