Keep your heart open to the joy of welcoming a baby into your life while managing stress, disappointment and fear of the unknown.
Gay dads who do not have support through the challenges of the surrogacy journey often experience high levels of stress. Therefore, I offer a 12-month programme to support you with stress management, emotional challenges and relationship care.
What the 12-Month Programme includes:
- Forging a trusting and confidential relationship with an expert who will accompany you on this complex and lengthy experience until you have your baby in your arms.
- Expert knowledge and experience from a birth doula to learn how to work with the medical system for the best outcomes for the surrogate mother and your baby.
- Learning what you need to know about the process of labour and birth, including the best options, and why it is essential for your baby that you understand this.
- Knowing how to choose the right woman as your surrogate mother who shares your desire for a harmonious birth.
- Fundamentally taking care of your relationship throughout the journey, if you are a couple.
- Partnering with me on your journey if you are a single man, sharing the highs and lows of the experience.
- Meeting social prejudice with innate resilience and love and revolutionising the stale status quo.

Is waiting taking a toll?
- Waiting to find your ideal surrogate mother…
- Waiting for the ovum to be fertilized…
- Waiting for the transfer day…
- Waiting for the pregnancy test results…
- Waiting for news of scans and medical visits…
- Waiting for your call with your surrogate mother…
Does any of this sound familiar?
- Your surrogate mother has had failed assisted-fertility cycles and your levels of stress are mounting?
- Your surrogate mother has suffered a miscarriage and you feel that you need extra emotional support?
- You are going from the highest highs to the lowest lows on your surrogacy journey?
- You struggle to spend time with friends and family who mean well but don’t understand your anxiety around all the waiting?
- You feel like emotional stress is straining your relationship?
- You feel like you are doing this alone and your partner is not as involved, committed or invested?
- You are a single gay man, wishing you could share the mental and emotional strain as well as your hopes and milestones on the journey with someone who understands?
- You want to scream when you are told to “be patient”?
Gay men often experience struggle in their journey to fatherhood described by six psychological steps gay men go through in deciding to embark on a journey to gay fatherhood: (a) abandoning a traditional parent identity, (b) finding comfort in a gay identity, (c) recognizing gay father families, (d) seeking models and mentors, (e) recognizing the strengths of being a gay father and (f) articulating an expanded identity for themselves. (Gianino, 2008; Giesler, 2012)

No matter where you are on your personal life journey, you will receive a tailor-made programme to support you through your surrogacy experience.
1.
A strong strategy on how to move forward honouring who you are as a unique individual.
- We start by identifying where you find yourself in the process of surrogacy and what it is that challenges you at this particular stage.
- From there we decide what goals we can set that will enhance the experience and transform the challenges into opportunities for growth.
2.
Total Support so we can eliminate unnecessary stress and heartache from your life. I will:
- Provide absolute support to an individual or couple going through the surrogacy journey.
- Understand your needs and concerns and never judge or ever think a question is irrelevant or silly.
- Provide the safe space you need to air your frustrations and share your excitement.
3.
Awakened awareness so that you understand yourself better, alleviating stress and bringing joy and happiness to your journey to fatherhood.
- Often the decision to become a parent doesn’t receive the care and attention it deserves and what your child needs from you beyond the excellent plans you have for their physical comfort.
- This is your time to be more awake and aware than you have ever been.
- If you have experienced setbacks and feel despondent we take a fresh look at what you can do differently.
- Different vantage points offer options you may not have considered.
4.
Emotional and Mental Balance with tailor-made strategies to help you stay optimistic and grounded:
- We will explore any negative emotions or traumas that may be subconsciously blocking you.
- Together, we will find the appropriate tools and methods for you so that you have a more peaceful, calm and centered path.
5.
Managing your Anxiety to cope with the multitude of choices leading to vital decisions that you have to make. I will provide you with a safe, non-judging and personal place to share all your feelings.
- The challenges of the Surrogacy world for Gay Dads may be bringing up personal emotional issues that you don’t seem to be able to control.
- This throws you off kilter, given that you are not used to being out of control, having achieved success through exercising control in other areas of your life.
