Counselling for Women Contemplating the Choice Mom Journey

Single Mother by Choice Journey

Are you thinking about becoming a ‘choice mom’? Many women are deciding to become mothers through alternative reproductive technologies for a variety of reasons. This life-changing decision can be accompanied by many confusing and often challenging dilemmas. Consider counselling as a way to uncover your true feelings and prepare yourself to face the journey with confidence, knowledge and self-awareness. Some of the challenges facing women who are contemplating single motherhood:

*loss of the traditional dream of getting married and having kids
*transformation of the idea/vision of what ‘family’ is and how it is created
*becoming an effective and confident decision-maker
*talking to family about your decision
*creating a supportive network of friends and family to assist along the way
*navigating the process
*finding other women to share experiences and ask questions
*pregnancy
*post-natal challenges as a single mom

I'm currently accepting a few new clients in my private practice! This is good news because it means my current clients are doing well and scaling back the number of sessions they need. It's also very good news for people who are trying to find a good counsellor with in-person and online availability! Please share the word.

BCACC's Matters of the Mind presentation has been announced for June 6th, 2023 from 6:30pm-8:00pm PST.

Self-compassion is the act of treating ourselves with kindness and acceptance, even in moments of struggle or difficulty. It doesn’t come easily, but with intention & practice it can contribute to our emotional well-being and help us cultivate resilience, inner strength, and a more positive outlook on life.

In this session, you'll learn strategies for practicing self-compassion and how to model it for others in your personal and professional life. You'll gain a deeper understanding of the benefits of self-compassion, including improved relationships, increased happiness, and reduced stress and anxiety.
