Mothering Ourselves Therapy Group

Because taking care of yourself is taking care of your children.

Sacramento, CA 

When taking care of children reminds you
of the mother you used to have,
or the mother you never had,
Mothering Ourselves can empower the mother you are!

Mothering Ourselves is an ongoing therapy group for moms.

Are you a motherless mother?

Maybe your mother died when you were younger, or your mother was not there for you, emotionally. Maybe, due to illness or geography, your mom is not available now and you feel unsupported. Mothering Ourselves is a nurturing group with an emphasis on self-compassion and self-care that may help you increase your mothering confidence.

Mothering from Scratch?

Now that you have your own children, you may begin to see the care you were missing. If you wonder if you received the skills you need to be a loving mother, worry that you have inherited your parents’ faults, or if your children sometimes awaken the complicated feelings of grief, this group may be for you.

A Quiet Place

Most Mothering Ourselves groups include quiet art and guided meditation. None of these require any skill. The healing aspect is entirely in the process, and the product created is just a gift at the end.

Mothering Ourselves has a supportive atmosphere, where women can relax and allow themselves to be nurtured.

A second Mothering Ourselves group is forming for mothers of young children. Please call now for an interview.
