Our perinatal (pregnancy & postpartum) OCD group is here to help moms from pregnancy to two years postpartum with symptoms of OCD, like intrusive thoughts, obsessions, and compulsions. Our online groups are here to help you connect with other moms, talk about your experience, and learn about helpful tools and resources. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to attend the group.
Held in partnership with the International OCD Foundation, these groups are led by PSI-trained support group leaders who have lived experience. They understand the emotional challenges of pregnancy and postpartum as a mom with OCD. You are not alone. We are here to help.
All of our groups are FREE and virtual. When registering for ShareWell for the first time, skip the unlimited offer on the payment page.
What to Expect
Our groups are 90 minutes (1.5 hours) in length. The first ~30 minutes is spent providing information, education, and establishing group guidelines. The next ~60 minutes is “talk time,” in which group members share and talk with each other. Group members must be present for the group guidelines before joining in the discussion or “talk time.”
Student and clinical observations are not allowed in our group spaces due to confidentiality and creating a safe space.
Cameras are required during introductions for the safety of all group members. Please make sure your technology allows you to turn on your camera at least briefly for this portion of the session.
The session will take place via Zoom (from the ShareWell website), so make sure your device is compatible with the Zoom app. This may require updating or downloading the Zoom app.

In this new platform, we will no longer have a waitlist function. **We will allow up to 16 group members to enter the group, so please arrive on time to get a spot. Once we reach 16 members OR we have started talk time, the group space will be closed.**
