I’m a counselor, but I’m also a mom navigating many of the same messy, beautiful, complicated experiences my clients bring into the therapy room.

I’ve experienced birth trauma. I’ve walked through profound loss. I’ve learned what it means to mother while grieving my own parents. I’ve carried joy and heartbreak in the same season.

Those experiences don’t make me an expert on your story. But they do help me understand what it feels like when life doesn’t fit neatly into a box.

You can love your children deeply and still struggle.
You can be grateful and grieving.
You can be healing and hurting at the same time.

There’s room for all of it here.

If you’ve been telling yourself, “I’m fine, just busy,” this is your reminder to check in with yourself.

How are you really doing?

Therapy offers a place to slow down, be honest, and receive support without judgment.

“You only have 18 summers.”
It’s often shared with good intentions, but for many moms, it can feel like one more thing to carry.
One more reminder that time is moving too fast.
One more reason to feel guilty when you’re tired.
One more expectation to make every moment magical.
The truth is that motherhood can be beautiful and overwhelming at the same time.
You can love your children deeply and still need a break.
You can cherish this season and still find parts of it hard.
You can be grateful and exhausted.
This summer, what if we traded pressure for presence?
What if instead of trying to make every moment count, we focused on supporting ourselves through the moments we’re actually living?
This is exactly what we’ll be exploring at Motherhood Circle: A Softer Summer.

I chose this work because I believe mothers deserve more than survival.

More than being told they’re “doing great” while silently struggling.

More than a six-week checkup and a pat on the back.

Mothers deserve support, care, community, and space to tell the truth about what motherhood feels like.

You matter, too. 🤍

In a culture that celebrates productivity, parenthood often teaches a different lesson.

Slow down.
Notice more.
Be present.

Children rarely care how many items were crossed off the to-do list. They invite us to pause, to wonder, to linger a little longer.

Many of us have been taught that our worth is tied to what we accomplish, produce, or achieve. Parenthood can gently challenge that belief.

Our worth is not measured by our productivity.

Sometimes the most meaningful moments happen when we move at a child’s pace.

☀️ Motherhood Circle: A Softer Summer 🌿

Summer can bring so much pressure—to make memories, plan activities, keep everyone happy, and somehow enjoy every moment along the way.

This month, we’re creating space to slow down and reflect on what a softer summer might look like. Together, we’ll explore the expectations we carry, the realities of motherhood during this season, and ways to cultivate more presence and less pressure.

Join us for connection, conversation, and community with other mothers in a warm and supportive space.

Healing doesn’t only happen through processing pain. It also happens through experiencing joy.

Mother’s Day can hold so many emotions at once.

For the mothers holding their babies close,
the mothers longing for a baby to hold,
the mothers grieving, healing, missing their own mothers, or carrying silent pain behind the smiles today — I see you.

There is no “right” way to feel today.
Joy and grief can exist together. Love and longing can, too.

Wherever this day finds you, may you make space for yourself in it.
You are seen.
You are worthy of care.
And your story matters. 🤍
