Birth Processing & Mom Circle
A place for moms to come together and process their experiences of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
A space to connect, share, and process.
In this intimate circle, I invite you to explore the journey of pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period—whether your experience was challenging, unexpected, or simply needs room to be acknowledged.
Together, we create a space of understanding and gentle listening, offering practical tools and the opportunity to release what no longer serves you. Come with your baby or on your own—just as you are.
Here, you’re not alone—join other moms who truly get it.
For Whom is this Circle?
- Birth Processing is for those who feel their experience was traumatic—and for those who can’t quite name what felt off.
- It’s for the quiet grief, the unmet hopes, the shock of how different it was. For births that “went well on paper” but left something aching. For when you were told “a healthy baby is all that matters,” and you felt guilty for not feeling whole.
- Maybe you felt unseen, unheard, or powerless. Maybe no one asked how you experienced your birth.
- Sometimes it wasn’t just the birth. It might be something from pregnancy that still echoes, or the crash of postpartum, the loneliness, the unexpected turns.
- Sometimes, it’s simply needing space to speak your story—without judgment, without fixing. Just as it is.

FAQ
How Does the Circle Work?
First and foremost, this is a moms’ circle—a powerful space to feel connected and understood. Each meeting begins with gathering together over a light breakfast (provided), offering time to chat and settle in.
We then move into a more structured part, where I guide you through exercises to explore different aspects adn layers of your experience, recognize your own resources for healing, and learn practical tools to take home for moments of overwhelm. This part is based on the B.O.T. approach, a widely recognized method in the birth field for birth processing and trauma-informed care. I am fully certified in B.O.T. from basic to advanced training, ensuring a safe and supportive space for your journey.
For whom is this group?
If you’re looking for a supportive space to process aspects of your pregnancy, birth, or postpartum experience, you’re welcome here. Whether you had a challenging birth, a smooth one that still left you with emotions to untangle, or simply feel the need to talk, this group is for you. Maybe certain remarks made in the hospital are still weighing on your mind, or maybe you just want a space where you can say, ‘This was big, and I need to create a space for it and process parts.’
For whom is this group not suitable?
If you feel that now isn’t the right time to explore these topics, or if listening to others’ experiences would be overwhelming, you might want to wait for a future group or consider private sessions instead.
Is this only for women who experienced traumatic births?
Not at all. You don’t have to define your experience as ‘traumatic’ to benefit from taking time to process it. Every birth story is layered, and this space is about honoring your unique journey—whatever it looked like.
If you’ve read this far, there’s probably something about your experience that you feel drawn to explore. Trust that instinct.
Do I have to share my whole story?
No. There will be opportunities to share parts od your story, but there’s no expectation to tell your entire birth story or evne share anything. Instead, we focus on specific aspects, giving you space to work through what feels most relevant to you. Discovery, not storytelling, is at the heart of this process.
“Can I bring my baby?” “It’s my babies nap time…” “My baby pulls himself up on shelves” “How should that work with bringing the baby?”
We’re all moms—we understand that babies have their own rhythms. This circle is designed with flexibility in mind. There’s a dedicated space where you can change diapers, lay your baby down on a floor mattress, or park the stroller if they’re sleeping. The room is baby-safe, with securely anchored shelves and toys to keep little ones entertained.
If you’d prefer to focus entirely on yourself during this time, you’re welcome to come without your baby. And of course, if your baby is already in gan, you’re just as welcome to join.
How can I sign up?
Simply click here, register, and pay the participation fee. I will send you a questionnaire and open a WhatsApp group about two weeks before the start of the circle.
Why a group and how big is the group?
A group setting offers many benefits: it breaks isolation, fosters connection, and allows shared reflections to open new perspectives. It’s also a more affordable option than private sessions. The group will have 4–7 participants, small enough for meaningful discussion yet large enough to create a supportive atmosphere. If you want additional one-on-one work, you can always book a private session.
Who is organizing this group?
Where are the meetings?
On Adam Street. Several buses go here and free parking on the street right next to the house is available.
