PPD & ME: A group for new parents struggling with Postpartum depression (PPD)
Becoming a new parent can be difficult. Up to 15% of new parents can experience postpartum depression. PPD can begin during pregnancy, or right after birth anytime within the first year. PPD can cause feelings of intense sadness, despair, a loss of interest or pleasure in activities one used to enjoy, worried or anxious thoughts, feelings of guilt or worthlessness, fears of being a bad parent, and more. If you are a new parent experiencing any of these symptoms, this group can help improve your understanding of postpartum depression, and develop skills and techniques to help reduce symptoms and work to improving your current emotional state.
This is a group that will have specific date and time. Have a look out for it under the programs page!- – will not be running until spring/Summer 2024

Being a kid can be hard! Childhood can be full of many changes and new challenges, and it can be difficult for kids to have the tools to manage stressors during this time. Sometimes, unhealthy ways of coping can develop and anxiety can arise. This group was developed to help youth ages 7-12 to recognize their personal stressors and learn and practice healthy ways of coping and managing stress and anxiety!
