“Motherhood is the noblest of causes, but it’s not necessary to lose ourselves in the process.” -Amy M. Brinton

Let’s face it - being a parent today is hard.

Depression

Does any of this feel familiar?

  • Depression, anxiety, or anger, especially during pregnancy, postpartum, or the early years of motherhood

  • Feeling drained and exhausted

  • Not sleeping

  • Constantly worried

  • Mind racing

  • Obsessive thoughts

  • Unable to relax

  • Handling the mental load all on your own?

  • Comparing yourself to others on social media?

  • Neglecting self-care?

  • Putting your own needs on the back burner?

  • Doubting your abilities?

  • Having a hard time connecting with others who understand your experience?

  • Feel like you’re drowning?

Take a deep breath, because you are not alone.

You’ve come to the right place.

Jersey City Therapist

Hi, I’m Stephanie.

I’m a mom and I believe in the power of asking for help.

As a first-time mom, I struggled with postpartum anxiety. It was supposed to be the happiest time of my life; wasn't it supposed to come with ease? The truth was it's hard and I needed help. I reached out and got the support I needed.

As a therapist, I focus on the one thing that no one is talking about: the stress and exhaustion of modern motherhood.

I get it – no one told you it would be this hard. And despite what momfluencers say, it is not all sunshine and rainbows. We’re not meant to it all alone.
