Whether you're a brand-new mom navigating the rollercoaster of motherhood for the first time or a seasoned mama with a few kids under your belt, I see you. Motherhood is beautiful, but it’s also incredibly challenging—and you don’t have to go through it alone. Do you ever find yourself thinking, "this is so much harder than I was expecting, I love my child so much...but damn this is hard!" Same mama, same.
For new moms, that transition can feel overwhelming. Suddenly, your world is filled with sleepless nights, endless diaper changes, and an all-consuming love that can take your breath away. But let’s be honest—it’s not all bliss. There are moments of deep exhaustion, self-doubt, and feeling completely lost in this new role. You may find yourself battling worry and anxiety, scary thoughts, mood swings, irritability, anger or rage, or the weight of feeling like you’re just not yourself anymore. It can leave you questioning if you're doing enough or if you're a "good" mom. You may find yourself thinking, "this isn't what I expected." and feeling intense guilt for this. Or maybe you experienced a scary birth or a birth that did not go as planned and you are struggling with this. You are not alone.
For moms with multiple kids or back-to-back pregnancies, the challenges shift, but they don’t necessarily get easier. Juggling the needs of multiple little ones while trying to keep the household running—and maybe squeeze in a second for yourself—can feel downright impossible some days. The chaos and pressure can be exhausting. You may find yourself thinking, "I didn't think I'd be the mom that yells" Hello mom guilt.
No matter where you are in your motherhood journey—whether you’re dealing with postpartum depression, anxiety, a difficult pregnancy or birth, or even loss—I'm here for you. You deserve support, and together, we can navigate these challenges so you can feel like yourself again.
In our sessions, you’ll find a safe, nonjudgmental space to share your highs, your lows, and everything in between. I specialize in helping moms like you process the emotional and mental load of motherhood. Whether it’s managing postpartum mood disorders, balancing the demands of family life, or finding time for self-care, I’m here to offer the tools, guidance, and support you need to thrive.
And if childcare is a challenge, don’t worry—your little ones are always welcome to join you in sessions.
Growing up with emotionally immature or unavailable parents can leave lasting marks, often called "childhood wounds." These can show up in your adult life in unexpected ways—especially when you become a mom yourself. Maybe you struggle with perfectionism, self-doubt, or fear that you’re not doing enough for your own children. Perhaps you feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or notice patterns from your own upbringing surfacing in how you parent.
The emotional pain and trauma from childhood can shape how we see ourselves and how we relate to others, including our own kids. These past wounds can make motherhood feel more challenging, leading to feelings of guilt, shame, or the constant pressure to be the "perfect mom."
In therapy, we’ll explore how these wounds from your past are impacting your life today. Together, we’ll create a safe space to unpack the pain, process your emotions, and begin to heal. We’ll work on building self-compassion, setting healthier boundaries, and breaking free from the patterns that no longer serve you, allowing you to parent with greater confidence and peace.
It’s time to take care of you, mama. You deserve to feel supported, validated, and equipped to handle whatever motherhood throws your way. Let’s work together to embrace the messy, beautiful adventure that is motherhood.
