Hi, I’m Ailie.

I offer fertility counselling for those navigating fertility challenges, pregnancy loss, and reproductive trauma who are looking for a space to feel understood, supported, and less alone in what they’re carrying.

Many of the people who undertake fertility counselling with me describe feeling as though they are coping on the outside while internally feeling overwhelmed, anxious, isolated, or emotionally exhausted. Therapy offers a space where all of that can be acknowledged without pressure to minimise it, stay positive, or keep going alone.

I am particularly drawn to this work because fertility challenges and reproductive loss can be profoundly isolating experiences. They often affect far more than your reproductive journey, impacting your sense of self, relationships, confidence, and hopes for the future. I believe people deserve a space where the complexity of these experiences can be spoken about openly and compassionately.

I am a BACP-registered psychotherapist, a member of the British Infertility Counselling Association (BICA) working towards accreditation, and have completed specialist training in infant loss and perinatal support through the Foundation for Infant Loss.  I have worked for over ten years with families and parents from diverse backgrounds in an Education setting and in the charity sector.  I bring this depth of experience to my counselling work.
