Mothers Talk with Natalie Shechter - At the Port

You are invited to 3 meetings, each focusing on a topic that occupies us in everyday life: partnership, boundaries, and the kind of mother I want to be.

A pleasant, open, nonjudgmental space to pause for a moment, talk about what is changing, and leave with some thoughts and tools from the world of Adlerian psychology that you can take home.

You are welcome to come with your babies, just as you are.

3 meetings on Mondays, from 16.11 through 30.11 (inclusive)

From 10:30–12:00

You may register for one meeting, two meetings, or all three:

Payment for 3 meetings: 240 NIS

Payment for 2 meetings: 170 NIS

Payment for a single meeting: 90 NIS

In addition, you can purchase a parking voucher at a reduced price for 3 hours.

Meeting 1 | Partnership, Teamwork, and Everything in Between

Monday, 16.11 | 10:30–12:00

A new baby joins the family, and with them come changes in the relationship. Suddenly there is less time together, more tasks, tiredness, expectations that are not always spoken aloud, and sometimes even the feeling that we are no longer really on the same side.

In this meeting, we will look together at the relationship during the period after childbirth through principles of the Adlerian approach. We will talk about teamwork, communication, and expectations, and learn about small things that can help us feel like a team again—even during this busy period.

Meeting 2 | Boundaries in Early Childhood

Monday, 23.11 | 10:30–12:00

How do we set boundaries and maintain them even when the household is undergoing change?

The arrival of a new baby brings a lot of excitement, but also a major change for the children who were already at home. Sometimes, דווקא then, we encounter more resistance, “boundary testing,” outbursts, and difficulty accepting our “no.”

In this meeting, we will talk about boundaries in early childhood through the Adlerian approach, understand what lies behind the children’s behaviors, and learn how it is possible to maintain clear boundaries alongside connection, closeness, and an understanding of their needs during a period of change.

Meeting 3 | What Kind of Mother Do I Want to Be?

Monday, 30.11 | 10:30–12:00

We all enter parenthood with expectations and values—but amid the tiredness and demands of everyday life, it is not always easy to act as we would like.

In this meeting, we will pause for a moment and ask: What is important for us to pass on to our children? Which values guide our parenting? And how can we move closer to that, even when things do not go according to plan?

Through principles of the Adlerian approach, we will examine our parenting choices and the way we want to build our relationship with our children.

Because we do not need to be perfect mothers—we can pause, choose, and refine

the mothers we want to be.
