Introducing the Parent Wellness Group!
We have some BIG news for our community! After over a year as the Postpartum Wellness Group, we have officially changed our name to the Parent Wellness Group.
As we worked through our website build, planning for new programming in 2023, and a deep dive into how we can best help women and families navigating parenthood, the name Postpartum Wellness Group no longer seemed like a good fit. While supporting women in their pregnancy and postpartum journey will continue to be a focus of ours, the primary goal of our business and clinicians is to bring support and resources to the people who need it most in this phase of life. That means we need to tend to ALL parents, not just mothers.
New team member - our first Dad clinician!
With lots of exciting rollouts on the horizon, we are thrilled to announce the addition of our first Dad therapist, Brian Orr, to the team. As a therapist for more than 10 years and a father of a toddler, Brian understands the gap in care for new fathers. We hope that by welcoming Brian to the team, we can serve parents in a more comprehensive way - inviting new or seasoned fathers to speak with a therapist who understands the challenges the modern father faces.
Group Therapy for Moms
We are excited to announce that our next six-week Group Therapy for Moms Series will start on Tuesday, February 7th at 7pm. Group therapy is a wonderful opportunity for mothers in any stage to come together under the guidance of our seasoned clinician and mother to three, Ali Schmitt. To learn more about this program launching on February 7th, visit our therapy page.
Couples Therapy
A healthy connection with your partner is key as you take on the challenges and changes of parenthood. Led by a seasoned couples’ therapist, our couples division will soon be accepting new clients looking for better ways to connect both physically and emotionally. Stay tuned for our new, more extensive couples support coming soon!
Parent Postpartum Wellness Series
Finally, our most exciting announcement is the launch of the Parent Wellness Series. For the first time, we are bringing together a highly passionate and experienced group of providers in the perinatal space to educate and support new parents right when they need it most. Intended for new parents in the “fourth trimester,” you and your partner are invited to six virtual, expert-led sessions that will cover topics from postpartum healing, couples therapy and sex, and will feature breakout sessions for moms, dads and partners to have dedicated time with one of our skilled, mental health clinicians.
This free series (with a suggested donation to one of three perinatal mental health organizations) begins Thursday, February 16th at 7:15pm. Register here!
Thank you for being here with us at Parent Wellness Group! We are excited to continue to evolve our team and the support that we can provide to families.
