For women affected by maternal estrangement
In response to participant feedback, we now hold two different spaces for women navigating estrangement and distance from their mothers, both facilitated by Helen Catterall, a (MBACP) qualified Person-Centred Counsellor with a background in adult education and training. You can read more about Helen below.
What we offer
We understand everyone is at a different stage in their journey, which is why we alternate on a bi-monthly basis between:
* A professionally facilitated free workshop for those navigating estrangement from a mother. This session offers a blend between learning and personal and small group reflection
* A peer-to-peer free drop-in to meet others and share your thoughts, emotions and stories through small-group conversations and discussions
Note
You can attend one or both of our different sessions. There are no restrictions or rules on this. However, the workshop’s format is repeated, so if you are a returning attendee, please be aware that the content and structure of the workshop will be the same.
Estrangement drop-in
Our bi-monthly free drop-in offers a safe space, connection, support, and encouragement from other women who get it and are walking similar paths to you.
This drop-in is also facilitated by Helen, but the focus is much more on peer support, small-group discussions, and meeting others who understand.
The drop-in will be held on the last Wednesday of every other month from 7-8pm UK time.
You can sign up for the next drop-in below.
