Having a baby through gestational surrogacy can bring feelings of excitement and hope, but also isolation. This intimate support group gives Intended Mothers an opportunity to connect with other women who are also having a baby in this unique way. Over the course of 6 meetings, group members will discuss a range of themes that accompany the surrogacy experience, explore their hopes and fears, and most importantly, trade support with others who can truly relate.

Meetings are held over Zoom on Fridays, from 11:30-1. I generally run the group series four times each year. I am currently accepting new group members for a cohort that will begin in June 2025.

The group is open to residents of any part of California. It is appropriate for women who are considering surrogacy, in the active planning stages, or whose surrogate is newly pregnant. Currently, it is reserved for first-time moms. If you are interested in joining in June, or a future cohort, please contact me for a short screening call.

In the future, I would like to offer a group just for second-time moms who carried their first pregnancy and require a surrogate to have another baby. If you fall in this category and would like to join a group with other second-time moms, please contact me to express your interest.
