Healing the Mother Wound
Boundaries Edition
-
Have you ever found yourself thinking, "I tried to set boundaries with mymom, but it didn't work!"
-
Do you find yourself dreading the conversation that inevitably comes up with your mom about what the holidays are going to look like this year?
-
Do you wish you could have more space or distance from your mom, but find it difficult to say so or to enforce?
A mother plays a critical role in her daughter’s life.
Most mothers want to love their daughters well, yet so many young women experience hurtful interactions or words spoken by their mothers that stay with them for the rest of their lives.
Peace is possible. Your relationship with your mom can be different. We'll teach you how.

Finding Peace when the Mother You Long for Is Not the Mother You Have
Did you feel wanted by your mother, and seen and truly known for who you are--and didn't receive that? Was she controlling? Did you feel you weren't allowed to be your own person? Or maybe your mother was fragile, and you felt like you needed to take care of her. Do you, even now, find yourself caught in a people-pleasing cycle with your mother?
Mother wounds are painful, but you don't have to stay in that pain. You can learn to grieve and heal from the painful parts of your story with your mother. With our Mother Wound group class, you can be empowered, along with a small group of other women who are walking through similar experiences, to have a healthier relationship with your mother and more confidence in advocating for yourself in that relationship.
Peace is possible. Your relationship with your mom can be different. We’ll teach you how.

The Group counseling process:
Group therapy offers a unique sanctuary for women seeking support, perspective, and encouragement from women who are going through similar experiences. By creating a shared space of understanding and camaraderie, the therapeutic space provides an avenue for women to validate experiences and emotions, learn from the collective contexts of the group, and receive affirmation and equipping in their feelings. Additionally, group therapy provides essential insights into the intricacies of trauma, equipping them with tools to better support one another while also emphasizing the importance of self-care. In a collective setting, group members can collaboratively explore strategies for setting boundaries, enhancing communication, and creating a more supportive future, all while benefiting from the mutual support and understanding that comes from shared journeys.
​
Each group therapy session is 90 minutes long. The group will be 10 weeks long and every member will be screened to support group dynamics and keep it as useful an experience possible for all participants. It's not a process that is over immediately, but sharing your experience and hearing the journeys of other women can be empowering and bring hope and stability to your relationships.
