You may be at a crossroads in your journey to create a family. Or you may have always welcomed the idea of growing a family through alternative options. No matter what reason brought you to alternative family building, many feel overwhelmed by the multitude of decision that must be made. While others may have experienced an immense loss along their path and struggle with fears over what the future holds. Alternative family building can leave us with an immense amount of unanswered questions and a multitude of mixed emotions. Others who have chosen a path of gamete donation, adoption, or surrogacy, may be emotionally exhausted by the rollercoaster of events along their path. As if building a family isn’t hard enough, many feel overwhelmed by the additional stress and fears from third party reproduction. You do not have to navigate this path alone. Alternative family building counseling can provide individuals and couples with support to make an informed decision as to which path is right for them, emotionally preparing oneself and one’s family once that decision is made, and assistance coping while on the path to becoming parents. Creating your family through alterative family building can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life. Give yourself the gift of having the right kind of support during this process to make it the best possible experience you can have.
