Holistic therapy for women+ and teen girls+ located in Michigan
Specializing in postpartum anxiety, depression, birth trauma and teen TTRPG group therapy.
Can you relate?
As a parent who’s expecting and had a previous traumatic birth or pregnancy loss, you’re scared to death that history is going to repeat itself. It’s hard to enjoy your pregnancy when you have a feeling of impending doom. The people in your life don’t seem to understand why you can’t “just get over it.”
As a parent who’s recently postpartum, you feel like you’re barely holding it together. It feels like something bad is going to happen to your baby and you’ve got to be hypervigilant to make sure nothing goes wrong. Your body can’t relax because your mind is always racing. You notice that you’re agitated and you feel guilty for snapping at your partner or children.
As a parent to a teenager, you’ve noticed the changes. Your teen is spending more time alone, seems moodier (whether sad, angry, or both), has trouble sleeping, and seems overly critical of themselves or their school work. You want to help them, but you don’t know how. You want to see them happy and healthy, but something is in the way of them living their best life.
As a teenager, you’re overwhelmed and feel lost. You’re scared of making the wrong choice and you second-guess yourself constantly. You work hard at school but when you get the A, it still feels like you’re failing or like you should have done something differently. You feel awkward around other people and wish you felt as confident as everyone else. You just want to feel more comfortable in your own skin and your decisions.
