Infertility is a disease characterised by the inability to reach a clinical pregnancy after 12 months or more of regular and unprotected sexual intercourse. It is estimated to affect between 8 and 12% of reproductive-aged couples worldwide, with approximately 25% of couples finding no identified cause (Vander Borght & Wyns, 2018).

​

Infertility has a profound impact on an individual's mental health, and on all aspects of their life. The psychological impact of infertility presents unique challenges and a broad range of clinical presentations for CBT Therapists. This workshop will help participants to understand the psychological factors associated with infertility and how this can be considered within a cognitive behavioural framework. A combination of teaching, case examples, and interactive exercise will be used.

​

Learning outcomes:

  • To understand what is meant by ‘infertility’ and how it can affect clients

  • To be able to effectively assess and conceptualise psychological difficulties in the context of infertility using a CBT framework

  • To apply existing knowledge of CBT principles to plan formulation driven interventions, taking into consideration factors that are likely to be particular to infertility

  • To understand your own ‘reproductive story’ and the impact of this
