EMDR Therapy for Moms in Chattanooga, tn

Heal your own wounds and become the parent you wish you had.

Being a good parent can be overwhelming.

It starts before you even open your eyes. As soon as your feet the floor (or before!) someone needs you, everyone needs YOU.

You feel guilty for not enjoying your life when you know you’ve been so blessed. But you just can’t do it all. You can’t take one more shirt-tug or tantrum, or you might just throw a tantrum yourself before you collapse into bed at night.

Then comes the shame: “Something must be wrong with me. Why can’t I just do the things? Why does this feel so hard?”

Other people don’t seem so easily overwhelmed by the things that bother you, but OMG can it all just stop please!?

There is more than one right way to be a mother.

It’s ok to not be able to do it all. Together we can help you:

  • Find strength to face the day
