Interview with Alice (Ally) Domar & Elizabeth (Liz) Grill The psychological journey through infertility for a man is a lonely confusing one. Most men recoil due to ignorance or ego, and the ones that try to step in and play active role do so with little support or understanding of how to 'be' with their wife through this difficult time. Well, Ally and Liz have gone to great lengths to try and remedy this situation. They have planted the seed and now it is all of our turn to help 'fertilize' the male mental-emotional side of modern reproduction. ~ Spence Email domar@domarcenter.com lizgrill@yahoo.com Websites ferticalm.com fertistrong.com ALICE DOMAR Professional Profile 1980 BA Colby College, Waterville Maine 1986 MA and Ph.D in Health Psychology, Yeshiva University, New York NY 1987 Massachusetts clinical psychologist license Author or co-author of seven books including Conquering Infertility Co-founder of the new apps FertiCalm and FertiStrong Leading expert on the relationship between stress and infertility Board Member for Resolve: The National Infertility Organization, 2006-2016 Currently Executive Director, Domar Centers for Mind/Body Health Director of Integrative Care at Boston IVF Senior Staff Psychologist, Dept of Ob/Gyn, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Associate Professor of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, part-time, Harvard Medical School ELIZABETH GRILL Professional Profile Director of Psychological Services at the Ronald O.
