Moms

Everything on the individuals page applies to moms, because you are individuals too! But a special note to say Moms are incredible. Wherever you are in your journey of motherhood, your own therapy can benefit you and your kids.

Becoming a parent is often portrayed as a joyous and fulfilling experience, filled with proud moments of love, laughter, and growth. However, for many, even those who had great childhoods, this new identity also brings to light childhood wounds, reopening scars that we may not have even realized were there. This paradox of joy and pain is particularly poignant when we strive to give our children the nurturing we may never have received, revealing the true weight of our past. This can illicit overwhelming emotions and grief. It can also lead us down a path of reacting out of triggers instead of responding as the intentional parents we’d like to be. With courage, work, resources, and time, this pain can also lead to healing, unburdening, and the breaking of painful generational cycles and legacies.

What I wish for my clients who are moms is the ability to model their BIG lives and build their own resiliency so their kids can do the same for themselves. I get it-where is the time, money, and village for this work? I want to encourage you to invest in yourself as a person.  You are still you, even if it feels like you’ve forgotten who that is.  You may know you want to make a change, but there are so many barriers in the way. But let yourself take up space on the calendar and in the budget for this. You are worth it and doing this work may benefit the generations that come after you.
