Mum and Baby Group – Pregnancy, Neonatal, Infant Loss

Creating Connection After Loss – 12 Week Art Therapy Course

Wellspring Therapy and Training is setting up a new 12-week art therapy group for mothers and babies who have experienced pregnancy, neonatal, or infant loss.

The loss of a child can deeply affect future pregnancies and early parenting. Creating Connection After Loss offers a safe, supportive space where mothers can gently process grief, strengthen emotional connection with their baby, and reduce feelings of isolation through shared experience and creative expression.

  • For mothers with babies aged 0–18 months
  • Suitable for those with a history of pregnancy, neonatal, or infant loss
  • Group size limited to 8 mother–baby pairs
  • Participants should be cleared by a medical or mental health professional

Benefits include

  • Processing grief and trauma through gentle, creative expression
  • Strengthening bonding and emotional attunement with their baby
  • Reducing anxiety and isolation by connecting with other mothers
  • Supporting secure attachment and long-term emotional resilience

Practical details

  • Start date: Wednesday 25th February
  • Time: 11:00–12:30
  • Location: Training Room, Wellspring, Harrogate
