Therapy for Moms
What’s Really Missing in Motherhood
Parenting can feel like you’re carrying a hundred invisible tasks just to keep life running, while your own needs constantly get pushed to the back burner. Maybe you’ve done the books, the podcasts, talked to all your friends and family, the endless scrolling for tips (thanks, algorithm). Maybe you’ve even asked ChatGPT for help with bedtime routines after a long day. All of that can be helpful, but what’s missing in your parenting isn’t another strategy… it’s you.
Ok but I hear you… working on yourself is hard and it takes effort, but I argue it’s even harder parenting when you don’t know where you are leading from.
You can't help anyone breathe if you can't catch your own breath.
How You Get Back to Feeling Like Yourself
This isn’t about tips or coaching. It’s a space for you, as a human, to come back to yourself. To step out of survival mode. To stop feeling like self-care is some luxury you’ll never reach. In therapy, we’ll look at all sides of your life—the good, the hard, and everything in between. I’ll help you reconnect with or find who you are beyond the endless to-do lists, clarify what truly matters to your family, and feel grounded in the choices you make.
When Everything Feels Like Too Much
For so many moms, anxiety doesn’t just live in your thoughts, it also lives in your body. It’s waking up already on edge, staying ten steps ahead all day, and collapsing at night still wired. You’ve searched, scrolled, tried the tips... but the pressure lingers. And when you're in survival mode, even simple decisions can feel like too much.
Easing Anxiety
Anxiety in motherhood isn’t a sign you’re failing. It’s a sign you care deeply and have been carrying too much on your own.
You Deserve Space to Slow Down
Therapy gives you space to notice what’s really going on. What’s fueling your anxiety, what’s draining your energy, and what helps you feel steady again. Together we’ll shift from reacting to understanding, so you can respond with more clarity and calm. Life with kids doesn’t slow down, but you can learn how to move through it with more ease and control.
Confidence & Self Trust
You’re Already a Great Mom!
If you’re here, it’s because you care and that already says so much. You want to do right by your kids, and you’re trying to figure out what that looks like in a world full of mixed messages. With so much parenting advice online, it’s easy to start second guessing yourself. Even the well meaning tips can feel like pressure, especially when they contradict each other. Before long, everything starts to blur, and trusting your own voice feels harder to do.
Confidence in motherhood doesn’t come from knowing all the answers. It comes from trusting your own.
Therapy Helps You Come Back to You
This is a space to tune out the noise and reconnect with who you already are. Your family doesn’t need to become someone else you just need room to hear your own voice again. Together, we’ll notice the parts of you that already feel confident, steady, and clear, even if they’ve been quiet for a while. We’ll slow things down enough to understand what actually matters to your family, not what the internet says should matter. From there, we’ll build a way of parenting that feels less like performing and more like living. Because when you trust yourself, everything at home feels a little lighter.
