Therapy for Mothers

While this page centers mothers, I also welcome and affirm non-binary and gender-expansive parents navigating the emotional weight of caregiving.

Motherhood can be one of the most meaningful and rewarding roles —and also the most emotionally complex.

You deserve space in the story too.

You’re trying your best, but sometimes it still doesn’t feel like enough.

Just as you start to adjust to one stage of parenting, everything shifts again. As your kids grow, so do the expectations—on them, and on you. The thought of one day becoming an empty nester brings sadness and uncertainty: Did I do enough? Did I do it right?

Maybe you weren’t always sure about becoming a parent—but now, you’re deep in it, and some days it feels like you’re drowning. You love your kids fiercely… and still find yourself grieving the life you had before them. That grief comes with guilt and it feels taboo to talk about it.

In this ever-changing role of parenting, you deserve to have a place to land softly and feel more grounded. It’s okay to be uncertain and unsure, we can navigate this together.

It’s important to you to break cycles—but it’s exhausting.

You’re committed to doing things differently than how you were raised. You want to become the parent you needed as a child. But it’s hard. And even though you are parenting with more intention, you keep second-guessing yourself.

And some days, no matter how hard you try, you snap. Not because you don’t care, but because you’re overwhelmed and running on empty. You never meant to yell, but it feels like you keep hitting the same wall. Afterwards, the shame hits hard: I told myself I’d stay calm and swore I’d never parent this way. Am I just repeating old patterns?

You don’t have to do this perfectly to be a good parent. Together, we’ll explore your triggers, help you work with your nervous system, and build the confidence in all that you are.

You want to connect—but it seems like your attempts are misinterpreted.

You want your child to be okay. To feel loved and supported. But everything you say seems to land wrong—or not at all. Maybe conversations turn into arguments… or into silence. You notice that your child is struggling, but you’re scared of saying the wrong thing and making it worse.

If your child is LGBTQIA+, you're not alone.

Whether they’re exploring their gender, questioning their sexuality, or have recently “come out”—it’s okay if you’re still processing what this means while trying to love them whole-heartedly. You’re allowed to have questions, uncertainties and still be the supportive parent your child needs.

It’s possible to support your child and nurture the relationship you hoped for. It doesn’t always have to feel like you're walking on eggshells.
