 by Julie Wright, MFT, Leader of The Wright Mommy and Me Groups Hi Julie,
I was wondering if you knew of a good "Daddy and me" type group that might be good for my husband. I wish he was getting all the good info and support that I have been getting :)
Thanks!
Anne
I'm not kidding; this just in! Thanks Anne! That about sums up what I've heard over and over in my classes. "I wish my husband/partner could hear this!"
We strive to bring high level, mindfulness oriented, research based information to our classes but only half of our parents are benefiting, at least until now. Our dads are just as hungry for this information and support!
Speaking of research, it's been documented that a large number of couples report decreased marital satisfaction after the birth of a baby. We also know that couples who communicate well and are able to negotiate ways to work together, have a much better chance of staying happy in their marriage.... Read more...

 Sona A. Tatiyants and Jennifer Burnham-Grubbs
August 28th at 6:30pm in Hollywood
Sona will focus her part of the workshop on addressing estate planning needs from a young family's perspective. And, while there's no such thing as "one size fits all," this basic overview is a great start in how to think about your own family's needs. Find out how to protect your minor children and assets with all the necessary estate planning documents including wills, trusts, guardian nomination for minor children, special needs trusts, and more.
Jennifer will help demystify the process of obtaining life insurance and teach how to get the best value for your dollar out of a policy. Learn the difference between term life insurance and variable life insurance, and determine which kind of policy is best for your family right now. It doesn't have to cost a lot to make sure your loved ones are protected.
We are interested in helping people understand how important it is to address this aspect of their family affairs since too often it is something that gets put off or forgotten needlessly. Call 310-998-1981 to register. Click here...

Postpartum Challenges Support Group
"Being a new mom has brought me joy, love, and rewards that I have never experienced before. However, it has also brought many expected and unexpected challenges -sleeplessness, worry, loneliness and feelings of inadequacy. It was hard for me to feel comfortable sharing these feelings with others during a time that many believe should be the best of your life. The Postpartum Challenges Support Group at The Pump Station has given me a safe space to discuss the highs and lows of new parenthood with other moms who are facing the same hurdles. The reassurance of the Group and the guidance by Tiffany have made me a more confident parent and person."
