Starting or continuing your family-building journey in 2026 can bring hope, uncertainty, grief, and courage—often all at once. Whether you’re navigating infertility, surrogacy, donor conception, pregnancy loss, or LGBTQ+ family building, there is no single “right” path to parenthood. At Ebb & Flow Psychological Associates, we support intended parents with compassionate, expert reproductive mental health care—so you don’t have to navigate this journey alone.

Hey Jude Box Co. is a values-aligned project created by Ebb & Flow founder Dr. Jennifer Collins, inspired by personal loss and grounded in clinical expertise. Through thoughtfully written digital coping cards, the brand offers accessible, evidence-based support for grief, infertility, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm—designed for everyday moments, not just therapy sessions.

The holidays are often portrayed as joyful, but for those navigating infertility, this season can feel heavy and emotionally complex. Family gatherings, pregnancy announcements, and well-meaning questions can reopen tender wounds. If you’re bracing for the holidays, know you’re not alone. With thoughtful boundaries, self-compassion, and support, it’s possible to move through this season while protecting your emotional well-being.

You are not alone. This National Infertility Awareness Week, we explore the emotional toll of infertility, and the support available to you.

Learn how to manage infertility-related stress with coping strategies, emotional support, and compassionate guidance from Ebb & Flow.
