Infertility is a devastating diagnosis. It can be heartbreaking and isolating as friends and family members just don't get it and chime in with advice like "just relax, it'll happen". It can take a toll on relationships and leave you feeling broken and helpless.
And sometimes the treatments just compound the anxiety and depression…
You start to feel like some kind of lab rat stuck in a science experiment.
Maybe you look to natural treatments, which can leave you feeling deprived, restricted and bombarded with:
Unfortunately, it's not as simple as putting "get pregnant" on a to-do list. You may be doing everything right...
eating right, exercising right, taking the right supplements...
you may be even be working with a fertility clinic...
but it's still...
not...
happening.
What all these treatments ignore is the actual control center of the body.
Think about it. . . if you’re computer isn’t doing what you want it to do, you don’t just bombard it with more commands. . . instead you might clean the cache. . . clear the cookies. . . and update the software.
We need to update the software in your body’s control center.
Have you ever thought about what keeps your heart beating, keeps you breathing, or keeps the temperature of your body regulated? The control center for your body works behind the scenes keeping everything running the way it should.
However, sometimes we need to update the software or clean out the cache in this control center.
This control center is your deep mind, which is also the center of your emotions.
"I reached out because I had a lot of anxiety when it came to conceiving our second child. When it didn't happen when I thought it was supposed to/should happen, the anxiety became worse and worse.
Working with Rachel completely changed my life, not only during the fertility journey, but in every aspect of my life. After just a couple of sessions and religiously listneing to my recordings, I started noticing a difference in myself.
As time went on, the anxiety completely diminished and I was truly at peace with the journey and trusting that our baby was coming exactly when he needed to.
I also became a better mother to our daughter, our firstborn. When I finally "let go", we conceived our second child, a baby boy. "

By working with your deep mind, we update the software to put your body in the ideal state to get and stay pregnant, AND in the meantime, you get your life back.
You tap into deep peace and happiness… so much so that the baby is actually icing on the cake.
We do this by focusing on four main areas:
We rewire your nervous system so that you can shut down ‘fight or flight’ stress mode and trigger the relaxation response at will.
Chronic stress actually can be a major contributor to infertility… that’s why everybody tells you to “just relax”. But that’s like telling an insomniac “just sleep”. It’s a ridiculous over-simplification that ignores basic psychology and makes you want to punch the person saying it.
What’s needed are real, solid strategies backed by both psychology and biology; ways to tap into the relaxation response easily, simply, and predictably. By utilizing these tools you’ll start to find you need them less and less as we literally rewire your brain to be in this calm, chill state more of the time.
Not only do you feel dramatically better on a moment-to-moment, day-to-day basis, but it puts your body in the ideal state to get and stay pregnant.
Let go of fears, mental roadblocks, and the thoughts that keep you up at night so that you can finally remove the barriers that have been preventing the optimal environment for your body to become pregnant.
Fears/blocks may be things like:
These blocks can be a major factor in unexplained infertility, but can also contribute to other fertility issues.
Even though many fears are common among women trying to conceive, you are an individual and your combination of fears/blocks is as unique as you are. It’s important to recognize even if you don’t yet have clarity on what these blocks are, we can still clear them.
Your body’s control center, or your inner operating system’s number one priority is to keep you safe. If it perceives pregnancy or having a baby to be dangerous or detrimental to your happiness or well-being in any way, it can stop your body from being receptive to pregnancy.
Though you may logically know your fears are unfounded, they can still impact you physically. When we address and clear these insidious blocks, it allows your control center to feel safe. This ultimately allows your body to establish an ideal state for conception and a healthy pregnancy.
Awaken and amplify your body’s innate reproductive response so that your body is receptive to getting pregnantand actually staying pregnant.
As successful women in a male-dominated world, we sometimes subtly deny our own feminine energy. The problem is by subverting our Divine Feminine essence, we’ve shut down the innate receptivity needed to get and stay pregnant.
In Chinese medicine, they describe the male/female energies as yin (female) and yang (male). There’s nothing wrong with having a strong yang energy… it serves us powerfully in many ways, but by reawakening and revitalizing our more receptive yin energy and finding the right balance between the two, we create the ideal environment in the body to conceive and have a healthy pregnancy.
Everything we ever create is first created in our imagination.
Are the images you replay in your mind images of success or of failure? When you’re struggling and fearful, often these are images of continued struggle, disappointment, and failure.
By replacing those images with images of success, of a healthy, happy pregnancy and joyfully holding your baby in your arms, we change the address in your GPS so you get to exactly where you want to go. It updates the map so you can reach your desired destination.
As simple as it sounds, it’s the imagination that plays the game of convincing us that even our silliest fears might actually come true.
It’s the imagination that has us engaging in unhealthy behaviors and thought patterns—even when we don’t want to.
That’s why it’s vital to reactivate the inner GPS, which is a process to finally begin to work WITH the imagination rather than against it.
In these ways, we work with the deep mind, which is the center of your emotions and habits so that you can get your life back.
You’ll feel like yourself again. . . except more happy, balanced and peaceful. . . to the point where your baby is icing on the cake. And in that process, because we’re working with the body’s control center, it DRAMATICALLY INCREASES YOUR SUCCESS.
A study published in 2000, in the journal Fertility and Sterility, found that 55% of previously infertile women who met regularly in a mind/body program conceived, compared to only 20% of the control group who did not use mind/body techniques.
Another study, reported in Reproductive Endocrinology in April 2000, treated women in their second year of infertility who were not yet depressed. The women who received group therapy to avoid depression caused by infertility had significantly increased viable pregnancies compared to the group who did not receive preventative treatment for depression.
A study of the practical uses of hypnosis in enhancing fertility, healthy pregnancy, and childbirth, found hypnosis to be an effective method to reduce stress, enhance feelings of control, as well as to manage psycho-emotional issues that may be contributing to infertility. Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice (2009).
A study of the impact of hypnosis during embryo transfer (ET) found that the use of hypnosis during ET may significantly improve the IVF/ET cycle outcome in terms of increased implantation and clinical pregnancy rates. The hypnosis group saw double the conception rate compared to the non-hypnosis group. Fertility & Sterility (2006)
"Rachel has helped me so much throughout my IVF journey. The recorded sessions have become part of my nightly ritual and I also use them before and during any stressful doctor's appointments.
It was an investment but one that absolutely paid dividends as I was absolutely terrified of needles (a VERY bad issue to have while undergoing IVF). Rachel got me through it and her help has made the IVF process shockingly smooth.
I was not sure I could get through the retrieval. Not only did I get through it, but it really was not that bad. I truly believe that is in large part due to Rachel. I HIGHLY recommend working with Rachel during your fertility journey, whatever it may be."

The Deep Mind Fertility Reset is a multifaceted, comprehensive, hypnotic program. I use a holistic approach and work with the whole person, body, mind, and spirit.
You'll gain multiple tools that you can use for the rest of your life beyond our work together. Find out what using hypnosis for fertility can do for you.
In addition to my training in hypnotherapy, I bring over 20 years of experience in massage and bodywork, a Certification in Clinical Aromatherapy from the Institute of Spiritual Healing and Aromatherapy, and training in energy work and meditation.
Over the years I’ve found that many of the women I worked with had intense trauma. . . either deep-seated trauma from early childhood experiences or trauma from miscarriages or other baby losses. Because of that, I also sought out training using hypnosis for PTSD.
While this level of work may not always be necessary, it is deeply healing and profoundly effective in removing barriers.
I've put together three of my favorite tools that you can use right now to begin to rewire your nervous system. (More info below)
