Maybe it’s the last baby making me sentimental but to be honest, I think I’ll probably miss this season of partially decorated trees one day. ☺️

Today is International Maternal Mental Health Day and also the 3rd day of Maternal Mental Health Week.
Bring to mind 5 women in your life who have given birth. Statistically speaking, at least one of those 5 women developed a perinatal mental health condition during pregnancy or postpartum. I am not afraid to say that I am 1 in 5. Let’s break the stigma and talk about maternal mental health.
From :
“Worldwide, 1 in 5 women will experience a perinatal (pregnancy and postpartum) mental health condition such as postpartum anxiety or postpartum depression.
Other perinatal mental health conditions include postpartum obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), postpartum PTSD, bipolar mood disorders, and postpartum psychosis.“

Some parenting unpopular opinions I’ve been having on the topic of making parenting generational changes & a whole lot of perfectionism. May you remember that committing to the work and making repairs after ruptures will take you far as a parent.. perfectionism not needed.

I think humans have grappled with the question of “why?” since the beginning of our existence.
My opinion: We were never made to have the answers to big existential questions like “why?” or “what is going to happen?” Our healers, leaders, heroes, advocates, teachers, & counselors can only do so much.
I don’t know about you but lately I’ve been tired of myself, my answers, my direction, my opinions. At one point this last year, I became desperate to find something bigger than myself or this world and that’s when spirituality found me again.
Spirituality is the belief that there is something greater than you, this life and your day to day existence. Spirituality does not always mean religion but many people find spirituality through religion. Spirituality can provide meaning and understanding to questions like “why?” when nothing in this world can. Spirituality is big and grand enough to take on these questions every time- without pressure, fatigue or burnout.
Spirituality may look like religion but it can also be the feeling that comes from looking at pictures of our solar system- noticing how tiny Earth is in comparison. It can be the feeling you get from walking through nature, observing the wonder of flowers, trees and insects.
If you had to escape an unhealthy religious environment and haven’t reclaimed spirituality for yourself- consider what role spirituality could potentially offer you in this moment- a sense of community, peace , vastness, hope.. Whatever your version of spirituality is, may you consider getting curious and leaning into it during your next challenging season.

Our Story

I am a trauma-informed, attachment- based therapist in South Austin. I enjoy working with clients who are ready to move from post traumatic stress disorder to post traumatic growth and use tools such as EMDR, ACT, s*x therapy and mindfulness to help clients achieve this.
