Pregnancy & Infant Loss Counseling

Compassionate Support After Miscarriage, Stillbirth, TFMR & Infant Loss

Losing a pregnancy or baby at any stage can feel devastating. 

There is no timeline. Whether your loss was recent or happened years ago, grief can show up in unexpected ways. 

These feelings of sadness, anger, numbness, guilt, anxiety, trauma, or disconnect can alienate from yourself and others.

Pregnancy and infant loss can feel incredibly isolating, especially when the world keeps moving while your own feels forever changed.

  • Your grief deserves space.

  • Your story deserves to be witnessed.

  • And your baby matters.

Betty offers compassionate, trauma-informed pregnancy loss counseling in Millcreek, Utah for individuals and families navigating miscarriage, stillbirth, infant loss, and reproductive grief. 

Therapy can be a place to process what happened, make sense of your emotions, and begin healing in a way that honors your experience and your bond with your baby.

There is No Right Way to Grieve

There is no “right way” to grieve pregnancy or infant loss.

Whether your loss happened early in pregnancy, after birth, during fertility treatment, or through a deeply complicated medical decision, your experience matters. Your pain does not need to be explained or justified to deserve support.

Betty works with clients navigating:

  • Early miscarriage or chemical pregnancy

  • Recurrent miscarriage

  • Second-trimester pregnancy loss

  • Stillbirth

  • Neonatal loss

  • Infant loss

  • TFMR (termination for medical reasons)

  • Failed embryo transfer or loss of a hoped-for future pregnancy

  • Ambiguous or complex reproductive loss

  • Grief connected to infertility, IVF, or reproductive trauma

Therapy for Miscarriage, Pregnancy Loss & Infant Loss Can Help You:

Pregnancy loss and infant loss often carry both grief and trauma. Therapy offers space for both.

Together, you may work on:

  • Processing grief while honoring your connection with your baby

  • Making space for sadness, anger, guilt, shame, or numbness

  • Healing traumatic memories related to miscarriage, labor, delivery, or medical procedures

  • EMDR therapy for trauma connected to pregnancy or infant loss

  • Coping with triggers, anniversaries, due dates, and milestones

  • Navigating family, cultural, or spiritual expectations around grief

  • Strengthening communication and connection with your partner

  • Exploring rituals, remembrance, and meaning-making

  • Preparing emotionally for future pregnancies or reproductive decisions

What Support Looks Like: Pregnancy Loss Support

Understanding Your Story

We begin by exploring your reproductive journey — the procedures, the disappointments, the fears, the pressure, the grief, and the parts you may not have said out loud yet. This helps us understand how the trauma lives in your body, your thoughts, and your relationships, so we know where to start and what support you truly need.

Processing Trauma (EMDR/ERP)

When you feel steady enough, we gently process the trauma you’ve been carrying — medical procedures, painful treatments, losses, uncertainty, and the fear of what comes next.

Using EMDR and ERP, we work at your pace to reduce distress, reshape fear responses, and create more room for clarity and stability.

Stabilization & Support

Before we do any trauma processing, we build emotional and nervous-system safety.

This may include grounding, resourcing, attachment work, identifying triggers, and creating space for your emotions without judgment. You’ll never be pushed to go faster than your body or mind is ready for.

Integration & Decision Support

As therapy unfolds, we explore how to integrate what you’ve learned into the present and future.

This may involve navigating new cycles, making informed decisions about treatment paths, working through relationship dynamics, rebuilding trust in your body, and identifying what healing looks like for you — not what others expect.
