Fertility Journey as Initiation

Not a problem to solve but a passage that changes you

If you’re here, you’re likely carrying more than unanswered questions about fertility. You’re carrying years of hope, grief, waiting, and trying to stay steady when your body hasn’t followed the plan you imagined.

This journey isn’t just about conceiving. It’s about what happens to a woman when control no longer works and something deeper is asked of her.

Here, we don’t try to fix your body or push you to think positively. We slow things down. We restore safety. We listen to what your nervous system and womb have been holding all along.

This is a space for women who are done striving
and ready to come home to themselves.

You are not broken.
You are not behind.
You are standing at a threshold.

This Is an Initiation, Not a Failure.

Meet Heli Ukkonen

Therapist, mother and emotional guide for women navigating the fertility journey

I didn't arrive at this work because everything went smoothly. I arrived because I know what it's like to feel betrayed by your own body. To lose something you couldn't control. To question whether your desire even matters anymore.

For a long time, I believed that if I just healed more, controlled my body more and knew more I would finally figure it out and get it right. If I just found the right protocol, I would finally get the outcome I wanted.

And then something different happened. I didn't get a breakthrough. I didn't fix anything. I arrived. I stopped arguing with life. And I realised that the work was never about getting pregnant. It was about coming home to myself. I healed my relationship to life itself.

Along the way, I immersed myself in the science and practice of emotional healing:

MA in Cultural Anthropology

Graduate Diploma in Psychology

Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy – UK College of Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy

Certificate in Somatic Embodiment and Regulation Strategies with Linda Thai

I’ve also explored body‑mind practices including:

The Trager® Approach (gentle bodywork)

Yoga, meditation, and breathwork

I'm a certified Fast Like A Girl™ Lifestyle Coach - focusing on nourishing the body with food, rest, and kindness

Work With Me

My work is not about making something happen. It's about changing how you are inside what is happening.

My work is not about you becoming someone else or fixing what you believe is broken. It's about gently restoring what was lost along the way: safety, trust, and a sense of being at home in yourself.

Yes, this work asks for honesty. It asks you to feel what has been avoided. It asks you to slow down enough to listen. This is not a small work.

And at the same time, it offers you something rare: You are remembering how to come back to yourself. And from that place, your future begins to unfold differently.

This Is For You If…

If you are done trying to get it right

You feel emotionally exhausted by TTC

Your body feels like something you can't quite trust anymore

You want support that is not more protocols and tools

You sense there is another way (even if you don't know what it is yet)
