Ivf and Infertility, Our Journey: A True Story Of One Couple's Struggle Against The Odds'
Experiencing infertility is a challenge that can deeply overshadow a person’s life. It affects one in six couples. And yet, it is still a taboo subject.
When Verity and her husband, Paul, found themselves plunged into that uncertain world, and the pain of experiencing miscarriages along the way, they discovered it to be a world that no one discusses. They couldn’t even find books written by anyone who had actually experienced it themselves.
That’s when Verity, calling upon her experience as a journalist and magazine editor, decided to keep a diary of events that unfolded upon their traumatic journey of trying for a baby in the hope that one day, as a book, it would help rid the taboo shroud that surrounds infertility as a subject and help people on their emotional journeys.
If you are experiencing infertility and don’t know which way to turn, then reading this book about one couple’s journey first-hand may be just the support and inspiration that you need.
“I believe that this book has a rich and detailed description of emotional and physical constraints that came with this journey easily described in a natural way without any artificial make-up or masks.”
—Mr Raef Faris, MSc FRCOG
“This book should also be read by all the team involved in care. It will give them an in-depth understanding of the often very rough seas that the couple have to endure. Verity, a big thank you from me for helping other patients!”

Paul Vitz: Psychological Mythbuster
American psychologist, Paul Vitz, was a pioneer critic of the ‘me, me, me’ generation and humanistic psychology which flourished alongside it. He stands out because of the cultural, psychological and spiritual depth of his critique. Mythbusters are rare and Vitz is a mythbuster par excellence, tearing apart several generations of selfism with insight, wisdom and wit. Other critiques came much later. He saw it all at the time.
This book takes the reader on a journey into the life and thought of a rare thinker, a questioner of ideological sacred cows, and one of the most original and gifted psychologists of the past century.
Paul Vitz was a visionary for his time in confronting and mythbusting humanistic psychology amidst ‘a tsunami of humanistic adulation.’ This book gives perceptive insights into Vitz's thought and times. Well worth reading!
– Catherine MacLaurin, Psychologist, Senior Wellbeing Advisor (SWA), Health and Safety Directorate, NSW Department of Education and Training, Australia
The American psychologist, Paul Vitz, has been a remarkably prescient and courageous critic of the humanist psychology movement, headlined by Carl Rogers. In this book, Wanda Skowronska has provided a thorough and convincing account of Vitz’s work. Her book deserves a wide readership.
– Colin Patterson STD, Dean and Permanent Fellow of the former John Paul II Institute, Melbourne, Australia.
In her book, Wanda Skowronska masterfully narrates the philosophical, theological, and historical context of the development of humanistic psychology, especially that of Carl Rogers, through the lens of Paul C. Vitz’s life and publications. This work critiques the influences of contemporary psychology’s humanistic origins of self-fulfilment theories and cultural Marxism and honours the lifelong work of Paul Vitz, who is undoubtedly one of the most significant Catholic psychologists of our times.
