About this online group:

Following the success of our Keeping Mum course, a regular bi-monthly support group for alienated mothers will begin on May 13th at 5pm UK time.

Working with the psychological understanding of how mothers are rejected by their children aspart of an ongoing pattern of coercive control and post separation abuse, this group will provide a consistent anchor for mothers which is facilitated by Karen Woodall.

Framed around the psychological recovery process from post separation abuse used by the Family Separation Clinic, this group offers education, guidance and support before, during and after family separation where children are captured by an abuser.

Working with mothers who are rejected by their children it is clear that many face the crossfire of allegations that they are alienating their children, even while their children are being manipulated against them. Because mothers who face this complexity of dynamics, they are often in need of additional support to enable them to understand how to manage the family court system as well as the psychological responses of their children.

Utilising the extensive knowledge base of the Clinic, with the experience of working in the family courts around the world, Karen Woodall offers a connecting, containing and consistent approach to managing the trauma of being rejected by a child. Focusing on structural management, including how to present your case and manage the dynamics in the court process, this regular support group will assist you to build a strong and confident sense of self and psychological understanding of your children and how to help them.

This group is based upon a psychological understanding of coercive control and by integrating clinical insight with legal literacy, it helps mothers to become strong advocates for the needs of their children, whilst simultaneously working to shift the intergenerational patterns that perpetuate psychological harm.
