C3 Support Groups
An infertility diagnosis and follow-up treatment isn’t just physically and financially draining. It takes an emotional toll as well. That’s why we provide you with free, professional emotional support.
Yesh Tikva’s free Support Groups create an inviting virtual space where everyone can listen and share. Our goal is to provide a caring environment where you can meet others navigating the infertility journey and openly discuss the issues you’re facing.
Please review the free services we offer and then contact us via email, the below “contact us” form.
COMPASSION – We are holding space for you. We are present, listening and making sure that you feel heard, loved and supported.
CONVERSATION – Sometimes it can feel very lonely and can be difficult sharing with others. Our groups provide you with a place to safely end your silence and share with others who understand.
COMMUNITY – You will have the opportunity to connect others in a similar space on their fertility journey. In this space you are not an “other,’ you are one of us, a valued member of this community.
All support groups are free of charge and run by our team of trained experts: Dvora Entin, LCSW, PMH-C; Naomi Rosenkranz, M.S.Ed, Dr. Talia Hindin, PsyD and Rabbi Micheal Bleicher, LCSW.

FERTILITY FRIENDS
In addition to support groups, Yesh Tikva’s “Fertility Friends” program pairs those struggling with infertility with peer mentors who have already faced a similar struggle. Fertility Friends pairs are made based on diagnosis, medical history, age and personality preferences. These trained peer mentors become someone you can openly talk to and rely on. They provide individualized support at a time when you most need it.
