What do you do when your Faith in God's plan for your life is disrupted by infertility? In this episode, Dr. Anna Locke shares how she bridged the gap between Religious beliefs and getting help through reproductive assistance. Dr. Anna and her husband suffered from dual factor infertility and when she gave birth through c-section to her twins, endometriosis was discovered.

Dr. Anna is an international award-winning author and educator who has worked in the mental health profession for more than 15 years. She holds a doctorate in counseling and is a licensed professional counselor in multiple states, including Puerto Rico. She currently owns Charlandra Counseling Services, a virtual infertility counseling center; and is an assistant professor at Nyack College. Dr. Anna is an active leader in the American Counseling Association, and author of "Body Betrayal: Living and Understanding Infertility" and "Introduction to 21st Century Counseling: A Multicultural and Social Justice Perspective".
