Description

Hey San Diego, our in person Self-Care support groups are back! *SPACE IS LIMITED* Motherhood can already be such an isolating time for some and it's our priority to continue encouraging community care during these uncertain times. We dedicate a whole group to self-care because it’s the one thing we mamas need most. Mothering is often all about caring for others, this requires you to be emotionally, physically, and mentally available. Which is why you need time to recover. Self-care is not selfish. Taking time for yourself, to nourish and care for your mind, body & soul, is the best thing you can do for yourself & your family. The focus of our wellness support group is encouraging real and sustainable self-care practices to support the many roles we experience. We offer a warm and inviting space to share stories where our group leader provides immediate emotional support to navigate real motherhood experiences. Our support group is semi-structured, meaning we present weekly topics that address motherhood experiences while also holding space for the personal needs of individuals and group members. Our hope is that each participant will begin and end a group series with each other encouraging and fostering mama relationships. Weekly topics address experiences that can be influenced by popular culture, society, technology, partner relationships, careers, baby/child development, and parenting. Our groups are led by psychotherapists who also identify as mothers. Where to meet: We will be meeting at the two picnic tables behind the playground which is located on the west side of the park. Please be aware that there is street parking on Adams Ave. and Carmelina Dr. FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE VISIT www.wellmamascounseling.com FOLLOW OUR INSTAGRAM PAGE @WellMamas.Counseling *** Disclaimer*** Participation is meant to be an educational resource and not serve as a substitute for seeking help from a mental health professional in your area.
