Amy Vickery
BSW, RSW | Fertility Therapist
Amy has spent 27 years as a social worker, and she knows the weight of infertility firsthand. Her three children all came after years of failed fertility treatments, and along the way she carried the guilt and shame that societal expectations can place on someone going through that. She also knew, deeply, what it meant to have real support carry her through it.
Amy believes we need to talk about mental health as openly as we talk about physical health, and she wants to be that kind of support for others. She works closely with the trans community as well, helping with name change and gender marker documentation, and every path to parenthood is one she considers valid.
