It’s an honour to meet you. My work is with women who had hoped to be mothers and it didn't happen. I’m sorry for the difficult circumstances and heartbreak that may have led you here. My hope is you can experience the love, care and support you need to heal your heart and live well. This is offered, with the deep, heart-felt knowing, that comes from being an involuntarily childless woman too. My personal story includes deeply desiring motherhood, 10 years trying to conceive (including IVF), leaving the clinic and struggling to find appropriate support. It was devastating, and I knew there must be other women just like me.
After many healing years, I gathered up 35 years of experience as a counsellor, group worker, training & education facilitator, and founded the Empty Cradle, a healing and support service for women transitioning to life without motherhood. We offer online counselling; group workshops and programs; resources; and the power of a loving community.
These tender, practical and evidence-based services are designed to help you heal your heart, feel confident & worthy, nurture connection, explore meaning and purpose, navigate the identity reconstruction and existential life transition from potential mother to being at peace & thriving as a childless (not-by-choice) woman. You & your story are welcome here.
