Therapeutic and Mindful Groups

Lori Posner, MS, LMFT facilitates a number of Therapeutic and Mindful groups which include:

Frequently people struggling with infertility feel very alone. Group is a place to feel less isolated, to share and be heard and to help you cope with the chronic stressors of infertility. Connecting with others and sharing your feelings in group therapy can help you feel more balanced and have less negative or depressive feelings throughout the day. Group cannot eliminate your chronic stressors but it can help you cope with them and get more enjoyment out of life while you deal with the pain and sadness. This is an excellent way to continue the healing path after the 8 week Mindful Fertility Program but can be attended on a stand-alone basis.
