Motherhood
You love them deeply. And sometimes, it’s still a lot.
The mental load, the overstimulation, the guilt, the resentment you feel guilty about on top of everything else. Motherhood doesn’t stop asking things of you when the baby years end.
Together we make room for who you are inside all of it: your identity, your relationships, and the earlier chapters, like infertility or postpartum, that can stay with you into later motherhood.
How I approach this
Motherhood is not a diagnosis, and sessions do not treat it like one. We start with the load you are carrying, the parts that are yours and the parts that landed on you. The resentment that is easier to admit to a stranger belongs here too. Some of what comes up started years ago and never got its turn. It gets its turn here.
This might be you if
- You are touched out by noon and guilty about it by one.
- You keep the whole calendar in your head and nobody knows it is there.
- You are short with the people you love most, and you hate that.
- You cannot remember the last thing you did that was only for you.
- You cry in the car, then walk in smiling.
