The Missing Link in Fertility Care

At Cali Coaching, we believe fertility care must support the whole person — not just the medical process. While clinics focus on treatment, many patients silently struggle with the emotional toll. The result? High dropout rates, reduced confidence, and unnecessary strain on staff.

We partner with clinics to provide structured emotional coaching that strengthens patient resilience, reduces burnout, and builds trust. The outcome is a model of care that is clinically excellent and emotionally empowering.

Why Emotional Support Matters in Fertility Care

The numbers are clear:

  • 73% of patients cite the emotional toll of IVF as a barrier to continuing treatment.
  • 1 in 3 patients do not return for a second IVF cycle due to burnout.
  • Only 11% of those struggling with fertility seek professional emotional support.
  • Nurses and clinic staff often carry the emotional load without training or tools.

Without dedicated emotional care, patients are more likely to feel isolated, overwhelmed, and disengaged from treatment.

The Impact of Emotional Coaching on Outcomes

Research consistently shows that emotional coaching and psychosocial support improve psychological wellbeing, treatment adherence, and even clinical outcomes:

  • Reduce stress, anxiety, and depression during IVF.
  • Strengthen coping strategies, leading to more confident decision-making.
  • Improve retention by helping patients return after setbacks.
  • Increase clinical pregnancy rates by up to 15% when women feel emotionally supported.

By integrating emotional well-being alongside medical treatment, clinics can create a stronger, more supportive patient journey.
