SUMMARY:Birth Trauma Support for Black\, Indigenous\, People of Color (BIPOC) Birthers
DESCRIPTION:4th Wednesdays at 7:30PM (EST)/4:30PM (PST) \nLed by trained peer facilitators\, this group is for any Black\, Indigenous\, Person of Color (BIPOC) who has experienced trauma (mental and/or physical) during childbirth. Did you feel unsupported during childbirth? Did you feel unheard or felt a loss of control? Have you been grieving your birth experience? You deserve support. Birth trauma is based on your perception of the experience\, and no formal diagnosis is needed to join this group. Some common symptoms\, but not all\, that can occur after birth trauma are upsetting memories\, avoiding talking about the event\, and having negative thoughts/feelings about the event. BIPOC birthers can also experience trauma related to racism\, discrimination\, oppression\, and specific cultural views and beliefs. This group is a place to discuss these experiences with other BIPOC birthers and facilitators. You can be at any point post-delivery\, from 1-week to many years. This group is specifically focused on birth trauma and connecting with others\, so you can know that you are not alone\, and you are not to blame. While your story has so much value\, in this space we will not explore birth story details as they could be triggering to others. We encourage you to reach out to a licensed healthcare provider to process your birth story.  In this group\, we will discuss the effects of trauma\, our emotions\, and coping skills. \nThis group is not for: \n\npartners or non-birthing parents\nthose who experienced a pregnancy or infant loss (please join one of our loss groups for support)

SUMMARY:Strong As A Mother: Finding strength and support through pregnancy and infant loss
DESCRIPTION:The death of a child is not something any mother should have to endure.

Led by Elizabeth Stout. \n

SUMMARY:Pregnancy and Postpartum Psychosis Support for Survivors (Moms and Birthing People)
DESCRIPTION:Monday’s at 4:30 PM PT/ 7:30 PM ET\n\n\nWe invite those who are no longer in active psychosis and in recovery to join for support\, so that you can experience connection and support from other Pregnancy and Postpartum Psychosis (PPP) Survivors. This group is intended for those who are in recovery (no longer experiencing psychosis). Because PPP occurs less often than other perinatal mood disorders\, survivors can go their whole lives without meeting another PPP survivor. In response\, PSI has created an online peer-to-peer support group for PPP survivors. Like so many mental health emergencies\, symptoms and individuals vary greatly\, but PPP is generally marked by a loss of touch with reality. This can include symptoms such as mania\, hallucinations\, paranoia\, and/or delusions. If you are looking for more information on PPP\, please visit this webpage.  Whether your PPP experience was relatively recent or years ago\, you are welcome to attend our free\, online peer-to-peer support group. Our online groups are here to help you connect with other parents\, talk about your experience\, and learn about helpful tools and resources. If you are still experiencing psychosis or a mental health emergency\, we encourage you to reach out to 988.

SUMMARY:Black Moms Connect
DESCRIPTION:Every Tuesday 7:30pm ET/4:30pm PT\n \nThis group is for anyone pregnant or postpartum (up to two years) and identifies as Black or African-American.

Whether you are going through stress\, adjustment to parenting\, baby blues\, pregnancy\, or postpartum depression/anxiety\, our groups are here for you. You are not alone\, and we are here to help. We do not allow group observation by students or professionals. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

SUMMARY:Support for Parents of High Needs Babies
DESCRIPTION:4th Tuesday of the Month 12:30PM EST/ 9:30AM PST \nLed by trained peer facilitators\, this group is for parents of “high need” newborns to 12-month-old babies. All babies have needs and depend on their caregivers\, yet some babies have more needs than others. “High needs baby” is not a medical term or diagnosis\, but it is a term used to describe babies with some of these characteristics: constant crying (for several hours in a row)\, difficult to soothe\, and easily overstimulated. A highly sensitive or high-needs baby might not sleep without being held\, might cry for three hours every evening\, or might get restless and frustrated when transitioning from one environment to another. We know that parents of “colicky” or high-needs babies can feel isolated\, exhausted\, and overwhelmed. You are not alone\, and we are here to help.  Crying babies are welcome too! \nIf you are looking for a group for parenting a medically fragile baby or child\, please check out our group specifically for those parents. \n\n\nRegister for a Support Group Here
