Nurtured Together is a warm, therapist-led pregnancy and postpartum support group created to hold you through one of the most transformative seasons of life. This group offers a safe, welcoming space for mamas who are pregnant, newly postpartum, or navigating early motherhood to slow down, connect, and feel truly understood.

Offerings & Pricing

Weekly Support Group | Wednesday Mornings

10:30–11:30 AM | Littles Welcome

This therapist-led weekly support group offers a nurturing space for pregnant and postpartum mamas to connect, share, and feel supported in real time. Together, we explore the emotional and physical experiences of pregnancy, postpartum, and early motherhood—without judgment or pressure to “have it all together.” Littles are always welcome, so you can arrive exactly as you are and be held in community while caring for your baby. This group emphasizes connection, emotional support, and the reassurance that you are not alone.

Meet the Expert Group | One Wednesday Each Month

6:00–7:00 PM

Our monthly Meet the Expert evenings bring together mamas and trusted local professionals for education, conversation, and community. Each session is co-led by Associate Therapist Shae Thysse and a guest expert—such as a midwife, pelvic floor therapist, nutritionist, doula, or other perinatal specialist—offering practical guidance and space for questions. These gatherings are designed to empower you with knowledge, confidence, and support as you navigate pregnancy and the postpartum journey.
