I work best with women who experience anxiety, depression and struggle to focus on their own needs. Problem areas may include becoming explosive or frustrated toward those you love and having difficulty changing your emotional reactions no matter how hard you try. You may feel like your life is not headed in the direction you would like it to go. Common concerns include anger and rage, resentment, not feeling like yourself and feeling as though you can’t keep it together like “all the other moms.”
