Sandra McNicol, Childless.Life
My name is Sandra McNicol and I am permanently childless, not by choice too. I, therefore, have first-hand experience of the multi-layered challenges of being childless. While we are all unique and have very personal stories, I empathize with how hard our journey is and offer you safe and non-judgmental support from a lived (and in progress) experience.
As a coach and grief therapist, I offer empathetic and grief-aware sessions to women from across the globe, who are childless not by choice. I provide compassionate support and inspiration to help navigate the unique challenges we face as we move forward in our unexpected lives without children.
Testimonials
I tried so many different types of support groups hoping to find some comfort in my grief, but I never felt that I quite fitted. Then, last year I found the group with Sandra. It is hard to put into words the incredible impact this has had on my life. I have felt so safe in this wonderful group. I have met such compassionate and loving women who have nurtured my interest in life again. Through emotional conversations and gentle quiet moments I have found the way to feel safe to feel my emotions again. Thank you to Sandra and my beautiful horseshoe friends. It feels so wonderful to have found a place where I belong. Nicky, UK
When I found Sandra, it was 20 years after I learned I would be childless due to infertility. I remember before I left the infertility doctor's office that day I asked if he knew any therapists to help me deal with this shocking reality. Unfortunately, there weren't many around at that time. So - fast forward to 2024 and my childlessness grief was old, stuck inside me, and had became a heavy part of what I carried around every day. But working with Sandra, even with this ancient solidified grief, allowed me to finally acknowledge and process all the pain. She held space for all of it to come through in whatever way it wanted to in the moment: angry, tender, desperate, deeply sorrowful. There is nothing that compares with the healing that comes from working with someone like Sandra who knows herself what the pain of childlessness is. Our sessions were like good medicine every time. She is a loving and compassionate witness to the pain; I always felt safe with her. The gentle guidance she provided through the grieving process was exactly what I needed. Terri, USA
Joining Sandra’s group has been the biggest support factor in all of my CNBC journey. It’s really helpful and healing to be each other’s witness on this heartbreaking but also heart & life rebuilding journey. If you have any doubts, be assured that this is one of the best moves you can make. Anette, The Netherlands
