Mother Nurture

I created the Mother Nurture program because in my practice as a counsellor and my life as a mother and friend, I have seen too many women silently hurting and heartbroken over the fact they feel so many things they weren't prepared for: resentment, guilt, anger, sadness and grief.
There is also this dangerous misconception that our maternal instinct will kick in and everything will be fine - blissful even. But it's not always, not for everyone and that is absolutely fine.

Mother Nurture gives you a safe space to explore these feelings and offers practical support to manage your way through it.

Who is Mother Nurture for? 

The program is designed for mothers of children aged from 0 - 5 years. However, you will be placed with other people who have babies or children the same age as yours. That way we can tailor the program content to the needs of the group and those needs change as children get older.
We come to motherhood in many different ways, with different experiences. We welcome women from same sex relationships, the LGBTIQ+ community and those who have adopted, fostered or gone through surrogacy.

Is it online or in-person? 

Mother Nurture is an online program for now. We'll have live group sessions using video conferencing.
With COVID regulations changing and uncertainty around masks and vaccination requirements, we've decided it's better for the health and safety of our participants to hold virtual groups.
Your individual session can be help by phone or video.

We have 8 group sessions - one every fortnight and on the 'off weeks' when there is no group then you can have an individual session with me.
