LCRH Reads is the LCRH Book Club. For Autumn 2026 we have two books that we are reading: The Radically Honest Guide to Fertility Treatment: How to Navigate the Process and Take Back Control by Dr Louise Goddard Crawley and Jules McDonald, and How to Think Like a Poet by Dai George.

About the books:

The Radically Honest Guide to Fertility Treatment: How to Navigate the Process and Take Back Control draws on the authors decades of experience in reproductive health, and years of conversations with patients, Dr Louise Goddard-Crawley and Jules McDonald cut through the confusion, the jargon and the silence, to give you their full honest picture of what’s going on.
In How to Think Like a Poet poet and writer Dai George provides an entertaining introduction to the great works of poetry, and a welcoming guide to how we can read them. Through short, biographical portraits, George asks: How did the greatest poets in history make the world anew? And what can we learn from the magic, wisdom and humour of their poetry?

If you are interested in joining LCRH Reads, this is how it works: Between the months of October 1st and December 31st, 2026 we will be reading ‘The Radical Guide to Fertility Treatment’ by Dr Louise Goddard Crawley and Jules McDonald, as well as ‘How to Think Like a Poet’ by Dai George. Reading is relaxed and self paced. We will be getting together for in-person events, which will be announced in the Living Room, (our place for community and connection. LCRH.co.uk/livingroom ). In person get togethers bring a chance to connect offline and together with our team for those interested in both the books and reproductive health.

Bloomsbury, publishers of both titles, are kindly providing LCRH patients with a 30% discount when they purchase either book at Bloomsbury.com before November 30th, 2026 using the special code: LCRH30

Meet the Counsellors at LCRH.

Natasha:

“As adults who are used to running our lives successfully, we understandably struggle with the feelings encountering the unknown brings up for us. The process of trying to conceive is steeped in the unknown and so naturally challenges everyone in unique ways and at different times. It’s important to me that fertility counselling is flexible and adaptable to the needs of each individual. For most, fertility counselling is not about delving deep into our psyche or pulling up historic issues, it’s about allowing a space to support how you are thinking and feeling about what is happening for you now, to try to help minimise the impact on the rest of your life.” Natasha.

Natasha is a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist and Supervisor (Foundation for Psychotherapy and Counselling, British Psychotherapy Council, Institute of Group Analysis, British Association for Psychoanalytic and Psychodynamic Supervision, British Infertility Counselling Association), and has over 15 years of counselling experience.

Earlier this month, The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) announced a plan to support its players and employees in egg freezing and assisted fertility treatments. While this news is welcomed by many, those concerned will still be faced with the question of ‘when?’

As anyone who has experienced egg freezing will know, the process is not as simple as a couple of swift clinic appointments, and the reality for many of the professional athletes within our own patient family is that the process timeline alone, which includes scans, preparative medications, egg collections, and recovery, can be incredibly difficult to schedule when your profession requires that every week in training matters.

Dr Chapman is a longtime advocate of education in reproductive health for young female athletes, believing that knowledge and planning is power.

Dr Chapman’s passion is in part inspired by her own journey as a youth professional ballet dancer and the impact that rigorous training had on her own reproductive health. You can find Dr Chapman’s story on our website in the LCRH Living Room (LCRH.co.uk/livingroom) our place for shared support and connection.

It is PMOS Awareness Month.

In May this year, it was agreed by a group of leading global medical, research and patient advocate groups to rename PCOS (Polycystic O***y Syndrome) as PMOS (Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome).

Why? The polycystic term has always been a misinterpretation of the situation. These are actually tiny, fluid-filled sacs (usually 2 to 9 mm in diameter) that naturally house immature eggs inside the ovaries. These are not painful nor pathological and do not need surgical intervention. They are also only part of a larger picture.

This month is PMOS Awareness month, a time for shared awareness and education of the condition and symptoms of PMOS, which can impact fertility, cause irregular or infrequent periods, as well as mood changes, weight gain acne, hair growth, pain and fatigue.

If you would like to book a private consultation to talk about your own situation, our team is here to help.

You’ll find booking details via the link in our instagram bio, and can also reach out via our website: LCRH.co.uk

Counselling at LCRH

Coral

Coral is a qualified counsellor working with adults in private practice. She trained as a Person-Centred counsellor and has gone on to integrate other types of counselling into her practice to best meet the needs of those she works with. She offers a warm, thoughtful and confidential space where clients can speak openly about the challenges they are facing.

Her approach is grounded in empathy, curiosity and careful listening, allowing individuals the time and space to explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace. She believes that feeling genuinely heard and understood can be deeply supportive, and aims to provide a space where clients can begin to make sense of what they are going through.

Before qualifying as a counsellor, Coral worked as a media specialist in advertising and publishing, which gave her valuable insight into the pressures and demands of corporate life. Volunteering with charities supporting women and young adults, along with a personal interest in fertility, inspired her decision to retrain.
