The Matrescence Room

A Support Hub for Mothers in the Thick of Becoming

Guided by Therapists | Rooted in Honesty, Care & Connection

If you’ve never heard the term “Matrescence” before.

Matrescence is the word for the profound shift that happens when you become a mother including emotionally, physically, and socially. Similar to “adolescence”, but instead of growing into adulthood, you're growing into motherhood.

It’s messy, beautiful, disorienting, and real—and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

You love your baby. You’re grateful.

And still…you might feel overwhelmed, angry, lost, numb, or like you’ve disappeared into someone else.

You’re not broken. You’re not alone. You’re becoming.

The Matrescence Room is a prenatal and postpartum support hub for women who want a space to be honest, messy, thoughtful—and real. 


Motherhood Is Beautiful—and It’s Also Brutal Sometimes.

What’s Inside the “Room”?

  • Biweekly virtual support groups led by licensed therapists 

  • A private, non-judgmental community of other mothers navigating identity shifts, emotional volatility, and “taboo” feelings

  •  Space to name the hard stuff: grief, rage, ambivalence, loneliness

  • Gentle weekly prompts to reflect and reconnect with yourself

  •  A therapist-moderated discussion board to connect between sessions

  • Monthly guest workshops on mental health, relationships, and more

  • Therapist curated Resource Library

  • Optional 1:1 therapy add-on with a mental health therapist

Our facilitators at Road to Change Counseling specialize in maternal wellness and the psychology of identity during major life transitions. We understand you deserve a space that’s not curated for social media, not driven by “should,” and not centered solely around your baby.

Led by Therapists Who Truly See You

    • First time mom’s in the pregnancy, postpartum, or early parenting stage

    • New mom’s feeling overwhelmed and invisible

    • New mothers who feel emotionally raw, numb, volatile, or ashamed

    • Moms who crave deeper conversations than ones about sleep schedules and gear

    • Moms who want support that honors their whole identity—not just their role as “mom”

      As of now, this membership is specific to first time moms. Whether you’re partnered or solo, straight or queer, gave birth or became a mom through adoption—you belong in this space.

    • Permission to tell the truth

    • Emotional tools for the darkest days

    • Language for what you’ve been feeling

    • A room of women who get it

  • This isn’t just about sleep schedules or feeding methods. It’s about your emotional truth.

    We name the grief, the resentment, the loneliness, and the rage—so they don’t own you in silence.

    We talk about the fantasy of disappearing.
    The days that feel endless.
    The shame of not feeling grateful enough.

    This is that space. You don’t have to explain yourself here.
