Coping with Covid - POSTPARTUM Support Group

This ONLINE support group will help postpartum women in navigating the emotional challenges and impact that COVID19 is having on them postpartum.

This group will provide women with support and space to process their emotions and learn how to cope with anxiety. It will also provide women with practical and therapeutic strategies to help manage the transition to motherhood amidst this global pandemic. This is your opportunity to meet new moms in a supportive environment. 

The group is closed, meaning it will be the same women each week. It will be six weeks in length and will be 75 mins (with time for 90 minutes if we need longer). The group will begin May 13 and will go each Wednesday morning until June 17, 2020. Given the nature of the group there will be no make up sessions for missed dates. 

The needs of the group will be assessed and relevant topics will be discussed each week. Topics may include:   

- You can’t pour from an empty cup: Self care & sleep hygiene

- Intrusive thoughts + anxiety

- Postpartum Rage

- Managing the loneliness of motherhood: Isolation / build your village

- Birth story processing

- Myths of motherhood

- Coping tools for postpartum

- Anxiety 101: what is anxiety, anxiety management tools

- Boundary Setting & Relationships

Group cost is $39/session (total $234 for 8 hours of therapy)! Payment will be collected to reserve your spot in the group!

The group will require 5 participants minimum to proceed and will be capped at 12 people to ensure everyone has adequate time each session to participate.
