About Nurtured Fertility

Where Healing, Hope and Hypnotherapy Meet

Nurtured Fertility was born from lived experience, compassion, and a deep understanding of the emotional journey fertility struggles can bring.

After the birth of my daughter, my husband and I faced years of heartbreak, unanswered questions, NHS appointments, and difficult diagnoses including endometriosis and being told there would be “no more babies.”

Working as a Health Visitor while surrounded by new life every day brought its own layer of grief, guilt, and emotional exhaustion. Like many women, I felt lost somewhere between hope and heartbreak.

Discovering hypnotherapy changed everything — not because it guaranteed pregnancy, but because it helped me heal.

It gave me space to release shame, calm the constant emotional tension, and reconnect with myself through compassion and kindness. That journey became the inspiration behind the work I do today.

You deserve to feel
safe, heard,
understood,
and never alone
on this journey.

More About Catherine

Catherine York - Nurtured Fertility

I am a wife, a mum and a grandma, and honestly, those roles are at the heart of everything I do and everything I care about. Family time is precious to me, and I do not take a single moment of it for granted.

You will often find me out walking with our three dogs, whatever the weather. Although I will confess, I am happiest when it is blustery and autumnal, striding along an English beach with the wind in my face. I will take the countryside over the city any day.

At home, I love to read, and there is nothing quite like putting on my favourite music and singing at the top of my voice whilst dancing around. Pure joy in its simplest form. And if I am settling in for an evening, there is a good chance there is a detective programme on the television.

I share all of this because I want you to know that I am a real person, with a real life and a real understanding of how deeply we feel the things that matter most to us.

When you come to me for support, you are not just a client — you are someone I genuinely care about. I bring warmth, honesty and whole-hearted commitment to every person I work with, and it would be my honour to walk alongside you on your journey.

Working with Catherine has completely changed how I feel about myself and my fertility. We had been trying to conceive for just over two years and I was feeling desperate, a total failure and as if we would never be able to have our own baby.

Catherine gave me time to slow down my thinking, calm my emotions and reduce my stress. The hypnotherapy sessions helped me understand experiences that may have been delaying pregnancy, while the coaching helped me regain control of my thoughts and beliefs.

I've only just finished working with Catherine but I already believe I am becoming a mother soon.

We had been trying to conceive for around eighteen months when I found Catherine. My stress was affecting every part of my life including work, friendships and family.

Catherine helped me step back, calm my emotions and reduce the pressure I was placing on myself. I am enjoying life again and my husband and I are happier while continuing our fertility journey together.

I spent years trying to overcome anxiety and agoraphobia with little success. After my first session with Catherine I felt as though a huge weight had been lifted.

She listened carefully, supported me throughout every session and helped me achieve things I never believed possible in only a matter of weeks.

Thank you, thank you! I never imagined I would willingly go to the dentist, but I made my own appointment, arrived early, had my check-up and even booked my hygienist appointment for next week.

The strange thing is that I'm actually looking forward to going. I can't thank you enough, Catherine.

Catherine is an absolute gem for hypnotherapy!

Working with Catherine was a great experience. Our sessions were always punctual, and she provided clear and concise guidance throughout.

Hypnotherapy with Catherine has been a game changer for me. For years, I grappled with something I thought I'd never overcome. I had tried various therapies in the past, but nothing seemed to work. I wasn't sure hypnotherapy would be effective, but I'm so glad I gave it a chance.

Catherine exceeded all of my expectations. She not only helped me overcome my main challenge but also supported me with other unexpected areas of my life.

The positive impact has been profound, affecting both me and my family. I cannot thank Catherine enough for her hard work and dedication throughout this incredible journey.
