Family Planning Counseling in Dubai

Preparing for Parenthood: Emotional and Psychological Aspects

Family planning counseling is a psychological service that addresses the emotional aspects of becoming a parent. Zita Chriszto, a DHA-licensed clinical psychologist, offers this support to individuals and couples preparing to start or expand their families in Dubai. Her approach focuses on emotional readiness, relationship dynamics, and coping strategies, helping clients manage the complex feelings associated with this significant life transition.

Causes: Emotional Stressors in Family Planning

Emotional stress during family planning often stems from concerns about fertility, relationship dynamics, and the transition into parenthood. A study by Domar et al. (2012) found that 26% of women who received fertility treatment felt more hopeful, compared to 21% who did not seek treatment, with 33% of treated women feeling closer to their partners. Addressing these emotional barriers is essential, as unresolved stress can delay decision-making and strain relationships. Zita Chriszto’s family planning counseling in Dubai provides support to manage these challenges and build resilience.
