Is motherhood proving to be more challenging than you anticipated? Do you find yourself feeling drained, tearful, or unsure how to juggle all the demands on your shoulders? Perhaps you’re looking for a caring professional to help you navigate the early stages of this life-changing journey. With the right support, you can show up fully for your baby while staying connected to yourself and your partner in meaningful ways.

While many describe the transition into motherhood as a time of joy, it often brings unexpected changes and challenges that can feel overwhelming. Therapy provides a safe space to process these emotions and receive guidance during this transformative period. At Barton Creek Counseling, I focus on supporting mothers, offering compassionate care for those facing postpartum depression, anxiety, or simply the weight of adjusting to motherhood. Whether this is your first baby or you are growing your family,  let me help you find balance and confidence as you embrace this new chapter of your life.

Becoming a mother brings an avalanche of changes—physical, emotional, and social. Hormonal shifts, sleepless nights, and the demands of caring for a newborn are just the beginning. Add to that the weight of shifting relationships and the often-unspoken pressures of cultural, societal, and familial expectations, and it’s no wonder that many new moms feel overwhelmed. In fact, research shows that nearly 22% of women experience postpartum depression, and one in seven new parents struggles with postnatal anxiety. Even without these challenges, adapting to a baby’s unique needs is a demanding journey.

Every pregnancy, birth, and baby comes with its own set of experiences, whether you’re welcoming your first child or adding to your family. If any of this resonates with you:

• I want to feel deeply connected to my baby.
• I want this season of life to strengthen my relationship with my partner.
• I feel like I’m falling short trying to do everything perfectly.
• I want to thrive as a mother but don’t feel like I am.
• I need someone to understand and support me.

… then counseling might be the right next step for you.

Therapy designed for mothers provides a compassionate space to navigate the overwhelm and pressures of early parenthood while helping you embrace and enhance this transformative phase of life.

Becoming a mom is a beautiful, life-changing experience, but it’s also filled with emotional and mental adjustments. If you’re feeling drained, uncertain, or even disconnected, you’re not alone—it’s okay to feel this way. Therapy for new moms offers a safe space to explore these feelings, whether you’re facing everyday challenges or navigating major transitions in parenthood.

At Barton Creek Counseling, I'm here to support you through this journey. I'm passionate about helping new mothers thrive, not just survive. Parenthood isn’t something you have to navigate alone, and I'm here to ensure that the beginning of your journey is as positive and fulfilling as possible. I meet you where you are, helping you identify your unique challenges and providing tools to overcome them. Using focused, practical approaches, we’ll work together to build your confidence, find balance, and create space for joy in your new role.
