Therapy for Women on Complex Reproductive Journeys
Whether your story is unfolding, unraveling, or unexpectedly leading somewhere new
You May Be Here Because…
-
~ You’re facing fertility challenges, exhausted from the monthly rollercoaster of tests, two-week waits, and fading hope
-
~ You've experienced pregnancy loss—or losses—and are carrying a grief few people talk about
-
~ You’re single & childless not by choice, quietly watching milestones pass as time moves on
-
~ You’re part of the LGBTQ+ community, working to build a family in a world that can make it harder than it should be
-
~ You’re pregnant or postpartum after infertility or loss, carrying feelings that are more complicated than you envisioned
Support for the path you didn’t plan
When the journey to parenthood feels uncertain, it can feel like you're carrying an invisible weight. Grief, anxiety, and isolation often surface in quiet moments when the life you hoped for feels distant. You don’t have to navigate this alone.
Hi, I’m Leila Zwelling, LCSW, PMH-C
I’m a certified perinatal mental health therapist dedicated to helping women throughout the reproductive years and beyond. My specialties include fertility challenges, pregnancy loss, single & childless not by choice, nontraditional paths to parenthood, and pregnancy after infertility or loss. I also work with women throughout the lifespan, helping them heal from depression, anxiety, relationship issues, health challenges, and trauma.
With more than 20 years of clinical experience, advanced training in evidence-based psychotherapy, and insight shaped by both professional work and personal understanding, I’m here to support you with knowledge and care. My practice is LGBTQ+ affirming and inclusive of all identities, relationship structures, and paths to or away from parenthood.
Therapy with me offers space to be honest about what hurts—without pressure to “stay positive” or justify how you feel. We’ll explore what you’re holding and begin to reconnect with your sense of self, meaning, and purpose. Together, we’ll make room for what’s true now, and what’s still possible.
Wherever you are on your journey—trying, grieving, questioning, or rebuilding—I’m here to meet you with empathy and expertise.
