Feeling like a failure as a parent or partner? Difficulty remembering who you were before kids? The unrealistic expectations of making time for your family and yourself while dating your spouse, sticking to your family schedule, and getting to work on time are not sustainable.

It’s easy to feel like you’re drowning in your own life.

You give everything to your children—to build healthy, trusting bonds and ensure their happiness. But what about you?

Burnout, irritability, partner stress, yelling at your children, damaged relationships, low self-esteem.

You deserve happiness and meaning in your life and time will only make the anxieties and feelings of overwhelm worse.

Ready to feel less weighed down by life and create healthy habits that are enjoyable?

Ready for a life that has less friction? Less negotiating with yourself? Less wasted time?

Let’s work together to identify triggers of stress and create ways to care for yourself so caring for others comes more easily.  When your confidence increases, your frustrations and irritability will lessen.

I want to normalize how hard it can be to be a parent, or partner, and realize that change is possible.  Throughout this chaotic life, we can be confident, we can be proud, and we can live the life we want to live.  Pain may come, especially as a parent who may see hurt in our children. Therapy helps build tools to tolerate that pain more effectively. 

I see you and I’ll see you through this.
