Therapy for feeling like you’re alone and no one understands
There’s a kind of loneliness that sneaks in after becoming a parent — the kind that doesn’t always make sense on paper. You might be surrounded by people, even well-meaning support, and still feel like no one really gets what you’re going through. It can feel like you’re in a different world than the one everyone else is living in, like your needs are invisible or your struggles too hard to explain. When you’re constantly giving to a tiny human, it can feel like there’s no room left for you.
therapy for new parents
Many new parents feel isolated, even when they’re not physically alone. The demands of caring for a newborn can make it hard to maintain social connections, leaving you feeling adrift in your experience. When people don’t seem to understand, feelings of loneliness can deepen, leading to self-doubt or even resentment. This disconnect can make it difficult to express your needs or find the support you crave.

Together, we’ll explore these feelings of loneliness and develop ways to build a support system that meets your needs. I’ll help you develop practical and emotional tools to help you reconnect with others, manage feelings of isolation, and recognize the strength you bring to parenting.
