Welcome to Mother's Circle
I’m Meg — a licensed therapist specializing in maternal mental health, and a fellow mom to two little ones. I know firsthand how intense and emotionally heavy early motherhood can feel.
After the birth of my first child, I quietly carried the weight of new motherhood and felt alone. I searched for a support group on the island and couldn’t find one. That’s when I knew I wanted to create the kind of space I needed back then.
Motherhood is beautiful—but it can also feel lonely, overwhelming, and different than you expected. You’re not alone in your thoughts and feelings.
Mother’s Circle was born from that need — a nurturing space where moms can come together, share openly, and know they’re not alone.
When & Where
Tuesdays from 10:30 to 11:30am
Location: Under the white-columned pavilion at Kings Park in Newport, RI

What to Expect
1-hour sessions
Begins with brief grounding practice, then intros + gentle check-in (share only what you're comfortable with)
Open discussion guided by group needs and experiences
Topics may include: expectations of motherhood, emotions, relationship shifts, guilt, shame, identity, anxiety, depression, sleep, coping, self-love, and more
Therapist-facilitated — I’m here to guide and support, but the heart of the group is the connection between the moms who show up
Babies welcome just as they are — feed, rock, bounce, no need to apologize
Who It's For
This group is for moms in the early postpartum period through the first year—whether you’re a first-time mom or growing your family.
If you’re feeling lonely, anxious, emotionally drained, or navigating the identity shifts and relationship changes that often come with new motherhood, you’re not alone. This space is here for you.
Babies Welcome
(Under 6 Months)
We warmly welcome babies under 6 months to attend with their moms. While we aim to provide a calm and grounding environment, there’s no need to worry—your baby is welcome just as they are.
If your baby is older, you’re encouraged to come solo—or reach out. We may have options or a future group better suited for your circumstances.
Join our Circle
Each group is kept small and intimate to foster connection.
