Therapy for Trauma Therapy for Moms in Marietta, GA
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
Struggling to feel safe in your body, trust your instincts, and stop carrying the weight of your past while showing up for everyone else?
I work with moms carrying the weight of birth trauma or unexpected birth experiences, along with old childhood wounds that resurface in motherhood. You might notice flashbacks, intrusive memories, anxiety, or a sense of being “off” even in moments that should feel joyful. Therapy can help you process these experiences, calm the mental and emotional chaos, and start reclaiming a sense of safety, self, and peace in your life and parenting.
Trauma doesn’t care what kind of mother you want to be—or how hard you're trying to heal..
Trauma in motherhood isn’t just a single moment you survived—it’s the way your body and mind keeps holding onto the pain long after the chaos should’ve faded. Maybe your birth was terrifying or out of your control. Maybe infertility, loss, or medical trauma left scars no one talks about. Or maybe it’s the relentless, low-key panic that no one warned you about—the kind that steals your sleep and fills your mind with “what ifs.”
And just when you think you’ve found your footing, your own childhood wounds come roaring back—old fears, patterns you swore you’d never repeat, and that crushing guilt that you’re not doing enough. You want to parent differently. But when you’re exhausted, triggered, and swimming in self-doubt, even taking a deep breath can feel impossible.
Here’s the truth: you’re not broken—you’re just carrying too much.
Therapy isn’t about fixing you. It’s about making space to unpack the pain, process the patterns, and finally begin healing on your terms. Using powerful tools like EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, we’ll work together to calm your nervous system, untangle the old wounds, and rewrite the story you’ve been living.
Because you deserve more than just surviving motherhood—you deserve peace, power, and a deeper connection to yourself in the middle of the mess.

WHY WORK WITH ME?
Birth trauma and childhood wounds can linger long after the moments themselves. You may love your child fiercely, but flashbacks, intrusive thoughts, or emotional triggers can make parenting feel heavy, stressful, or isolating. Healing isn’t about “getting over it”—it’s about reclaiming your sense of safety, trust, and self in the midst of motherhood.
Therapy with me is a space to process trauma safely, understand the patterns that keep old wounds active, and start feeling grounded again. Together, we’ll explore both the birth-related experiences and childhood experiences shaping your present, helping you navigate parenting, relationships, and life with more clarity, calm, and confidence.

I’m not here to minimize your experiences or hand you quick fixes. I’ll sit with you in the process, help you navigate the triggers, and give you tools that actually work in real life.
