Hello
My name is Michelle Trudeau. I am a licensed clinical social worker, certified parent coach and I am completing training for certification through PSI (Postpartum Support International) in Perinatal Mental Health and Mood Disorders. I started my career as a school social worker then became a part of the Main Street Counseling team. While I continued to work with families at MSC I found my passion for specifically helping mothers. I then became a new mother myself!
​
Motherhood can be beautiful and exciting. It can also feel isolating. In a recent study, over 40% of new moms reported experiencing overwhelming feelings like anxiety, stress, and tiredness.
​
From my own experience and clinical background I developed the New Moms Support Group. A space for moms to connect and learn together. My goal with this group is to create more than just a weekly meeting but a community for moms.
New Moms Support Group
April 30th - June 4th | Tuesday's 10 - 11:30am
July 9th - August 13th | Tuesday's 10 - 11:30am
This group is a space for connection, support and advice to help you ease into this amazing, exhausting, & exciting life as a new mom. We will share about our experience as new moms and hear from experts in development, feeding and sleep. All members who attend this group will have access to our MSC moms closed facebook group. This way we can all continue to support each other.
​
In this space we will:
-
Share about our experience as new moms
-
Gain support from & connect with each other
-
Learn relevant information on child health & parenting
-
Decrease our anxiety & increase our self confidence
WHAT PAST GROUP MEMBERS SAY
Emily M.
I truly can’t recommend enough! This group was more than I ever expected — the best part was making new mom friends who are always there to lift you up. If you’re a new mom I promise this is something you absolutely won’t regret.
Kelly C.
The friendships I made from this group are absolutely amazing. Michelle leads a professional yet fun support group. My son is almost 2 and I still got so much out of this group!
Claire C.
It's hard to take time to do anything for yourself as a new mom but this is definitely worth it! I loved it so much & wish we could do it all over again!
