My Story

I can honestly say I felt the onset of overwhelm the second my daughter was placed on my chest where she screamed for the next hour. (this was not the golden hour I had hoped for)  

There were so many new things happening and none of it seemed to go right.

The overwhelm quickly turned to despair and it began to affect my marriage.  I was devastated and embarrassed that this was how I felt about motherhood. (I hated it and felt regret that I’d even had a baby) 

Seeking help was not easy (yes, even for a therapist) but things started to get better once I did.  

Soon, I started to feel like my old confident self again. 

My personal struggle is why I am passionate about helping mothers.  

I offer individual sessions via video or phone to any location.
