Pregnancy + Postpartum Therapy
Parenting is hard…..
You had a vision of what your life would look like with your new baby. You prepared your birth plan, filled your home with newborn essentials, took classes, and read books. You felt confident. Then…..a traumatic birth, high needs baby, lack of support, breastfeeding challenges and little sleep turns, what you had hoped would be an easy transition, into a real struggle. The demands of being a new mom becomes overwhelming and stressful in a flash. You feel robbed of these special newborn moments that you had dreamed about.
Maybe you’re feeling like…
You’re trying to do everything “right,” but you still feel guilty for not doing “enough.”
Motherhood doesn’t feel the way you hoped.
You feel overwhelmed, overstimulated, anxious, and exhausted.
Your partner just doesn’t understand what you are feeling and you don’t know how to explain it.
You are grieving your old self because it doesn’t seem to have room in your new life.
You are trying to navigate the loneliness you feel even when you are surrounded by people.
The dream of what you thought motherhood would be like feels out of reach
The demands of being a new mother brings on an unexpected range of emotions including excitement, and joy, and as well as feelings of sadness, grief, guilt and even anger.
With the surge of all of these feelings, it is hard to be present with your baby and yourself.
The reality is, you are trying to give your all in this new role as a mother, but there is something keeping you from feeling connected and fulfilled.
Some days feel easier than others, but you’re ready to feel the easier days more often than not.
You are not alone.
Being a mom is hard + postpartum is real
Motherhood does not have to feel this way.
Can you imagine feeling…
Heard, validated, and supported throughout your motherhood journey.
Like your old self has space in your new life as a parent.
Unstuck and connected to your baby and this new experience.
Like you can finally focus on enjoying this time without depression or anxiety in the way.
Like you are a good mom because you are doing your best… (because you are).
Go from feeling overwhelmed to confident, calm and connected- so you can enjoy being the parent you’ve always wanted to be.
