Steven J. Miller obtained bachelor’s and master’s degrees in psychology at Northern Michigan University and is currently in the part-time MSW program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He’s been in social work since 2009, working with youth and families. Steven is an advocate for more discussion among social workers and other helping professionals about the impact of infertility on one’s mental health. Steven and his wife struggled with infertility for seven years before being successful using IVF, resulting in now three-year-old twin boys. After his MSW, Steven plans to work in Reproductive Mental Health and continue advocacy for discussion about this topic in the classroom to help better prepare students and clinicians to support those coming to them for support.

Listen to Steven as he discusses with Ellen and Jenn:

• Male representation of infertility

• 19 states and increasing for infertility insurance coverage

• Trying to navigate time off for appointments

• The feeling of trauma when seeing daily reminders of their infertility struggles
