Created by mothers, grounded in clinical practice.

We created Centering YOU from our experiences as mothers and our work in perinatal mental health. We wanted mothers to have something tangible to return to, a way to pause, recognize their experience, and explore a practice or conversation that meets the moment.
What Mothers and Providers are telling us…
“The Centering YOU card deck was amazing for me after I gave birth! It is something tangible that I can hold in my hand, turn over, and display in my room on the beautiful wooden stand. I love that it is REAL. The empowering quotes, helpful actions, and resources helped me feel more settled and grounded throughout my days postpartum - at a time when I needed it the most.”
— Mother
“As a counselor, I can say the same things to my clients, but there’s something about having a physical card—it really helps them feel empowered and more focused on whatever they’re working through.”
— Mental Health Clinican
