Maternity Leave Resources and Referral Options
Hey there!
Thanks for finding your way here.
I am taking maternity leave from December 15th 2023 and plan to return June/July 2024
(pending our transition as a family).
If you need immediate or crisis support, please click here for crisis and more immediate support services.
For alternate 1:1 therapy support in my absence, please see options below.
If you aren't already you may like to sign up to my mailing list which is where I will be providing updates upon my return.
You can sign up via the link here (and yes, you will also receive a short meditation recording to keep when you do so).
If you are an existing client, I will also be in contact individually via email as I slowly transition back to work.
In the meantime, please be aware of the ongoing and on demand supports
I have on my website and social media accounts to continue to support you in my physical absence including;
- On Demand workshops and Trauma Sensitive Yoga classes

- Remembrance membership
(library of Trauma Sensitive Yoga and meditation spaces to explore in your own space and time)

Regarding 1:1 Psychology support
please see below potential therapists you may like to reach out to before my return.
