Battling infertility is challenging on so many levels. The stress of wanting to become a parent and continuing to face failure can be physically and emotionally overwhelming. There are over seven million people currently facing infertility in the United States. It can create tension between couples, family, and friends. In Chicago there is a place where people can go to get help with their infertility problems. Mindy Berkson opened the Lotus Blossom Counseling Center to offer people the guidance and support they need to manage this difficult challenge. It is one stop shopping for her clients. She treats each client as an individual doing a thorough assessment of the specific assistance needed. She has put together an impressive list of doctors, lawyers, clinics, therapists, adoption and donor services, and numerous other program and agencies dealing with infertility related issues. There is an enormous array of emotional, medical, legal, and ethical questions to consider for anyone engaged in an infertility journey.
Ms. Berkson acts as a personal guide for her clients helping them define their needs, identify what direction they choose to go, and linking them with the necessary providers. She also continues to follow up with her clients during all phases of this process. This helps her clients begin to feel some sense of control over a situation that feels out of control at times. It means a lot to her and her clients that she can be there. Having some of the stresses of negotiating the infertility journey removed helps those wanting to family build feel stronger and more optimistic about their future.
Ms. Berkson also has a personal perspective about infertility. She underwent three years of infertility treatment to help build her family. She has three children. Costs at Lotus Blossom vary depending on the services that are required. Everyone agrees having an advocate in your corner can make a big difference for everyone involved.
