Motherhood is HARD,
Even when you do everything RIGHT.
Moms of Young Children
Parenting young children often ends up teaching us more about ourselves than it does them - we have less patience than we expected, it’s more difficult than expected and we catch ourselves doing things our parents did, that we hated.
But this time is fleeting and special. You can have a great relationship with your child. It is also an opportunity for growth and to show up the way you want to.
Emily helps moms feel more confident as parents. With experience as a parent coach, a child therapist and being a mother to twins, she can relate to all mothers’ stories. She specializes in working with moms to decrease anxiety, improve depression symptoms, and increase their sense of confidence and ability to remain calm when children push buttons. Emily also help moms with communication and set better boundaries with children.

Irritability and Rage: Flying off the handle at little things.
Insomnia: It’s normal to sleep less with a new baby, but if a mother has not slept at all in a 24 hour period, seek help immediately. and are at risk for postpartum psychosis.
