ABOUT MUMS IN DISTRESS
‘Mums in Distress’ is a national support group for mums experiencing separation from their children.
Everything we do is 100% free, female friendly and confidential.
Everyone you’ll talk with is a volunteer and a mum friendly peer who’s been through it themselves.

Parents Beyond Breakup not only supports parents experiencing trauma through family breakdown and separation but also acknowledges the specific issue of parent-child contact and custody battles commonly termed ‘parental alienation’, a factor closely linked to stress, anxiety, depression, isolation and suicide in Australia.
Every child deserves to have a relationship with both of their parents ….
