Matrescence is the developmental process a woman experiences on her journey of becoming the Mother. Similar to adolescence, matrescence affects various aspects of her life. This journey involves physical, social, emotional, and spiritual transformations, and each woman's experience is uniquely her own. Importantly, this transformation is not a linear path; it is cyclical, seasonal, and continues to evolve with every stage and phase of motherhood. Support for mothers during this transition is essential for navigating the complexities of matrescence.

Rebecca is the founder of 'Becoming the Mother'. As a certified Trauma-Informed, Seasons of Matrescence™ educator and guide, and an Embodied Processing Practitioner, Rebecca's most sacred and important role remains that of a Mother to her four beautiful children. With many years of experience in residential childcare, she has worked with children who have a history of trauma. Through this journey, Rebecca has gained extensive knowledge about matrescence, trauma, and nervous system regulation, while also experiencing multiple matrescence transformations herself. Having healed from trauma, she is dedicated to providing support for mothers and their children, especially those facing trauma and behavioral challenges. Rebecca believes that the best way to assist a struggling child is to simultaneously support their mother. Passionate about aiding mothers through their unique matrescence journeys, she aims to minimize the long-term effects of trauma and mental health challenges for both the mother and the child.

Rebecca offers in-person and online guidance and support for mothers at every stage of their unique matrescence journey. As you navigate becoming the mother you aspire to be, your support and guidance should be tailored to your individual needs.

You were never meant to navigate matrescence in isolation. When you join other mothers in circle, something magical happens. Come and sit in circle to experience the support for mothers that helps you feel seen, heard, and validated in your journey of becoming the Mother.

Every Mother needs a sacred time and space dedicated to her own healing, especially during the transformative journey of matrescence. Traumas and loss are a part of life, and in becoming the Mother she aspires to be, it is essential for mothers to find support for themselves as they heal and journey back to wholeness.
