As a mother, you’ve done all your homework and have read all the scripts on what should be done, but for some reason, you’re still not feeling satisfied. You seem to have a never ending to-do list that overwhelms you and always seems to pull you away from what you truly want: a deeper connection to yourself, your partner, and your children. Within the ocean of “shoulds”, you are feeling anxious, resentful, unseen and unheard, while asking yourself, “What’s the point of working so hard?” As you try to keep up with all of the things, everything seems to be bubbling over and like it’s about to explode.
I am here to listen and collaborate with compassion and nonjudgment, to ensure your story is heard and continued with intent. I use a variety of counselling modalities to support you as you find the path that is authentic and grounding so that you can cultivate many joyful moments during the unpredictable, demanding, and emotional journey of motherhood.
There isn’t just one way to be a mother. As your therapist, my goal is to help you take the steps you need to carve out your own unique path, heal from your unique experience, and ground in ways that are individual to you. With the right guidance, you can find more calm, joy, and balance in your everyday life, allowing you to be more present with your kids.
