Our approach
to pregnancy loss and grief therapy
- 01 Deep expertise in infertility and reproductive loss Your therapist already understands the emotional and clinical complexities of pregnancy loss and reproductive grief.
- 02 Thoughtfully selected therapists We carefully vet every therapist, so you don’t have to search through hundreds of profiles hoping to find someone who gets it.
- 03 One price so you can focus on fit Every 50-minute session is $250, regardless of which therapist you choose. Your decision can be about who feels right for you, not what they cost.
Before you book your session
Every Lavela therapist is licensed in California and has specialized training in reproductive loss, perinatal mental health, and trauma. We carefully select clinicians for both expertise and fit, then match each member based on what they are navigating.
