A Program for Moms
held
nervous system nourishment and recovery
You have spent years holding everyone else. Their feelings, needs, fears and bodies. This is an invitation to be finally held yourself - in body, community and in the slow work of coming home to yourself.
Is this for you?if you have been the nervous system of your family- this is for you.
❋ Always OnYou feel like you are constantly scanning- for everyone else’s moods, needs and distress. Even when nothing is wrong, your body doesn’t quite believe it.
❋ Exhausted in ways sleep doesn't fixYou are tired at a level that goes deeper than rest. Something in you has been running for a long time without being replenished.
❋ Reactive in ways that surprise youYou lose patience faster than you want to. Small things feel big. You know it isn’t really about the thing- but you can’t seem to stop it.
❋ Disconnected from yourselfYou have don the work - therapy, books, practices. But something deeper, something in the body, hasn’t shifted yet. You sense there is another layer.
What is Held
A different kind of healing container
“We don’t just talk about the nervouse system. We give it a different experience, over and over, in safety, in relationship, in time.”
Held is an 8-week virtual group program that combines the Safe and Sound Protocol — a clinically validated, nervous system intervention — with somatic therapy, nervous system education, and the quiet power of being witnessed by other moms who understand.
The program is built around the family nervous system: co-regulation with children, intergenerational patterns, and the particular depletion of being the emotional center of a household. This isn't generic wellness. It is specific, clinical, and designed for the life you are actually living.
The SSP is delivered individually via an app on your own device, on your schedule — so the listening work is private and personally paced. The group meets bi-weekly to learn, practice, and regulate together. Individual sessions bookend the program so your experience is held with personal care throughout.
How it Workseight weeks.
a lifetime of difference.
01individual intake
60 Minutes, 1:1 Before the group begins
We begin together, privately. Before the group opens, you and I meet individually to map your nervous system history, set intentions, complete a baseline assessment, and orient you to the Safe and Sound Protocol. This session establishes the foundation everything else builds on
02 foundation & integration
Weeks 2-6 Weekly Group Sessions 75 minutes
Four group sessions woven across six weeks, each combining nervous system education, therapist-led somatic practices, and space for reflection. Between sessions, you continue SSP listening privately via the app.
Topics move through the arc of the program: understanding your autonomic patterns, neuroception and the mom nervous system, your window of tolerance, co-regulation and depletion, regulation tools for real life, and the rhythms that rebuild felt safety.

03individual midpoint check-in
Week 3 or 4 1:1 3o minutes
A private check-in to review your SSP experience, adjust pacing if needed, and make sure the program is meeting you where you are. This is also where we track early shifts — in sleep, reactivity, capacity, or groundedness.
04depth & completion
Weeks 7-8 Final two group sessions
The program moves into its deepest territory: the nervous system you inherited and the one you are passing on. Intergenerational patterns, the family nervous system, and what it means to be a cycle breaker — not through willpower, but through regulation.
The final group session closes with integration, celebration, and a shared sense of arrival.
Intergenerational nervous system patterns
