About this Event
The Well is unlike any Mother's Group you've ever been a part of. It is a portal into vibrant connection with yourself and a community of women. A place to expand and make space for the grief and joy of living. A place to reconnect to who we are outside of our caretaking roles.
In the nurturing guidance of community we use yoga, dance, meditation, somatic experiencing, and therapy to create unique experiences to release trauma and to step into a stronger version of yourself.
Limited to 7 participants!
This will be a six-week closed group, starting January 5th and ending February 9th.
Previous participants say :
"I feel so empowered in my practice of being vulnerable in a nurturing and loving space. I feel stronger and softer inside."
A note on COVID : Proof of vaccination is required for attendance and will be checked at the door our first week. If you, or any of your immediate family members are exposed to COVID, we ask that you wait five days from exposure and get a negative PCR test before rejoining our community. Masks are optional.
We acknowledge that we are teaching on the traditional land of the first people of Seattle, the Duwamish Tribe. We are grateful for the deep wisdom and magic of this land and the first people who cultivated this sacred place.
The Well aims to be an anti-racist, inclusive space for all who identify as Mother. In this space, we acknowledge each member's individual experience unique to their identity and memberships to particular groups. We expect all participants to be respectful and kind toward each other at all times. We encourage any interested participants, including BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ individuals, to reach out for a discussion with one of our leaders about what a supportive and safe environment looks like for your healing.

Julie Jean Davidson (she/her), MA, LMHC is a somatic psychotherapist based in Seattle (un-ceded Duwamish Territory). She brings ten years of experience working with individuals, couples and groups—helping people heal trauma, recover their innate sense of goodness, and reclaim connection to their body, sexuality, and identity. Her work centers around connecting to self and community through somatic, nervous system, and trauma-informed modalities. Julie loves caring for folks in the sacred perinatal period, and knows the value of support during this time as she has three young children of her own. She identifies as a white, cis, queer woman who loves cooking, taking risks, and eating around a table with soulful people.
Jenny Wade (she/her), MA, LMHC + RYT, is a psychotherapist and yoga teacher who specializes in trauma recovery and body image healing. She believes that expression through movement, sound, and visual arts are a superhighway to freedom. Her mission is to teach the world that your body is not an object to critique, but a part of yourself to accept and connect to deeply. Jenny is a white, cis-gender, queer woman. When she's not working she can be found cooking and sharing delicious meals, appreciating good stories both written and spoken, practicing yoga, and enjoying family time with her sweet and hilarious husband, son, and kitty.
