As a wife or mom, you’re constantly spinning plates – and dropping at least one every day. Your time is consumed by schedules, appointments, messes, and managing everyone else’s needs, while your own stress and emotions go unaddressed. The mental load never lets up: remembering everything, being needed by everyone, and still feeling like it’s never enough. You’ve tried pushing through, making lists, telling yourself this is just a season, but the exhaustion always returns. A quiet fear sets in that this is simply who you are now: a woman with no space left for herself. What you want is steadiness, clarity, and room to breathe again. I work with overwhelmed mothers to uncover what’s actually draining their energy and why willpower alone keeps failing. Together, we identify hidden stressors, restore structure that supports your real life, and rebuild connection to your needs and identity. The focus is practical, relational, and designed to reduce overload, not add more to your plate. As responsibility becomes more sustainable, days feel calmer and more intentional. You respond instead of react, set boundaries without guilt, and show up with more presence in your relationships. Mornings feel grounded instead of rushed, and life opens up beyond constant caretaking. It’s time to rediscover yourself. Reach out today for a free consultation.

I specialize in working with anyone affected by addiction, family members of addicts, and anyone looking to grow and expand self-awareness. I am a certified addiction counselor. I am a certified brainspotting practitioner, which branches off of a trauma modality known as EMDR. I am a certified experiential specialist. I am an anger resolution specialist. I am also listed on the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD) State of Georgia site as a clinical evaluator. Addiction is a disease that often pushes us to go against our morals; this causes uncomfortable emotional states that we tend to want to avoid discussing. To begin healing, we must feel these emotions, and to feel the emotions, we need someone to process them with. I have personally experienced the darkness of addiction in my own life and strive to help people see their light!
