"Becoming a mother leaves no woman as it found her. It unravels her and rebuilds her. It cracks her open, takes her to her edges. It's both beautiful and brutal, often at the same time."

-- Nikki McCahon

Perinatal Support Group

We are committed to supporting women in the reproductive stages of their lives. This group supports women as they welcome a new child into their family. This group will be most helpful for those in the later stages of pregnancy (or surrogacy for intended parents), or those who have recently met their baby whether through birth, surrogacy or adoption.

This is a virtual 6-week educational support group. Each week we will be discussing different topics aimed at promoting whole-body wellness and recovery during the perinatal (i.e., around the time of birth) phase.

Topics include:

Matrescence -- the birth of a mother
Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders and treatment options
Healing and recovery postpartum
Self-care and coping tools
The Fourth Trimester and mindful attachment with baby
Transitioning from partners to parents

The next group begins on April 3, 2024 and will occur on Wednesdays from 4:30 pm to 6 pm. Groups will be held via Google Classroom and Google Meet. Additional support groups will be available following this date. Contact us to inquire about availability.

We accept Medi-Cal, TRICARE, Halcyon, and Blue Shield. Please note, not all healthcare plans will cover group therapy. Please contact us for support in verifying coverage.

Self-pay for group therapy is $45 per session, or you can pay for the full course up front for $240 ($30 savings!).
