Groups
I used to facilitate several new parents’ groups at Mama & Me in Jamaica Plain. These groups are warm and welcoming and are a wonderful place for new parents to meet each other and connect. The groups I run are mother-centered and are loosely structured based on the interests of the group.
As a psychotherapist at The Leggett Group, I hope to facilitate groups that offer support around perinatal emotional complications, as well as groups for parents of color. |
“Smart, compassionate, witty and easy to talk to, Divya was a lifesaver as a first time mom. I attended multiple of her new mama groups and it's a testament to her that I remain close friends with many of the new moms I met there - she facilitated meaningful discussions, restored our confidence in ourselves, and empathized in difficult moments. There are only a few things I miss from those wild west newborn days, and Divya's groups are one of them.” “I met Divya at a new parent support group, where she was the facilitator. She encouraged us to tune out the noise and listen to our intuition. She was one of those wise parents who went before us, like a big sister who you felt comfortable asking questions. As a role model that I respect, she is one of those people who I think about when I come to a difficult part of my parenting journey. I've often thought: wwdd (what would Divya do)? |

“As someone who has run programs along side Divya, I have seen her adept skill, compassion, and sense of humor in her work, as well as the impact it has on the mothers. She creates a strong sense of community amongst her clients, and as her colleague, I learn more and more from her each day. “ |
