Therapy for Moms Who Are Nurses, Doctors, and Healthcare Professionals
No matter how much you planned, all you really wanted was to bring your baby home and start building your life together.
But when you work in healthcare, nothing feels simple.
Regardless of your clinical role, you’re used to being the one who holds it together. You’re the calm one in the room. The one who takes care of everyone else. You’ve spent your career showing up for people on their hardest days.
Now you’re home with a newborn and suddenly everything feels different.
Whether you're a nurse, doctor, ultrasound tech, respiratory therapist, physical therapist, or work in another clinical role - you're used to long shifts, high-stakes decisions, and holding yourself together under pressure. But nothing prepared you for the emotional weight of becoming a mom.
You may find yourself torn between the career you worked so hard for and the baby who needs you in ways no patient ever did.
You may be running on no sleep, switching between day and night schedules, trying to make childcare work, and feeling like you’re always one step behind. You pass the baby back and forth with your partner. You count down the hours until your next shift. You worry about how you’ll manage pumping, call schedules, and exhaustion all at once.
Life as a healthcare mom looks different.
You care deeply about your patients.
You love your career.
And you’re exhausted.
You may feel pressure to “handle it” the way you always have. You may tell yourself that you’re trained for stress, that you’ve seen worse, that you should be able to manage this too. But this is different. This is personal. This is your heart walking around outside your body.
Clinical training doesn't prepare you for that.
Some days you feel confident and capable. Other days you feel overwhelmed, emotional, and unsure of yourself in ways you never expected.
And when other moms talk about flexible schedules or long maternity leaves, you quietly wonder how you're supposed to make any of this work.
You’re not failing.
You’re adjusting to one of the biggest transitions of your life.
I can help you find steadiness in the middle of constant change.
The responsibility. The long hours. The emotional load. The expectation that you'll just push through, at work and at home.
I provide therapy for healthcare worker moms navigating postpartum anxiety, burnout, identity shifts, and the emotional demands of both motherhood and medicine.
I can help you:
navigate the emotional transition into motherhood without leaving your identity at the hospital door
manage the anxiety, guilt, and overwhelm that come with caring for everyone — patients and baby alike
work through the pressure to push through when what you actually need is support
reconnect with yourself outside of your clinical role
You don't have to carry this alone.
You spend your career taking care of other people. You're allowed to need care too.
