It’s okay to be surviving and not thriving right now.
I get it. Becoming a parent is nothing like you’ve seen in movies or on your friends' social media accounts. This is hard AND you are doing great. Struggling during this stage of life does NOT mean you are doing a bad job or are a bad parent. Let me help you see that.
Hi, I’m Julie!
I help parents navigate the unique set of challenges that occur during the transition to parenthood and identify realistic solutions to what feel like unsolvable problems. I believe you can have a life filled with happiness and joy while navigating the challenges of becoming a parent.
You are not alone. You can find fulfillment in life while navigating the unique terrain that is parenthood.
Counseling for
Maternal Mental Health
A woman's journey to having a baby impacts their emotional, physical, mental, social, and professional lives. Between trying to get pregnant, coping with a miscarriage or loss, navigating the constant changes that pregnancy brings, and adjusting to having a new baby, it can feel like the light at the end of the tunnel will never come.
Counseling for
Parenthood
Parenthood is an ever evolving process that leads people to experience the entire spectrum of emotions. When you become a parent there is an abrupt shift in the life you knew before and this transition is challenging for everyone in its own way. However, your happiness, identity and relationship do not have to suffer along the way.
Counseling for
Couples
It is common to experience conflict and challenge in your relationship. Most couples struggle to find ways to stop the never ending cycle that results in feeling defeated and disconnected from your partner. It is possible to reconnect to your partner and experience a fulfilling relationship moving forward.
