You always knew you wanted to be a parent. It was easy to imagine the experiences you'd have with your kids- dinners discussing your day, cheering them on from the soccer field, holidays building memories... What you didn't plan for was the weight of your responsibilities. It's so hard to be present and tuned in when your mind is racing from one to-do list to the next. When you're so exhausted that you want to just lay on the couch. When the demands placed upon you feel insurmountable. All you want is to respond with patience, but you are irritated, stressed, and have no idea how to begin getting your life back to balanced.
Let me use my extensive training to help walk with you through these complicated and stressful life stages. I'll teach you new, appropriate coping strategies and parenting tools to help. With empathy and support, you'll learn to rebalance work and home life in a way that is sustainable and energizing.
You don't have to grit your teeth and count down the hours until bedtime anymore. I'm here to support you and bring out your best. Let's navigate these challenges and regain a sense of calm and flexible order over your life. We will do this by attending to your unique needs and setting healthy boundaries.
