Pay-What-You-Can Group Therapy

Perinatal Mental Health Support Group

PWO provides group therapy support for people experiencing a Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorder (PMAD) or symptoms of a PMAD. Our virtual Pregnancy Mental Health Therapy group begins May 31st. This 6-week group will run on Wednesdays at 12pm for 90 minutes. Group is co-facilitated by Kate Abrams, RP (Qualifying) and Norah Lynn Paddock, MSW student.

The focus of the group is to provide therapeutic support to pregnant people, support peers with similar challenges, and learn new skills for coping with the transition to parenthood and symptoms of pregnancy and postpartum mood and anxiety disorders. This group is for anyone who is currently pregnant and due after the group ends. The cost for group is on a pay-what-you-can scale of $0-$20 per group session. You can send payment by e-transfer to info@perinatalwellbeing.ca.

Spots are limited, so if you are interested, please register by emailing Norah Lynn at nlpaddock@proton.me.

Please feel free to come as you are, in your sweats, with a cup of tea or however you like! Babies are very welcome to attend and please do not hesitate to attend to whatever you need to during group time.
