The emotional side of wanting a child
Hardly any medical topic is as emotional as an unfulfilled wish to have children. The hope, the disappointment, the waiting, the fear – all of this is part of the journey. And all of it is completely normal.
What many couples experience
- Guilt ("Is it my fault?")
- Isolation ("No one understands us")
- Grief after failures
- Outside pressure ("When is it finally going to happen?")
- Strain on the relationship
Our stance
Fertility treatment is more than medicine. We pay attention to your emotional health just as much as to your hormones and eggs. That is why we offer basic psychosomatic care as an integral part of our treatment.
Psychological support
We work with experienced therapists who specialise in fertility:
- Kathrin Steinke (kinderwunsch-in-berlin.de)
- Pascale Chartrain (kinderwunschzeit.de)
- Dr. Pinar Grunert
- Katharina Horn
Our tip
Talk to us openly when the strain becomes too great. There is no wrong time for psychological support.
