For many years she was a Resolve group leader. Blitzer has advanced training in couples therapy, hypnosis and interactive imagery. Her work with infertility has been noted in the Washington Post, preconception.com, inciid.com , and conceiveonline. Her recent book, The Infertility Workbook, A Mind-Body Program to Enhance Fertility, Reduce Stress, and Maintain Emotional Balance is an integration of decades of work presented in a user friendly format that you can use on your own to explore your own personal issues as they relate to fertility, as well as to gain fertility-related information and to learn mind-body skills. In order to help women working through the exercises in The Infertility Workbook get the most possible benefit from the exercises in the book, she has designed a coaching program to offer individual support. Blitzer is available by phone and skype as well as in person in the D.C. metro area.
