Seasons of Woman

A depth psychological journey through the seasons and archetypes of womanhood

Are you…

  • Carrying a complicated relationship to aging — dreading it, grieving it, or simply not having the language for what this next chapter is asking of you?

  • Reckoning with what it means to grow older as a woman in a culture that has handed you stories about aging that don't fit — stories about loss, invisibility, and decline?

  • Struggling with your changing body — feeling alienated from it, or wanting to find a way back to it?

  • Wanting a more positive, embodied relationship to aging and to the body you are living in now?

  • Ready to rewrite the stories you have inherited about what your body means and what you are becoming?

  • Grieving your youth, even as part of you knows there is something waiting on the other side of that grief?

  • Moving through the transition into motherhood and feeling like no one is tracking what is happening to you — not just the baby?

  • Still processing a birth experience that was transformative, difficult, or nothing like you expected?

  • Navigating perimenopause or menopause and finding that the cultural script — manage it, medicate it, push through — isn't working for you?

  • Anticipating a transition you can sense coming but don't yet have language for?

  • Craving a map — a framework — for understanding where you are in your life and what this season is asking of you?

  • Longing to be in a room with other women who are exploring these themes?

Seasons of Woman is an 8-week depth therapy group for women at any stage of life.

Drawing on archetypal psychology, somatic awareness, and relational depth, the group moves through the four seasons of a woman's life — Maiden, Mother, Matriarch, and Crone — and the initiations that mark each one: menarche, first sexuality and eros, birth and matrescence, perimenopause, menopause, and the passage into elderhood.

Each week we explore one season — its qualities, its challenges, its shadow, and what it is asking of you. We bring in the biological and neurological dimensions of these passages, the cultural and ancestral stories we have inherited about them, and the erotic and relational threads that run through them all.

The work is both educational and deeply personal. You will receive a framework — a map of the feminine life cycle — and you will have space to place your own story inside it.

Together, we ask: do we consciously recognize and mark these passages? If so, how — and what is lost when we don't?

This group holds space to acknowledge what went unwitnessed. To grieve it. And to reclaim it.

It is not too late to rewrite the stories we inherited about ourselves, our bodies, and our womanhood.

These are archetypal passages, not identities. A woman need not be a biological mother, or identify with any season, to find herself in this work. Every woman holds all seasons. No initiation is required to belong.

What you can expect:

Each session opens with a somatic practice — arriving in the body before arriving in the material. We move through brief psychoeducation on the season we are exploring, then into open relational processing — sharing, witnessing, and being witnessed by other women. Between sessions, you will receive contemplation prompts to sit with in your own time.

This is depth work. We will move slowly, and often end up in unexpected places.

Feedback from past participants:

“The group absolutely shifted my understanding of what it means to be a woman. Being in community with other women helped decrease shame and build empathy about uniquely female experiences — around sexuality, relationship to one's body, menses, and aging. It gave me the language and container of initiation to understand my life experiences and where each fits into the whole of my life story. I could not be more grateful to have this framework now."

“I went in not knowing what to expect and left with so much self-compassion and a desire to embrace my life as it is now. A rare, powerful, and deeply special offering."

“Seasons of Woman helped me navigate one of the most challenging seasons of my life while creating the space to practice self-acceptance, self-compassion and self-forgiveness.”
