fertility journey

Whether you’ve been trying for years or just stopped birth control, your fertility journey can hold some of the highest highs and lowest lows. For women struggling with IVF, pregnancy loss, and miscarriage, the pain can feel impossible to manage. 

 

The thought of trying, doing everything you can, and laying in bed at night wondering if you’re missing something or doing it all wrong—it can feel like trying to become pregnant on top of your full-time job.
 

What’s worse, it can feel taboo to talk about the pain you’re in. We want to build transparency into this season so you can walk through it fully supported.

We're here to support you with:

  • Individual therapy for processing emotions

  • Couples support for relationship strain

  • Coping strategies for social situations

  • Processing pregnancy loss

  • Discussing and navigating alternative fertility options

  • Space for both hope and grief. We’ll hold both with you.

Holding the unknowns of motherhood

expecting a baby

The elation of the positive pregnancy test is real, but so is the overwhelm of all the conflicting parenting advice. Everything is changing—your body (who knew nipples could change this much?), your identity, your ability to hold in your pee—and you’re wondering how you’re going to manage all of the mom stuff and your career. Or if you want to work at all. 

 

It’s all a little outside your control, which is not the movie-like vibe you expected when you first got pregnant.

We're here to support you with:

  • Preparation for the emotional transition

  • Partner communication strategies

  • Birth story processing

  • Identity exploration and navigating a new sense of self

  • Career transition planning

Holding the anticipation of motherhood

newborn stage

It’s baby time. You get to nestle the little chunk in the crook of your neck and feed him or her with tender, loving care. It’s beautiful. And sometimes, it’s terrifying. An unraveling of yourself. 

 

Sometimes you’re crippled, literally, by postpartum anxiety and depression, and it feels like a gut punch to have waited so long only to have the newborn stage feel really, really, unspeakably hard.

We're here to support you with:

  • Safe space for the scariest thoughts

  • At-home support when you need it most

  • Practical tools for emotional regulation

  • Partner communication support

  • Identity exploration and integration

  • Processing birth experiences

Holding the joy and exhaustion of motherhood

the toddler years

Your toddler demands the blue bottle (no, not THAT blue bottle, Mom!) while you're trying to explain to strangers why your child is face-down in the Target aisle. Between sleep regressions, constant touching, and trying to maintain a relationship with your partner beyond comparing notes on poop consistency, it's no wonder you're running on cold coffee and goldfish crackers.

We're here to support you with:

  • Strategies for emotional regulation (yours and theirs)

  • Couples therapy to get on the same parenting page

  • Tools for setting boundaries with family and friends

  • Self-care planning that actually fits your life

  • Processing your own triggers when history repeats itself

  • Finding moments of peace in the chaos

Holding the chaos of motherhood

school-age kids

Your calendar is a tetris game of sports practices and school events, while you're navigating friendship drama and screen time negotiations. Somewhere between managing your child's independence and processing your own childhood trauma that suddenly feels very relevant, this stage brings a whole new depth to motherhood.

We're here to support you with:

  • Tools for supporting your child's emotional development

  • Strategies for school challenges and learning differences

  • Communication techniques that grow with your kids

  • Boundary setting with activities (because no, you can't do it all)

  • Processing your own childhood memories as they surface throughout the stages of mothering

  • Creating space for both independence and connection
