Surrogacy psychological assessment

A formal surrogacy psychological assessment is often required as part of the legal and clinical process. This assessment ensures that all parties have considered the emotional, relational and practical implications of surrogacy.

Our surrogacy assessment process includes individual consultations, exploration of motivations and expectations, and discussion of potential challenges. The aim is to ensure informed decision-making and emotional readiness.
