Working with Infertility and Grief: A Practical Guide for Helping Professionals explores issues of grief, including disenfranchised grief and chronic sorrow, related to infertility and reproductive loss. Out of the small handful of books related to this topic, this is the first of its kind geared toward equipping helping professionals who assist those grieving unrecognized losses. Written through the lens of the literary framework of The Hero's Journey, this comprehensive practitioner guide directly targets mental health professionals working with clients, supervisees, or students who have experienced infertility, miscarriage, or death of an infant. This book is also for those who experienced it themselves. Readers will learn more about the crisis of infertility and reproductive loss, gain insight into the experience of those suffering, and acquire practical tools and strategies for helping and healing. This text is broad enough to be integrated into a course for a graduate program and specific enough to serve as a shelf reference for those in practice.

Industry Reviews

"Working with Infertility and Grief will be an incredibly helpful resource for individuals and couples struggling with infertility and for the professionals that offer support as they cope with the disenfranchised grief that can accompany this issue. Sensitively written and highly accessible, this book offers sage advice on both the medical and emotional issues that underlie infertility. Both clinicians and their clients dealing with infertility will not only benefit from this book but will want and need it."

-Kenneth J. Doka, senior vice president for grief programs at The Hospice Foundation of America and author of Disenfranchised Grief: New Directions, Challenges, and Strategies for Practice
