If you're the mom who's trying to be everything for everyone- juggling it all with "I've got it", only to feel guilt, anxiety or resentment when it becomes too much- I see you. Lately you've been wondering if this heaviness is just exhaustion or something more. You love your baby, but your mind keeps racing- you're anxious, on edge, and you can't remember the last time you truly relaxed. You tell yourself you should be grateful, but instead you feel irritable, overwhelmed, and guilty for even admitting it.
Sessions with me will allow you a space to be more than just "the mom". I'll help you regain your identity & confidence, feel less mom guilt and be more comfortable asking for help. Our work will focus on tackling negative thoughts and unrealistic expectations that keep you stuck in an anxious loop.
Having and utilizing your village in motherhood can provide invaluable validation and guidance. If any of this hits home for you and you want to start building your village, reach out to me today for a free consultation.
