Personal Growth Group for Parents of Children with Special Needs

Hybrid Process Group - In-Person (Newtown Square) & Zoom

Being the mother of a child with physical or mental disabilities can be both profoundly meaningful and deeply exhausting. This group offers a safe, dynamic space for mothers to connect with others who understand the unique joys and challenges of parenting a child with special needs. Through process-oriented dialogue, creative expression, and action methods drawn from psychodrama and drama therapy, participants will have the opportunity to explore their emotions, share their stories, and discover new pathways to healing and resilience. Themes may include grief, guilt, advocacy, identity shifts, self-care, and navigating systems.

Facilitated by: Colleen Baratka, MA, TEP, CTP-3

Meeting Time: Every other Tuesday 7:00 - 8:30 PM Beginning December 2, 2025

We ask for 10 session commitment with a 10% discount if paid in advance.

Hybrid format - join us in-person at our Newtown Square office or via secure Zoom 

We believe healing should be accessible, so this group uses the Green Jar Initiative-a flexible sliding scale based on your current financial capacity-to accommodate a range of financial needs.

Full Jar ($75) - You're able to pay the full fee and help sustain the group             Half Jar ($40-$50) - You need some financial relief to attend regularly             Empty Jar (Can we discuss affordable options) - - You're in a tight spot but want to be here No one will be turned away for lack of funds. Just discuss with us.
