Marin Mother’s Circles

safe space to share, process and feel supported through the arc of your motherhood

  • "Kate is a gifted listener — she makes you feel seen, heard, and validated in a way that’s rare and deeply comforting. The results is that this circle has quickly become a space of healing, reflection, and profound support."

    Amy

  • "Kate holds space for mother’s in all walks of the motherhood journey with an authenticity and grace that puts you at ease and helps you to feel welcome and supported as you navigate the complex layers of matrescence. Gathering in circle with other mothers has helped me to feel less isolated on this journey and to hold more compassion for myself as a step-mother and mother-to-be."

    Rachel

  • "Kate's mother's circle was a beautiful space of community and meaningful support. I couldn't recommend them more highly to other women navigating their new role as mothers.

I’m Kate

I’m a mother of two & a Matrescence Doula

I created my motherhood support practice after experiencing two entirely different matrescence experiences: one that broke me open, lit me up, and aligned me with my purpose, and another that broke me down and showed me the depths that matrescence can carry you to. Whatever the journey to and through motherhood brings your way, I offer support, perspective, deep listening, and space-holding for the rite of passage and life transition that is becoming a mother (of one, of two, of more).

MY PHILOSOPHY & BACKGROUND

My guidance and space holding centers on you and your truth, no matter what motherhood looks like for you or how you come to it. I meet you where you are, supporting you through what feels best to you in mothering, honoring that each of our motherhood journeys and experiences is entirely our own. My aim is to lend you my stability, care, and deep empathy, and respect for the matrescence process so that you can find your center, your truth, your highest self, and your way forward.

I bring learnings from a range of coursework, life experiences, self work, and support groups, including wisdom from my own matrescence, studies with Seasons of Matrescence, Birth Story Medicine, personal experiences in traumatic birth and postpartum suffering, as well as the feminine experience I’ve witnessed in others through mother’s groups, women’s circles, and friendships.
