🌸If you've read my book - Breaking Free, Blooming Wild - it would be amazing if you could drop a review on Amazon to let me know your thoughts and to help signal boost to other women who might need the book.
Also, if you haven't read it, check it out through the link below. I'm biased, but I think it will help people with their own Mother Wound. Perhaps, helping people to recognise that they have one. 🌸
You deserve to be happy. Make 2026 your year for healing.

The holidays are coming up, and with it the expectation of being friendly with all family members. It's a particularly difficult time if you have a Mother Wound, with all of the expectations in place to act like nothing is wrong with your own mother. To be nice, to navigate around the egg shells in your path, to be someone you aren't.
My Daughters of the Roses circle is an online programme dedicated to women recovering from the emotional neglect caused by narcissistic and toxic parenting, also known as the Mother Wound. Support can be essential this time of year.
By joining this group you will:
🌸 Have regular opportunities to ask me questions and ask for support through weekly lives and posts
🌸 Have access to my exclusive online healing library full of talks, workshops, meditations and guides you can work through at your own pace
🌸 Get support and guidance on every step of your healing journey
🌸 Be inspired to reclaim your sense of who you really are under the pain and suffering you have experienced all these years
🌸 Be part of a global sisterhood who are all investing in themselves to break the cycle and heal their mother wounds.
This group is run by me, Charlotte Pardy MA, an award-winning, trauma-informed, registered psychotherapist, who has extensive experience in helping women heal from the mental and emotional wounds this type of parenting causes.
If you have a constant feeling you are not good enough, that no matter how much you achieve it's never enough, that everything was about your mother, and you struggle in your relationship with her, this group is for you.
You deserve to be happy. You deserve joy. You deserve to not associate the holiday season with dread.
Are you the Lost Kid or the Scapegoat? Do you see your siblings getting preferential treatment? Does it seem like your brother or sister can do no wrong in your mother's eyes?
Perhaps you've become the Chameleon? To quote from Breaking Free, Blooming Wild: "This is the child who tries their best to be everything for everyone.... They constantly try their best and can be driven to do well academically, or in work, but receive very little support or praise, unless it’s in public to make mum look good." Does this sound like you?

We're seeing a growing movement when it comes to setting crucial boundaries with our family members, parents included. It is slowly becoming something that is seen as normal - as it should be. We need to be able to heal in the face of trauma. Boundaries are important. Do what makes you happy.

It's been almost two months since Breaking Free, Blooming Wild was released!
Have you read it? What did you think?
It's been wonderful to hear the feedback from Mother Wound survivors who are finding the book helpful in starting their healing journey. Or, in understanding their own journey so far.
If you're experiencing a controlling mother and want to start your own healing journey, you may find my book a good place to start understanding the trauma you've lived through.
It's been a week since Halloween, and for some people horror-movie mothers are a thing of fiction. They seem extreme and over-the-top, but unfortunately for many of us, it all hits a little too close to home. Narcissistic, controlling, manipulative behaviour is a reality, and not confined solely to our screens, or within the pages of books.
Just know, you are not alone. You don't have to accept your reality as inevitable or something to endure.

🌸New blog post!🌸
I've taken a moment to respond to The Independent’s article on family estrangement, exploring how stepping back from a parent can be an act of self-care, not cruelty, and why letting go of what was never yours to carry is a vital step in healing the mother wound.
We're seeing a greater awareness of the prevalence of Mother Wounds within our society.
Have you read Jennette McCurdy's "I'm Glad My Mom Died"? It's an incredibly honest, and well-written, book about Jennette's controlling mother and her journey towards healing.
The title may have raised eyebrows for its honesty, but this is Jennette's story to tell, and it's eye-opening. Mother Wounds can appear anywhere, and you are not alone.
Are there any books in this vein that you would recommend to other mother wound survivors?

Have you read my book, but want more dedicated therapy to help you overcome your Mother Wound?
Whether you would prefer 1-to-1 support or a group setting, I have options available that would be perfect to start your healing journey. It's time to invest in yourself.
It's been just over a month since my debut book - Breaking Free, Blooming Wild - released! It's been incredible to hear the feedback from Mother Wound survivors who are finding the book helpful in starting their healing journey.
If you're experiencing a controlling mother and want to start your own healing journey, you may find my book a good place to start understanding the trauma you've lived through. Click on the link below 👇 https://amzn.eu/d/bNKdkKQ

The Meditative Counsellor is also known as Charlotte Pardy, who has been working as a private therapist since 2012, originally under the name of Infinite Dimensions Wellbeing. it's a small community minded business dedicated to helping others through yoga, meditation, Reiki and counselling.
Her ethos is to help people to improve their mental health and wellbeing through therapy, education, and empowerment.
If you're ready to talk, I'm here to listen.
The heart of my work is meeting a Client where they are in therapy and teaching them the skills that help them to curate the life they want through education and empowerment.
I believe there is a strong connection between the mind and body which is why I work holistically and offer more than counselling to my Clients.
I am very passionate about what I do because I see the real difference it makes to people's lives. I have seen people go from multiple panic attacks in a day to returning to work, work through depression, grief and life changes and heal from trauma and abuse.
In the words of my Clients:
'The counselling has really helped me talk and open up about problems that had been upsetting me for years. Talking about them has helped me to release them and feel much happier in my life.'
AC Former Counselling Client
'Charlotte is someone who has a lot of time for people regardless of background or their issues. The techniques taught will certainly assist anyone, no matter how new to meditation, to be calmer and more in tune with themselves.'
Cristian Ludewig Former Meditation Client.
I have over 10 years experience in working with adults and young people and as I offer many of my services online or via Skype, Zoom or by phone I can work with people throughout the UK.
