A group for processing birth experiences

This group is a supportive space for anyone who has been through a birth that was unexpected or traumatic. Heal, reflect, and connect with others who have had similar experiences. You’ll be able to:

  • Share your story and process emotions in a safe, understanding space.

  • Learn mindfulness tools to support your healing journey.

  • Engage with art invitations to grieve and find peace.

This group is for you if you are:

  • Processing the emotional and physical aftermath of childbirth.

  • Feeling unsettled, overwhelmed, or isolated after your birth experience.

  • Wanting to reflect on your birth story in a supportive, empowering environment.

  • Healing from a traumatic birth experience (e.g., medical complications, unexpected interventions, or feelings of powerlessness).

  • Interested in gaining insight, coping strategies, and emotional tools to move forward.


Leah Chalofsky

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #83622) with a Perinatal Mental Health Certification. I graduated with a Masters Degree in 2008 and have been in private practice since 2015. I provide therapy in San Francisco and online throughout California. My style is warm and supportive, with the intention for clients to feel heard. I also challenge clients to use their strengths to heal and grow.​

My approach is client-centered and explores how childhood experiences have influenced your present life. Elements of mindfulness-based methods (such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and non-verbal approaches (such as art and guided imagery) are integrated into the sessions.  The relationship between the therapist and client offers opportunities for healing and transformation.
