Care better for yourself so you
can care better for your family!
Online Therapy for Individuals and Parents in California
You always dreamed about being a parent.
Of course, there would be moments that weren’t easy, but you were sure that the joys would far outweigh the challenges.
You couldn’t wait to snuggle a little baby, go to first sports games, and bond with your teenager over shared interests.
Seeing all the mommy bloggers on the internet with their perfect children in their perfectly posed photos with witty captions, you thought, “I can’t wait to have that kind of life!”
This is not what you expected.
It seems like all your time is spent working on an endless to-do list.
On this list: all the things YOU need to do to meet OTHERS’ needs and keep your home and family running smoothly.
Even when you are able to check something off, it doesn’t seem to make a dent.
You feel overwhelmed.
It’s a battle to get through each day, only to wake up and have to do it all over again.
As a means of coping, you’ve mentally checked out.
Life as a parent is just not what you thought it would be.
Parenting is not easy, but it doesn’t have to be a struggle.
Yes, being a parent is a 24/7 full-time job.
And yes, the little people that you are in charge of can go through stages that make this role extremely challenging.
BUT, there is a way to manage your life that allows you to be a loving and engaged parent while ALSO having the time to focus on yourself… because YOUR MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS TO BE A PRIORITY.
There is light at the end of the tunnel.
And I can guide you there.
Hi, I’m Catherine.
I am a strong believer that a parent needs to be their best self to take care of others.
For mothers and caregivers, this can seem counterintuitive. Often they make everyone else around them the priority and completely forget to take care of themselves.
Let’s work together to change this narrative.
You deserve to have the motherhood experience you’ve dreamed of having.
I provide a safe space where you will feel supported to express your feelings and thoughts without feeling judged.
We will collaborate to develop an individualized plan that includes learning new coping skills, identifying available support people in your life, and connecting you to resources in your community.
Today is the time to put yourself and your needs first.
Stop being your own last priority.
You deserve to receive just as much care
and support as you give to others.
It would be my privilege to help you get that.
