Shaina Rae is a somatic attachment therapist and parenting coach who is revolutionizing the way women prep for motherhood. Through her signature program, Mom School, Shaina teaches women how to break the cycles of inherited family trauma and nurture a secure attachment relationship with their child from the very start. With a rich background in attachment and subconscious healing, her work not only helps women radically improve their mental health through somatic emotional processing but she also teaches them how to support their kids so that they can get the same results. Inspired by her personal journey of overcoming loss and chronic illness, Shaina is committed to helping women build deeply connected family units, ensuring that their children grow up with thriving mental health, resilient nervous systems, and all of the tools they need to thrive as they grow into adulthood.
