Every day feels the same – hectic.
Each day includes a hectic morning routine, endless to-do lists, afternoons packed with errands, taking the kids to extracurriculars, and a rushed dinner followed by a chaotic bedtime routine.
The evenings often consist of kids crying and adults yelling. There is no time to connect with your partner or do anything for yourself.
When you finally get the kids to bed, you feel too tired to do anything other than aimlessly scroll through your phone or veg out in front of the tv before dragging yourself to bed.
The next day, you wake up and repeat.
You put everyone else first.
Almost everything you do, from when you wake up to when you go to bed, is for others. This feels like the only way to ensure you meet your children’s and your partner’s needs and keep the household running smoothly.
Everything is up to you, including making the doctor’s appointments, communicating with the teachers, planning the parties, and keeping track of every assignment in your mental calendar.
There is never time to do anything for yourself. You feel like you are running on empty.
You want and need more.
Instead of feeling annoyed and angry with your children, you want to enjoy your time with them.
Rather than co-existing as roommates under the same roof, you want to feel connected to your partner.
You want to be fully engaged in your life, not just going through the motions.
But you don’t know where to start.
Therapy is the first step in making YOURSELF a priority.
You are ready for a change. I know you are!
There was some reason that brought you to this page, and I am so excited for you because I know what comes next!
Individual therapy is a beautiful way to make space in your life to take care of yourself and attend to your mental health needs.
We can do this together.
I will work with you and help you gain the confidence to put your needs first to be a better mother and partner.
Together, we will develop a treatment plan that acknowledges where you are today, where you want to be, and the specific steps to get you there.
