Motherhood is a profound journey of becoming.
Whether you are newly postpartum, mothering school-aged kids or re-defining your role as a parent of adult children, I would welcome working with you on your journey of building your family and maintaining your own wellness and health.
Motherhood brings unique challenges that impact mental health and well-being from overwhelming anxiety to sheer joy. Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders can significantly affect your physical and mental health and well-being. Finding a safe space to express struggles and fears is so essential. I offer compassionate support tailored for mothers on this transformative journey. Embracing motherhood means embracing your feelings and experiences. Together, we cultivate a deeper understanding of your unique experience, allowing you to thrive and become as both an individual and a mother.
I offer therapy designed for moms, by a mom (me!), prioritizing providing a safe and supportive space to explore feelings of anxiety, overwhelm, and self-doubt that often accompany parenting and developing a maternal identity.
Through contemplative and depth-oriented approaches, you can gain insight into your emotions, develop coping strategies, and nurture a deeper connection with yourself and your children. Whether you're navigating perinatal mood disorders or seeking guidance in balancing the demands of motherhood, therapy can help you reclaim your sense of self, foster resilience, and cultivate a fulfilling connection with your child. Embrace this journey of self-discovery and healing, and give yourself the care you truly deserve (without the guilt). Reach out and let’s talk more about your becoming.
You are holding so much.
Some days it feels impossible. The mental load of caring for an infant, planning meals, birthdays, aftercare, choosing childcare, determining work schedules, sleep schedules, maintaining a healthy partnership and the list goes on. All of this can lead to exhaustion, self-doubt, and a feeling of being stretched too thin. Many mothers find themselves grappling with emotional highs and lows, questioning their own identities while trying to balance personal needs with familial responsibilities. This journey can be isolating, especially when societal pressures paint an idealized image of motherhood, leaving many women feeling inadequate or alone in their experiences. Support and understanding are crucial during this tumultuous time, as mothers learn to embrace their own journeys with compassion and patience. I am here for you. I get it. I am a mom of 3 and a licensed therapist, here to listen and provide a space to connect more deeply to yourself. You should not have to go it alone.
