Motherhood can be busy, overwhelming, and full of constant demands. Motherhood Unfiltered offers moms a welcoming space to slow down, connect with others, share experiences, and receive support from people who understand the ups and downs of motherhood.
A free kids’ group is also available for children who are not yet in school. The group is led by licensed therapist Megan Clements, giving moms the opportunity to fully participate while their children enjoy a safe and nurturing environment.
Join us for an hour to connect, recharge, and make your well-being a priority.
