Therapy for mothers in pregnancy, postpartum, & motherhood in Louisiana
does this sound all too familiar?
Feeling Overwhelmed and Isolated: You feel alone in the weight of responsibilities, struggling to manage the demands of parenting, work, and personal life without adequate support.
Loss of Identity: Shifting from an independent sense of self to a role primarily defined by motherhood can bring a sense of disconnection and a yearning to rediscover who you are outside of being a mom.
Intense Guilt or Self-Criticism: The pressure to be a “perfect” mother can lead to constant feelings of inadequacy and guilt, especially when expectations don’t match reality.
Difficulty Bonding with Baby: Struggling to feel a natural connection with your child can create shame and worry, leading to a fear that something is “wrong” with you as a mother.
Impact on Relationship with your Partner: the first few years of your baby’s life often puts a new kind of strain on relationships, leading to distance, communication breakdown, and conflict that can feel insurmountable.
It will not be this hard forever, but you don’t have to wait it out to find relief.
