"I feel lost and disconnected to the vibrant, carefree energetic woman I used to be- I can't even remember who she was!"
Can you relate?
You’re an ambitious, go-getter, loving mom. You love your family....yet somehow, despite "having it all" on paper, you feel like something is missing and you notice yourself slipping away. Struggling to find meaning, purpose and your personal identity - your daily motivation has take a hit.
But the thought of saying that out loud or even doing something about it - because how dare you not be grateful for the life you have - stops you dead in your tracks.
So you keep plugging along on autopilot.
Days turn into weeks, which turn into months and you start to forget the last time you belly laughed.
The last time you filled YOUR cup and felt fulfilled.
The last time you TRULY enjoyed your time with your kids or your spouse.
If you're noticing a sinking feeling in your heart that this speaks to your current life situation, I get it. AND it doesn't have to be this way.
Perhaps you’ve heard unhelpful chimes from other moms…
That’s the thing, as moms, it’s ingrained in us that our value comes from productivity, how present we are as a mother and our ability to "do it all".
So that's what we do - we tackle the never ending to-do list, the mental checklists, the emotional and physical demands of the children, all while making sure everyone around us feels loved and secure.
It's no wonder that we lose ourselves along the way.
There simply isn't ROOM for us at the end of the day.
You love being a mom. You love your kids more than life itself. And while you’re incredibly grateful for the life you have, feelings of anxiety, burnout, frustration, irritability, resentment, unfulfillment and guilt are starting to creep in.
However the story plays out for you, at the end of the day…
It’s you, laying in your bed at night, drained, feeling alone, irritated, defeated, racing thoughts - wondering how you ended up in a life that doesn’t feel like your own and completely overwhelmed about how to move forward.
You’re looking for support from someone who “just gets it.”
You’re desperate to break the unhealthy cycles you’re stuck in.
You’re ready to (re)discover who you are outside of being a mom and wife/partner.
You’re ready to support your own emotional + mental health and happiness.
You’re in the right place, I can help you get there.
While using art in the process can be an amazing tool for us to use, many moms I work with also prefer more of our conversational style work together and rarely access art in our sessions. We will follow what feels most supportive for you.
I would be honored to be a part of your motherhood journey. Schedule a free 20 minute consult by clicking the button below so we can determine if working together is the right fit for both of us. Looking forward to connecting with you!
One of the ways I work is utilizing art making…Why Art Therapy?
Sometimes words are not enough.
Maybe you wish you had another way to express your thoughts and feelings because it feels like you talk circles and stay stuck...
Art therapy allows us to tap into another area of our brain and subconscious allowing us to move thoughts and feelings out of our bodies and into physical form through the creative process.
You WILL discover a deeper love and understanding of yourself through the healing and transformative powers of therapeutic art making.
