At Gather Well, we create nurturing spaces for women and families to feel seen, supported, and connected through all the phases of becoming, from pregnancy to postpartum and beyond. Welcoming those who are navigating growth, change, and life transitions is at the heart of who we are, whether those changes are related to parenting or not.
Our gatherings offer honest conversation, meaningful connection, and holistic support in a joyful, welcoming community.
Gather Well, formerly known as Dawn’s Groups is led by Dawn Ellis, LICSW, who brings more than 30 years of experience holding space for others. Alongside a team of like-hearted facilitators, our offerings weave together mental wellness, personal growth, and the healing power of togetherness to support you through life’s seasons and transformations.
Let's Gather
Join us for support groups and special events designed to bring you real-life connections, honest conversations, and the space to breathe.
The discussions that Dawn prompted us to have were really valuable and her tips were extremely relevant to what I was going through in the moment. I felt really seen and supported.

It is so normalized for babies to be challenging in the new-parent transition, but no one wants to talk about how difficult it is for older siblings (and by extension, their parents). It feels taboo to talk about these challenges, like hitting and regressions, when the baby arrives, so this platform was amazing to be able to do that.

The experience made me feel part of a group, not alone and that other people are going through exactly what I have been going through! A great way to meet moms in the area and socialize.
