Parenting and caregiving can be deeply meaningful, but also dysregulating at times. This is a gentle, supportive space for parents and caregivers to slow down, reconnect with their bodies, and experience grounding in the presence of others.

 

This group is experiential and supportive, and is not a substitute for individual therapy, crisis care, or medical support.

​​

This group focused on:

• Grounding and nervous system regulation

• Co-regulation and shared presence

• Restorative practices and gentle movement

• Neurodiversity-affirming care

• Building a sense of safety and connection

 

You are invited to create a comfortable, supportive space with:

• Pillows, blankets, bolsters, or cushions

• A yoga mat, kapok mat, couch, or soft surface

• Water or tea

• Comfortable clothing

• Other optional items like an eye pillow, grounding object, journal, or scent 

​

You are invited to participate in whatever way feels safest for you:

• Sharing is always optional and talking will be kept to a minimum

• Camera on or off is your choice

• You may step away, pause, or modify any practice

• You are encouraged to listen to your body throughout

 

To support a sense of safety and respect within the group:

• What is shared in the group stays in the group (confidentiality)

• Please attend from a private, uninterrupted space

• Use headphones where possible

• No recording of sessions

• Speak from your own experience (no fixing or advice-giving)​

 

T​his group is for parents and caregivers seeking:

• Gentle support and grounding

• A pause in their day-to-day demands

• Connection without pressure to share deeply

• Nervous system-informed care in a group setting

• Embodiment

​

This group is designed for gentle nervous system support and is not a good fit if you are currently experiencing:

• Acute trauma responses

• Active suicidal thoughts

• Significant dysregulation requiring immediate and personalized support

 

If you're unsure whether this group is a good fit, you're welcome to reach out and complete the intake form prior to registering. If needed, additional or alternative supports will be recommended.

​

While confidentiality is upheld by the facilitator, it cannot be guaranteed in a group setting. Confidentiality may be waived if:

• There is risk of harm to yourself or others

• There is suspected abuse or neglect

• Records are required by law

​

• You may be asked to confirm your location at the start of sessions

• An emergency contact is required for participation

• This group will be cancelled with fewer than two participants, without charge; determined three days before the group is scheduled for.
