✦ About Maya
A little more about me
Before joining LAURA, I worked on a hospital perinatal mental health team, supporting parents through pregnancy, birth, loss and the early months at home.
I know how isolating this season can feel, even when you are surrounded by people. Our sessions are a place to set down the pressure to be fine, and to be cared for while you care for others.
Babies are always welcome in online and in-person sessions.
