Free to Be Mindful  from Bump to Birth:
Therapy Group for Expecting & New Moms

As an expectant or new mom, you should be promised the reassurance and support you need during this transformative journey, ensuring your well-being and confidence every step of the way.

But if you’re like most moms, you have the world on your shoulders and you’re feeling stressed and overwhelmed with all there is to do, that you end up placing yourself in last place… yet again.

Does any of this sound familiar?

  • As a first-time mom, you're overwhelmed by the unknowns of motherhood and crave guidance and support to navigate this uncharted territory with confidence and clarity.

 

  • ​Balancing the demands of young children at home while expecting another baby leaves you feeling stretched thin and anxious, yearning for strategies to maintain your mental and emotional well-being amidst the chaos and self-expectations.

 

  • Having had a child ages ago, you're grappling with the vast changes in parenting practices and societal expectations, longing to embrace new insights and approaches that align with your growth mindset.

 

  • Being one to six months postpartum, you're struggling to reconnect with your sense of self amid the demands of motherhood, seeking a supportive community to help you rediscover your identity and find balance in this transformative journey.

From Bump to Birth

After years of prioritizing work over family and feeling disconnected from the most precious moments of my first pregnancy and my child's early years, I was devastated by the news that my family might not grow.

 

I went from years of feeling sadness, anger and resentment to learning how to live mindfully, cherishing every moment.  Now, miraculously blessed with another pregnancy, I am dedicated to supporting expecting and new moms on their journeys, empowering them to navigate motherhood with confidence and fulfillment.

While seeking support from family and friends can be comforting, it may also come with the risk of biased advice or judgment, which could hinder rather than help your progress. Take a moment to reflect on how this may affect your relationship with your child and the memories you hope to cherish together.

Preparing for a baby can be costly. Think how much your overall wellbeing costs you. If I can help guide you in reclaiming a sense of peace and balance during your pregnancy journey, you have the power to rediscover harmony and fulfillment in your life while being a more present mom.
