You love your baby. But somewhere along the way, you lost a bit of yourself.
Free online gathering for mums
Mamas Circle is a warm, free space to find your way back and find your people. Gently held by Dr. Alria Williams, Clinical Psychologist.
✔ No pressure to share
✔ Camera optional
✔ Not recorded
✔ Psychologist facilitated
Many mums feel invisible after having their baby.
You are not alone
Not because they don't love their child. And not because something is wrong with them.
It can start to feel like you've become a background character in your own life story.
Conversations revolve around feeding, sleepless nights, and milestones. Even mum spaces often stay light when something deeper desperately wants to be expressed.
If any of these feel familiar, this space was made for you:
Longing for someone to ask "How are you?" and truly mean it
Feeling distant from people you once felt close to
Craving adult conversation, but unsure where to find it
Yearning for connection without making things heavy
A space where the unspoken parts of motherhood are welcome.
About Mamas Circle
Mamas Circle is a free, small online gathering where the real, unfiltered experience of motherhood is not just allowed, but welcomed. You don't need to show up as your best self.
Your experience is taken seriously
Connection grows through listening as much as speaking
No comparison, no expectation to share more than you want to
Your journey to connection
How it works
① Reserve your place
Sign up for a small, online circle. Nothing to prepare, no expectation to share.
② Step into connection
Join from home via Google Meet. Gently paced so there's room to settle in.
③ Take part in your own way
Speak, reflect quietly, or simply listen. All forms of participation are equally valued.
What mums say
Words from our attendees
“Finding a place to be brave, not only safe... thank you for listening and not judging.”
“It’s helpful to hear you’re not the only one feeling this way.”
“I can already feel a shift, feel hopeful and hope others are able to feel a shift”
“We are all more alike than different.”
Your Host
Dr. Alria Williams
Clinical Psychologist & CBT Therapist
I created Mamas Circle because I understand the weight the early years can bring and I've seen how much lighter this journey becomes when you feel truly supported.
“My goal is for every mum who walks through the door, even a virtual one, to leave feeling a little less alone.”

Not at all. Join in your PJs, while feeding your baby, camera on or off. Just come as you are.
