SUMMARY:ΟΜΑΔΑ ΥΠΟΣΤΗΡΙΞΗΣ ΓΙΑ ΕΞΩΣΩΜΑΤΙΚΗ ΓΟΝΙΜΟΠΟΙΗΣΗ
DESCRIPTION:ΟΜΑΔΑ ΥΠΟΣΤΗΡΙΞΗΣ ΓΙΑ ΕΞΩΣΩΜΑΤΙΚΗ ΓΟΝΙΜΟΠΟΙΗΣΗ \nΤα ζευγάρια που αντιμετωπίζουν υπογονιμότητα και βρίσκονται στη διαδικασία της εξωσωματικής γονιμοποίησης\, πολλές φορές βιώνουν απογοήτευση\, θλίψη και άγχος. Επιπρόσθετα\, εφόσον νιώθουν ότι λίγοι μπορούν να κατανοήσουν αυτά που περνούν\, απομονώνονται συναισθηματικά\, με αποτέλεσμα να ενταθεί η αρνητικότητα των συναισθημάτων τους. Η σχέση μεταξύ τους συχνά επηρεάζεται\, σε μια χρονική στιγμή που χρειάζεται να είναι δυνατότερη από ποτέ. \nΗ ομάδα υποστήριξης έχει δημιουργηθεί με σκοπό να παρέχει σημαντικές γνώσεις για την εξωσωματική\, να επικυρώσει και να απαλύνει τα αρνητικά συναισθήματα παρέχοντας τεχνικές διαχείρισης τους\, και να μεταδώσει το αίσθημα ότι υπάρχουν και άλλοι που περνούν τα ίδια και μπορούν να καταλάβουν τις δυσκολίες. \nΗ ομάδα προσφέρεται για όσα ζευγάρια ή άτομα βρίσκονται ή πρόκειται να μπουν στη διαδικασία της εξωσωματικής\, και που θα ήθελαν να μοιραστούν τις εμπειρίες τους\, ή απλά να ακούσουν\, σε ένα περιβάλλον αλληλοστήριξης. \nΣυντονίζει η καταρτισμένη ομάδα του Birth Forward που αποτελείται από τις:\n– Στέφανη Νικολάου\, εμβρυολόγος και βοηθός μητρότητας με ειδίκευση στην ολιστική αντιμετώπιση της υπογονιμότητας \n«Η ομάδα στήριξης προσέφερε σε μας τη δυνατότητα να «ανοιχτούμε» και να μιλήσουμε για όλα τα θέματα της εξωσωματικής γονιμοποίησης που μας απασχολούσαν. Συγχρόνως\, μας έδωσε την ευκαιρία να έρθουμε σε επαφή και με άλλα ζευγάρια με παρόμοια θέματα υπογονιμότητας και να ανταλλάξουμε σκέψεις\, συναισθήματα\, εμπειρίες και ανησυχίες. Περισσότερο\, όμως\, μας έδειξε ότι δεν είμαστε μόνοι σε αυτό το ταξίδι. Στο δύσκολο (και ευχόμαστε σύντομο) ταξίδι μας ξέρουμε ότι θα έχουμε ανά πάσα στιγμή την ψυχολογική και συμβουλευτική υποστήριξη της ομάδας Birth Forward.»
