Embarking on the journey of surrogacy is one of the most emotionally complex
experiences for intended parents. The path to parenthood through surrogacy is filled with
moments of joy, hope, and sometimes, uncertainty. At Hera, founded by Evie Jeang, we
understand the importance of emotional support during this process. That’s why we
prioritize providing compassionate, tailored assistance to help intended parents navigate
every step of their surrogacy journey with confidence and peace of mind.
The Emotional Rollercoaster of Surrogacy
Surrogacy is a deeply personal journey, and it’s normal for intended parents to experience
a wide range of emotions, from excitement to anxiety. The sense of anticipation as you
wait for a child to arrive is often accompanied by questions, doubts, and the pressure of
making the right decisions. Many intended parents also face feelings of vulnerability as
they place their trust in a surrogate and navigate complex medical, legal, and logistical
challenges.
At Hera, we believe that addressing the emotional needs of intended parents is just as
crucial as managing the physical and legal aspects of the surrogacy process. By providing
consistent support, we help ensure that you feel heard, understood, and empowered
throughout your journey.
Personalized Counseling and Guidance
From the moment you begin considering surrogacy, having access to the right emotional
resources is essential. At Hera, we offer personalized counseling to help intended parents
manage the emotional challenges that arise during the surrogacy process. This includes
one-on-one sessions with our dedicated support team, where we listen to your concerns
and provide the tools and coping strategies to navigate difficult moments.
Our emotional support isn’t just about offering a shoulder to lean on; it’s about helping
you build a strong, healthy mindset so you can fully embrace the joy of growing your
family.
Building a Relationship with Your Surrogate
One of the most unique and rewarding aspects of surrogacy is the bond that forms
between the intended parents and the surrogate. However, this relationship can also bring
its own emotional challenges. At Hera, we guide intended parents in cultivating open
communication and mutual respect with their surrogate.
Having transparent, regular conversations with your surrogate is crucial in creating a
foundation of trust and understanding. We provide tools and tips on how to navigate
sensitive conversations, establish boundaries, and foster a positive, respectful
relationship that helps everyone involved feel supported.
Community and Peer Support
The surrogacy journey can sometimes feel isolating, especially if you don’t have others
around you who are familiar with the process. At Hera, we provide access to a supportive
community of intended parents who can share their experiences, offer advice, and provide
emotional encouragement. Connecting with others who are on a similar path can help
alleviate feelings of loneliness and provide a sense of belonging.
Whether through online groups, peer mentorship, or our organized events, Hera offers a
network of individuals who understand the unique emotional journey of surrogacy and are
there to support one another.
A Holistic Approach to Emotional Wellness
In addition to professional counseling and peer support, we also encourage a holistic
approach to emotional wellness. Taking care of your mental and emotional health is an
important part of the surrogacy process, and at Hera, we provide resources on
mindfulness, stress management, and self-care techniques.
We also recommend that intended parents seek professional therapy, if needed, to address
deeper emotional challenges and ensure that they’re fully prepared for the journey ahead.
