• Constantly mentally multitasking
• Feeling guilty for missing milestones or meetings
• Trying to “do it all” without asking for help
• Exhausted but unable to stop
• Struggling to enjoy the present because the to-do list never ends
• Unsure where you fit in the middle of your work and family roles
• Quietly wondering: “Why does it feel like I'm failing—even when I’m doing so much?”

If this sounds familiar, therapy can help.

Let’s be real: Being a working mom is hard. You're managing two full-time jobs—your career and your home life—with expectations that you excel at both without ever missing a beat. The pressure is invisible but constant. And often, you’re the default everything.

What no one tells you is that:

• The burnout is real
• The guilt is loud
• The balance is fragile
• And the emotional load? Crippling at times

You’re not weak. You’re not failing. You’re carrying more than anyone realizes.

I combine personal understanding (I'm a working mom too) with clinical training to help you move from survival mode to a life that feels more sustainable and whole.

We'll work collaboratively using evidence-based approaches like:

• EMDR Therapy to rewire unhelpful beliefs (like "I have to do it all") and process burnout and trauma
• Internal Family Systems (IFS) to explore and heal the parts of you that push, please, and perform
• Evidence-based strategies to support emotional regulation and build lasting resilience
• Attachment and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for exploring identity, motherhood, and relationship dynamics
• Self-Compassion Practicesto shift from self-criticism to inner kindness

This isn’t about bubble baths or telling you to “just take a break.” It’s about deep, sustainable change that supports your full self—professional, mother, woman, human.

Here are just a few strategies we might explore together:

Boundary Setting

Boundaries are what protect your energy, time, and relationships. Together, we’ll define and communicate clear limits that honor your values—and help you stick to them without guilt.

Releasing Guilt & Unrealistic Pressure

You're not meant to do it all, and certainly not alone. We'll work to challenge internalized beliefs about worth, productivity, and “mom guilt” that no longer serve you.

Delegating & Sharing the Load

You shouldn't carry everything. We'll strategize ways to ask for help, delegate without shame, and build a supportive “village” (yes, even if you feel like you don’t have one right now).

Time for You—Without Apology

We’ll create space in your life for rest, joy, and personal fulfillment. Not as a luxury, but as a non-negotiable.
