About
At Ello, we are dedicated to providing specialized care for women and their partners who have experienced the loss of a baby at any gestation. This includes all forms of pregnancy loss including Termination for Medical Reason (TFMR) and Vanishing Twin Syndrome (VTS). Our clinical director and therapist, Madeline Alexander, has experienced Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL) and has spent many years serving the loss community. Miscarriage therapy involves evidence-based therapies and resources to address the unique needs of each individual and their grief experience. Your loss matters here.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the common symptoms when coping with miscarriage?
It’s common to feel tired, have appetite changes, or have difficulty sleeping after a miscarriage. You may feel empty or experience guilt, shock, sadness, jealousy or anger – sometimes at a partner or at loved ones who have had successful pregnancies. People grieve in different ways. These symptoms can vary in severity and may present differently in each person.
Do you treat individuals or couples?
At Ello, we provide miscarriage therapy to both individuals and couples. Everybody deserves support after they lose a baby, no matter the gestation.
What happens in the first session?
During your first session, your therapist will guide you through the therapy process, ask questions to understand your problem better and get to know you from a holistic perspective. Many individuals and couples find hope and relief in their first session after taking the critical first step toward improvement. This initial session frequently leads to new realizations and insights.
How often will I need to attend therapy?
You and your therapist will work together to figure out a schedule that fits your needs and lifestyle, whether it’s weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. Research has shown that individuals and couples who attend counselling regularly often find the most positive results. It’s all about creating a supportive routine that helps you thrive!
What are the rates?
It is common to feel concerned about counselling costs, but viewing it as a valuable investment in your well-being is essential. Taking this step for yourself can lead to meaningful change, and the cost of not seeking help can be much greater. Remember, many extended health care plans offer coverage for these services. Your health and happiness truly deserve this investment.
