Is Being a Good Mom and Having a Fulfilling Career Supposed to be This Hard?
You were told your whole life that women don’t have to choose between career and family anymore, that it is possible to excel at work and be a supermom at home! But instead of feeling empowered and free to live the life you want, you feel completely drained at the end of each day, feeling like you have to choose between who gets your energy: your job or your family. To make matters worse, you are starting to resent your partner, who still has time to scroll on their phone or watch Netflix while you are stuck folding the laundry.
This Isn’t What You Imagined
You told yourself that you wouldn’t be the kind of wife who gives everything she has to her kids, with little leftover for her spouse. You never thought you would find yourself arguing with your partner over who is pulling more weight around the house, and hiding in the bathroom to get five minutes to yourself. The worst part is the guilt—the fear that you are not doing enough, not being a good enough mom or partner.
Most of my clients experiencing guilt and resentment are struggling to balance being a better parent to their kids than they had growing up with wanting a happy marriage and fulfilling career that isn’t burning them out. Therapy may be for you if:
-
You are struggling to remember what your marriage was like before kids
-
You can’t shut your brain off at night in order to sleep, despite feeling completely exhausted
-
Anger, guilt, and resentment seem to be your constant companions
-
You feel pulled in a million directions and don’t know how to handle the overwhelm anymore
-
You feel like no one really understands what you are going through, and your partner just doesn’t get it
It Doesn’t Have to be a Constant Struggle
My goal for my clients is to help you work through the things that are holding you back from being the mom and partner that you want to be, while also loving your career! I help smart, ambitious and stressed out women just like you let go of guilt and resentment so that they feel confident, balanced and thriving in ALL areas of their lives.
