Did you know that your brain literally shrinks when you become a mom? Talk about mom brain … but literally!

Moms’ gray matter decreases so the brain can become more efficient at interpreting their baby’s needs and emotions, and these changes can last two years postpartum.

So you might be better able to understand what your baby needs based on their cues and facial expressions, but you might not be able to remember why you walked into a room.

Try not to be too hard on yourself postpartum. Your brain has literally shrunk!

Let me first say I’m not a fan of New Year’s resolutions with grand plans and high expectations but I don’t mind having something that will help me reset and focused throughout the year so each year I pick one word that I come back to this year that word is maybe maybe will give me a moment to pause and think it will help me think about what I’m committing to what I’m participating in what do I want to do with my time? Where do I want to spend my energy and slow myself down just enough to think about it so the next time someone asked something of me my first thought will be maybe. #2026

It’s hard making decisions right now and there is no perfect decision. Trying to make the perfect one can actually make us feel paralyzed. We can make the good enough one. What is the information I know? What do I have in my control? Make the decision. Move forward.

Happy holidays to you and yours from all of us at Centimano Counseling! We’re taking this time to rest and spend time with loved ones. We hope you’re able to rest, too. It’s okay if the holidays don’t feel merry. It’s okay if you spend some time by yourself instead of socializing. It’s okay if you’re not okay. 💛

I don’t know about you, but this year has simultaneously flown by and crawled by. It’s been complicated and hard, and parts of it have been wonderful. What has it been like for you?

Before the end of the year, take a moment to reflect on all you’ve done and how much you mean to the people around you. We hope you know: Whatever you’ve done or haven’t done, it is enough. YOU are enough.

We’ve said this before, and we’ll say it again: Rest is a right. Rest is a need.                                        ...

Tiffany has been working in mental health for 10 years. She was drawn to the profession because of her passion for working with people who were surviving traumatic grief. Her practice experience has included hospital crisis response for domestic violence centers, running support groups, and individual therapy for grief/loss, trauma, parenting, and relationship concerns. Tiffany most enjoys working with women and their families as they navigate all facets of the transition to parenthood.

Tiffany began specializing in Perinatal Mental Health in 2019, with the creation of Centimano’s group therapy program. As Group Program Director, she works diligently to create spaces for women to come together in mutual support to deepen their own understanding of their experiences. She has a passion for facilitating groups that allow stories to be told, education to be shared, and communal support to facilitate the healing process.

In 2009, two postpartum mothers died by su***de and rocked the Kansas City perinatal community. Meeka wrote the words below in response to that time. Her words were meaningful then, and they are meaningful now.

She wrote:

Be bold in your own life. Call the doctor with an open mind and a willingness to consider medical treatment. Muster the courage to pick up the phone and call the therapist you don’t know who may be able to help you learn to cope, reflect on the past and find hope in your future. Consider a support group even if you think it isn’t for you. And reach out to people who love you. There is hope you cannot see.

Centimano Counseling is here for you if you are struggling. Please don’t hesitate to reach out anytime. No concern is too small.
