Infertility &
Pregnancy Loss
Therapy
Space for the hope,
the waiting, the grief.
When growing your family becomes uncertain, it can take up more of your life than anyone else sees. The appointments. The waiting. The effort of getting through an ordinary day while carrying something that feels anything but ordinary.
You don’t have to arrive hopeful, know what comes next, or find the right words. We can start where you are.

Space for the hope, the waiting, the grief
What others may not see
So much of this
happens quietly.
You may be showing up at work, answering messages, and making plans while your thoughts keep returning to what you’re waiting for—or what you’ve lost.
There’s room for feelings that seem to contradict each other, and for feelings you’re not ready to name.
- Bracing for appointments, test results, or another treatment cycle.
- Feeling worn down by the movement between hope and disappointment.
- Finding pregnancy announcements, family questions, or celebrations painful.
- Feeling alone when others offer advice or try to find a bright side.
- Struggling with self-blame, anger, numbness, or a loss of trust in your body.
- Wanting support from your partner while experiencing things differently.
Miscarriage & pregnancy loss
Your loss deserves
room.
You may be grieving a pregnancy, the future you imagined, or moments you thought you would get to have. Other people may not understand what this loss means to you.
Therapy offers space to talk about it without having to make it easier for someone else to hear. We can make room for memories, questions, anger, silence, or the days when you just want to get through.
You don’t have to find meaning in what happened or follow anyone else’s timeline.
Trying to conceive, IVF & fertility treatment
When life starts
to feel on hold.
Treatment and prolonged trying to conceive can bring repeated decisions, changing plans, and waiting periods that are hard to step away from. You may feel pressure to keep going while also wondering how much more you can carry.
We can explore what you need emotionally, how to communicate your limits, and how to make space for parts of your life beyond appointments and outcomes.
You can talk through continuing, pausing, or reconsidering your plans without being pushed toward a particular decision.
Our work together
Support that meets you
where you are.
We’ll decide together what feels most important. Some sessions may focus on getting through the coming week; others may make room for grief, relationships, or questions about your future.
- Working with anxiety during waiting periods and around appointments.
- Processing pregnancy loss and the emotions that come with it.
- Responding to self-blame and pressure with more understanding.
- Setting boundaries around questions, advice, and family expectations.
- Communicating with your partner when your needs or ways of grieving differ.
- Reconnecting with your values, relationships, and sense of self.
Pregnancy after infertility or loss
Hope and fear
can exist together.
A new pregnancy may bring relief without taking away what you’ve been through. You might feel cautious about celebrating, anxious before appointments, or unsure how to let yourself look ahead.
We can make space for this pregnancy and your earlier experiences, without expecting you to feel a certain way.
Susan Hea Jin Ko, LMFT
Care that leaves room
for your whole story.
I bring a warm, collaborative approach to supporting people through fertility concerns, pregnancy loss, anxiety, and the changes these experiences can bring.
As a Korean American and a 1.5-generation immigrant, I also make room for the ways culture, family expectations, and ideas about parenthood may shape your experience. I’ll stay curious about what matters to you.
