Most perinatal training doesn't cover IVF. And clients already know.
If you specialize in perinatal mental health, your clients assume you're fluent in IVF. Most aren't — and most will tell you that honestly.
Graduate programs don't cover it. Even PMH-C certification addresses IVF in limited depth. That leaves skilled, well-intentioned clinicians building fluency on their own, in real time, with clients who are already in crisis.
One of the most destabilizing experiences in IVF is the attrition funnel — watching a promising number of eggs become a fraction of transferable embryos. Fourteen eggs retrieved can become one or two viable embryos. Clients experience this as daily grief, and most therapists have no framework for it.
Clients also routinely have their physical pain minimized during procedures — told to take some Advil before interventions that carry real trauma implications. That pain minimization has psychological consequences your clients are carrying into session.
Clients navigating IVF deserve a therapist who understands the medical process, the terminology, the emotional inflection points, and the identity disruption of prolonged treatment — without requiring translation in session.
"For the first time, I saw the impact of IVF on friendships laid out clearly. It gave words to something I was noticing in myself but couldn't name."

Introducing: The IVF Process Guide for Clinicians
A structured, 163-page clinical reference built for therapists and perinatal providers who want to feel genuinely fluent — not just familiar — when working with fertility clients.
This is not a general wellness guide. It is not a patient-facing resource. It is a dense, clinically grounded document written by a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in reproductive mental health and has personally navigated IVF.
It bridges the gap between what your training covered and what your clients are actually living through.
What the guide covers
Section I
IVF Language and Concepts
The terminology, acronyms, and fertility shorthand your clients use daily — so you never need a translation in session.
Section II
The IVF Medical Process
A clear walkthrough of the full cycle including the embryo grading system and the attrition funnel — the stage-by-stage drop in numbers that clients experience as daily grief.
Section III
The Physical and Psychological Experience
The cumulative medical burden of IVF, what it means to have your body become medical territory, and a dedicated chapter on pain minimization and gender bias in reproductive medicine.
Section IV
Systemic and Industry Issues
The larger context your clients are navigating — financial, relational, professional, and cultural — so you can understand their distress as systemic, not personal failure.
Section V
Clinical Guidance for Providers
Intervention strategies, trauma-informed frameworks, red flags, and applied tools for working with this population.
This guide is for you if —
You specialize in perinatal mental health and want deeper IVF fluency
You have a client navigating IVF and want to show up fully prepared
You're a reproductive endocrinologist, OB, midwife, or doula working alongside fertility patients
You're a therapist who has personally experienced infertility and want clinical language for your own experience
You want to understand the systemic and industry context your clients are navigating, not just the medical process
You want a reference you can return to across your entire career — not a one-time training
This guide is not for general audiences or patients. It is written clinician-to-clinician.
Who wrote this — and why
Dr. Andrea Liner is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in reproductive mental health — infertility, IVF, pregnancy after loss, and postpartum after complex journeys.
She has also been through IVF herself.
Both experiences — clinical and lived — taught her how wide the knowledge gap actually is, and how much it costs clients when it goes unaddressed. She wrote this guide because it didn't exist in the form it needed to.
Her work sits at the intersection of clinical rigor, lived credibility, and a commitment to raising the standard of care for one of the most underserved populations in mental health.

Is this a CEU course?
No. This is a clinical reference guide, not a CEU course. It does not come with continuing education credits. It is designed to build deep, lasting fluency — the kind you carry into every session, not just check off a box.
I already have my PMH-C. Do I need this?
PMH-C certification is valuable and covers perinatal mental health broadly. The IVF process is not covered in meaningful depth in most PMH-C curricula. This guide fills that specific gap.
Is this only for therapists?
No. It is written clinician-to-clinician and is useful for any provider working alongside IVF patients — reproductive endocrinologists, OBs, midwives, doulas, and nurses.
What format is it in?
The guide is a digital PDF delivered instantly after purchase. You can read it on any device, annotate it, and return to it as a reference throughout your career.
Why is the guide priced at $109?
At $109, this guide costs less than one consultation hour ($175/hour). It's a lifetime clinical reference you can return to across your entire career — for a fraction of your hourly rate.
Can I share it with colleagues?
The guide is licensed for individual use. If your practice or clinic is interested in multi-seat access, please reach out directly.
Your clients deserve a therapist who speaks their language.
This guide is how you get there.
