Motherhood is a transformative experience that is often beautiful, overwhelming, lonely, and exhausting all at once. If you're a new mom who's feeling anxious, sad, or like you're barely holding it together, you are not alone. Perhaps your birth or postpartum experience didn’t go as planned, or you’re grieving a loss that still feels heavy. You miss feeling like you, and you’re not sure how to get back there. I work with mothers navigating the emotional ups and downs of pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood. Together, we’ll slow down, create space for your needs, and help you connect to this new version of yourself.
My style is warm, collaborative, and compassionate. In our work together, we may focus on: Reconnecting with your body and calming your nervous system, healing from difficult or traumatic experiences, letting go of guilt and self-doubt, setting healthy boundaries and advocating for your needs, and rediscovering joy, balance, and self-trust.
I offer therapy for mothers at all stages of the perinatal journey, from preconception through early parenthood. You don’t have to keep pushing through or pretending you’re fine. You deserve to feel more at ease in yourself and in motherhood. If this resonates, reach out to schedule a free consultation - lets help you feel like yourself again.
