Program
Mindflow Motherhood
Becoming a parent is one of the most significant psychological transitions a person can go through — and one of the least talked about.
The experience of matrescence — the identity shift that comes with parenthood — can bring profound joy alongside grief, disorientation, and change. If you're finding that hard to navigate, you're not alone, and you don't have to work through it without support.
I'm Sara, a Melbourne psychologist with a particular interest in the psychological experience of parenthood and matrescence. I work with mothers, birthing parents, and those navigating this transition in any form — at any stage of the journey.
Mindflow is an inclusive practice. I welcome clients of all genders, sexualities, relationship structures, and family configurations.
