Therapy for Identity Shift in Marietta, GA
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
Struggling with feeling invisible, stretched too thin, and disconnected from who you were?
I work with moms who are exhausted from juggling expectations, responsibilities, and the parts of themselves they feel they’ve lost. Therapy can help you process the grief of this identity shift, reconnect with who you are, and start finding balance—so you can stop just surviving and start feeling like yourself again, even as a mom.
Feeling unrecognizable in motherhood and wondering who you even are anymore..
Your reflection in the mirror feels unfamiliar. The hobbies, energy, and confidence that once felt natural are buried under diapers, sleepless nights, and a nonstop to-do list. Motherhood is amazing, but it reshapes you in ways you didn’t expect, and it’s normal to feel a little lost in the process. Some days, you catch yourself wondering if the person you were before motherhood is even real anymore.
You notice it in the quiet moments—the few minutes you carve out for yourself that feel heavier than restful. The friends you used to call, the activities that brought you joy, even simple routines—all replaced by endless responsibilities and the pressure to keep everyone else afloat. Underneath it all, there’s a subtle grief you might not have anticipated. It’s not about the baby; it’s about missing pieces of yourself, and the ache that comes from realizing your life has shifted so dramatically.
Inside, there’s a constant tug-of-war. Part of you wants to cling to who you were, while another part is trying to figure out who you need to be now. Every choice, compromise, and moment spent prioritizing someone else’s needs over your own feels like a small erosion of self. And even though you’re “doing it all,” there’s a quiet, nagging sense that something essential has been lost along the way.

WHY WORK WITH ME?
Motherhood can change everything about who you are—your priorities, routines, relationships, and even your sense of self. You’re juggling responsibilities, expectations, and endless tasks, and it can leave you feeling unmoored, unseen, or disconnected from the person you used to be.
Therapy with me is a space to pause, reflect, and start reconnecting with yourself. We’ll explore the changes motherhood has brought, untangle the tension between who you were and who you’re becoming, and create practical ways to reclaim yourself in your everyday life.
Why me? Because I specialize in helping moms navigate the shifting sense of self that comes with motherhood. I’ll help you:
Reconnect with the parts of yourself that feel buried under responsibilities and expectations
Rediscover your confidence, energy, and passions in ways that fit your current life
Navigate the tug-of-war between who you were and who you’re becoming.
I’m not here to offer quick fixes or surface-level advice. I’ll sit with you in the uncertainty, help you make sense of what’s changed, and provide tools to reclaim your sense of self while honoring your role as a mom.
