You’RE STILL YOU.

Parenting and Identity Support

Parenting changes everything—including your sense of self. You’re doing so much for your family, but underneath the daily demands, you might be wondering: What happened to me?

Therapy can help you reconnect with yourself while navigating the evolving challenges of raising young children.

You’re carrying more than most people can see.

Maybe you're overwhelmed by the mental load, burned out by the constant needs of others, or feeling disconnected from who you used to be. You might be wondering:

  • “Why do I feel so alone—even surrounded by my family?”

  • “Who am I outside of being a parent?”

  • “Why do I feel guilty no matter what I do?”

These are real, valid questions. You deserve support, not self-judgment.

In therapy, we make space for your full identity: the exhausted parts, the ambitious parts, the ones that miss your pre-parent self. Together, we’ll explore what balance looks like for you, and how to show up for your kids without abandoning yourself.

How therapy works

You can learn to care for yourself while caring for others.

I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process your experience. My work is rooted in a person-centered and strengths-based approach. We’ll focus on:

  • Managing guilt, burnout, and resentment

  • Navigating changing roles and expectations

  • Exploring how your own upbringing influences your parenting

  • Reconnecting with a confident, compassionate version of yourself

You don’t have to figure it all out on your own—and you don’t have to disappear in order to care for others.

Therapy for parenting support can help you…

  • Reclaim time and space for your own needs

  • Let go of unrealistic expectations

  • Feel more emotionally present and less reactive

  • Set boundaries without guilt

  • Strengthen your sense of identity and self-worth

Let’s work together to help you feel more like yourself again.
