About Clover and Bloom Counseling: Therapy for Mothers in TX
Pregnancy and parenthood are exciting, hopeful and often overwhelming and emotional times. There tend to be a lot of big feelings that come along with motherhood that you don't expect.
You didn't feel adequately prepared for all of the changes that motherhood brings. You may have had a challenging and unexpected birthing experience, a stay in the NICU, difficulty relating to your partner, sensory overwhelm in motherhood, or feel like you've lost yourself since becoming a parent.
Raising a family can bring up feelings about your own childhood and highlight how you want your child's experience to be different. Relationships change. Perfectionism may flare up. You may feel more emotions than usual.
It can feel impossible to meet every standard you set up for yourself. You care so much about your family. You want to do and to feel your best. It hasn't been as easy as social media and society show it is.
My clients are like you. They are successful, intelligent, loving, and caring people who usually have it all together, but who need someone to listen and support them through the universally stressful changes that parenthood brings.
Many of my clients are pregnant, first-time mothers, parents of preschoolers, or are adding a new little one to their existing family. They feel understandably concerned and apprehensive about these significant changes in their day-to-day life.
They care deeply about being a good parent and want to prepare and show up for their families and themselves as best they can. I help parents, helpers, and caregivers also remember to show up for themselves and treat themselves with compassion.
My clients are talented people who sometimes don't see how well they are truly doing. They are feeling eager, hopeful, unsure, and sometimes angry and frustrated about how their life has changed so drastically since becoming a parent. Priorities have shifted. Time is at a premium. Friendships may not be what they used to be.
Old wounds may resurface that they thought they had healed before. My clients love their kids, want to do their best, and also miss their life before parenthood. They could really use a compassionate counselor to walk with them and support them through this journey.
You are not alone.
Talking about it with a trained therapist can really help!
Pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood for mothers, fathers & caregivers are great times to start a relationship with a counselor who gets you, is an expert in parenting, child development, early childhood, and specializes in supporting perinatal (pregnancy and postpartum) counseling.
This is where I can help.
I am a registered play therapist ™(RPT™), and licensed professional counselor (LPC), perinatal therapist, long-time K-12 special education teacher, behavior specialist, school counselor, and mother who specializes in helping parents thrive in the early years of parenting.
I get it.
This is a big transition.
You are feeling stressed.
You don't feel your best.
You want to feel more joy and less overwhelm.
You don't have to do it alone.
I am here to help.
I help people feel more confident, capable, and calm in their roles as mothers, caregivers and parents.
If you want to feel more at ease as you move into this new phase of life, give me a call today. I'd love to help you get there.

Counseling for Pregnancy & Postpartum Parents
The pregnancy and post-partum period is a vulnerable, beautiful, challenging and transformative time for birthing people and their families. I have professional certifications and training to specifically support your mental health through Postpartum Support International (PSI) and 2020 MOM (recently renamed The Policy Center for Maternal Mental Health), The Karen Kleinman Postpartum Stress Center and PPHA of Texas.
Specialized Counseling for Preparing for Pregnancy & Parenthood
I've completed beyond the Advanced Training through Postpartum Support International (PSI) to help clients in the perinatal period (planning for pregnancy, giving birth & adjusting to life with a little one or multiples).
