Do you often feel weighed down by anxiety or shame? Do you question your ability as a mother, partner, or a friend? Well I get it, because I’ve been there too.

“It’s fine. I’m fine. Everything’s fine.” You can’t put it into words or don’t know who to confide in, so that’s what you portray. But that’s NOT what’s going on inside. You disconnect to survive. But, if any of the following sounds like you, that skill is wearing out: your moods are all over the place; your sleep is off; you’ve been sick or in pain; memory and focus are down; work is just stupid, and you always seem to be in conflict with someone. Plus, if you’re expecting, now you have another generation and the pending birth blowing up your list of concerns! You can’t help thinking, "This is not how my life is supposed to be."

I promise to genuinely listen to your words, unburden you, provide guidance and arm you with tools to help you navigate your current life circumstances.
