Supporting your well-being throughout fertility care
Family building touches every part of your life. At Everleap Fertility, we recognize that your emotional and physical well-being are important parts of your care. Through select clinics we offer counseling, nutrition guidance, and acupuncture to support you alongside your care.
Counseling
Fertility treatment can bring a range of emotions, and they may change from one cycle to the next. A mental health professional with fertility experience can support individuals and couples with:
- Coping with treatment and waiting
- Pregnancy loss and unsuccessful cycles
- Relationship challenges
- Decisions about next steps and paths to parenthood
Nutrition
Nutrition can be one part of caring for yourself as you prepare for fertility treatments, especially when managing a condition such as PCOS (also called PMOS). A registered nutritionist can help you:
- Build a plan around your medical history, routine, and treatment
- Develop practical habits that fit your life
- Review supplements with your care team
Acupuncture
Caring for yourself during fertility treatment can include exploring complementary approaches such as acupuncture. An acupuncturist with fertility experience, working alongside your care team, can support you with:
- Understand how sessions may fit with your treatment
- Questions about timing during a cycle
Support groups
Support groups and peer communities can offer space to share experiences and hear from others on a similar path. Your care team can help you find a community and explore other resources along the way.

Q&A
What does wellness support include during fertility care?
Wellness support addresses the emotional and physical aspects of your experience alongside medical treatment. Depending on your needs, it may include counseling, nutrition guidance, acupuncture, support groups, or discussion of different approaches. Your care team can help you explore available resources.
When should I ask about emotional support?
You can ask at any point, before treatment, during a cycle, between treatments, or as you consider what comes next. You do not need to wait until you feel overwhelmed.
Can my partner join counseling sessions?
Many fertility mental health professionals offer both individual and couples counseling. Joint sessions can help you talk through different feelings, communication needs, and decisions about family building options. You can also attend sessions on your own.
Do I need to follow a specific diet during fertility treatment?
Nutrition needs are personal. Your care team or a nutritionist can help you understand whether any changes are appropriate based on your health history and treatment plan.
Can I have acupuncture during fertility treatment?
If you are interested in acupuncture, discuss it with your fertility care team before scheduling sessions. They can help you consider how it may fit with your care and whether timing or other treatment considerations apply.
How do I find a fertility support group?
Ask your care team about groups or organizations that support people navigating fertility and family building. Options may include virtual or in-person groups, as well as communities focused on experiences, such as pregnancy loss, LGBTQ+ family building, or donor-assisted reproduction.
Are wellness services available at every Everleap Fertility location?
Services and referral resources vary by location. Your local care team can help you understand which options are available through your practice, virtually, or in your community.
Does insurance cover wellness services?
Coverage depends on your insurance plan, the service, and the provider. Before scheduling, contact your insurer and the provider’s office to confirm coverage, referral requirements, and any out-of-pocket costs.
