Matrescence Group Therapy Info and Registration

Motherhood changes everything—and not just your daily routine.

The transition into motherhood is often called matrescence, the physical, emotional, relational, and identity shift that occurs when becoming a mother. Much like adolescence, matrescence is a period of growth, change, and adjustment. Yet many women have never heard the term, leaving them feeling confused, isolated, overwhelmed, or wondering why motherhood feels different than they expected.

This 8-week virtual therapy group is designed to provide a supportive space for mothers to explore the challenges and changes that come with this season of life. Together, we will discuss topics such as identity, self-care, relationships, emotional well-being, expectations, and the realities of motherhood.

Group therapy offers something individual therapy cannot: the opportunity to connect with other mothers who understand what you’re experiencing. Through shared experiences, support, and guided discussion, participants often find validation, encouragement, and a sense of community during a season that can otherwise feel lonely.
