Fertility & Perinatal Mental Health Counselling in Vancouver
1 in 6 couples in Canada struggle to conceive yet so many people suffer in silence. Many people who are trying to conceive, experiencing pregnancy loss, or are undergoing fertility treatment report feelings of low mood, anxiety, relationship strain, frustration, and loneliness.
As a fertility counsellor, I provide virtual sessions to individuals and couples looking for support with trying to conceive, fertility treatment, and postpartum struggles. Sessions are available to clients in Vancouver and throughout British Columbia.

Meet Leeya
Hi, I’m Leeya Schachter, a Registered Clinical Counsellor with over 20 years of experience in social services. I offer compassionate, informed support to individuals and couples navigating fertility challenges, pregnancy loss, and the transition into pregnancy and postpartum. My work is informed by both professional training and lived experience with fertility treatment and postpartum challenges. Sessions take place virtually for clients in Vancouver and throughout British Columbia.
I understand how overwhelming and isolating trying to conceive, pregnancy loss, and postpartum struggles can feel.
In our work together, I aim to create a space where you feel safe to share the complexity of what you are thinking and feeling and to feel like you have someone who is truly “in it” with you. My goal is to help my clients feel seen, less alone, and to develop coping tools to navigate these difficult experiences.
