Motherhood is hard. It is messy. If you're struggling to find moments of joy, you're feeling alone and overwhelmed, you wonder if something is wrong with you and you long for your life before becoming a parent- you're in the right place. If you're feeling resentment building with your partner, the voices of anxiety, depression, sadness and rage have been loud and you don't know know how to manage them- you're not alone. If you're working to heal from a traumatic birth, you are struggling with the demands of parenting and paid work and you do you don't know who you are anymore- I'd be honoured to hold space for you.
Over the years as I've worked with parents, I've seen so much healing come from those who are willing to explore the hard parts of this journey. I use embodied techniques like mindfulness, EFT (tapping), art, gentle movement, parts work (IFS), CBT and other approaches so you feel supported and also have tools you can use outside of our work together.
Amidst the disorientation of parenthood I believe there lies the potential to slow down, to know ourselves more deeply than ever before, and to feel some control over the way we want our lives to look. As my mentor, Jessie Harrold says: You are not broken. You are becoming. With the right support and care things will get better.
