“New Moms Supporting Each Other” is a therapeutic, professionally guided group for mothers with their babies (ages 0 to 12 months).

We will share the excitement of motherhood and address the challenges of parenting together.

In bi-monthly meetings I will facilitate discussions that will address postpartum issues in a safe, non-judgmental environment.  

By meeting and opening up to other moms, you will be able to extend your support network and so strengthen your emotional well-being. 

During the group meetings you can:

* Connect with and support other new moms on the same journey

* Identify the warning signs of baby blues & post-partum depression

* Learn coping techniques to improve your mood

* Learn strategies to deal with the challenges that parenting brings 

* Learn how to balance your needs with the family’s needs.

Many topics are addressed including :

  • Sleep
  • Isolation
  • Self image

  • Mom and Baby emotional wellness
  • Childcare issues
  • Body image issues
  • Family life
  • Functioning with limited personal time
  • Deciding to stay at home or work outside the home
