Being a mom can be so hard. It feels like you spend so much time and energy taking care of everyone and everything, yet you can never catch up. There’s always more to do, and often it feels like you’re not doing any of it right. There’s no manual for motherhood, so we’re left to muddle through as best as we can. And as if our own expectations, worries, and pressures aren’t enough, there are so many demands placed on us by society that it often just feels impossible. It’s no wonder being a mom can be so challenging.

It's not your fault. We live in a world that isn’t built for moms. Unfortunately, perinatal mental health difficulties such as postpartum depression and anxiety are common. So many moms of young kids live life feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and burnt out. You’re not alone. I’ve been there, I am there, and I get it.

Just because the struggle is common doesn’t mean it’s okay. You deserve to take care of yourself. We can’t change the system, but we can change how we talk about it, how we feel about it, and what we do about it. Together we can find new ways to deal with life’s challenges so you can get back to being the best person, and mom, you can be.

I tend to use a relaxed, conversational approach as we get to know one another. As we begin to better understand the problem and the goals, I will often offer new ideas in the form of visuals and analogies with hopes that it will resonate and help you feel empowered to tackle the problems differently. I strongly believe in the mind-body connection and will often bring this into conversations.
