Therapy for Burned Out Moms
Motherhood can be so overwhelming – therapy can help you find relief from burnout, release pent up mom rage, let go of lingering guilt and reclaim your sense of self.
Have you ever asked yourself,
'Is this all there is?'
You put your head down and powered through the infant, toddler, and preschool stages. Years of your time and energy have been spent taking care of everyone else.
Your kids are older now. Everyone says things are supposed to get easier. This is definitely not your experience.
Perhaps your children really don’t like each other, and daily interactions often give way to chaos. Your son might struggle in school, or your daughter has ongoing medical needs. You're expected to excel at work, at home and as a parent but you always feel like you're failing.
You know things need to change but you don't even know where to start.
You're exhausted.
You’re constantly feeling confused, frustrated or sad. After years of unrelenting focus on your family, you don’t recognize yourself. You feel trapped, constantly managing your family’s never-ending needs. It feels like there is never any time or space that’s just for you.
The truth? You desperately need relief.
And not just relief. If you’re honest with yourself, what you REALLY want is to
✔ Feel happier, less anxious, and less overwhelmed.
✔ Be seen, acknowledged, and appreciated for all that you do.
✔ Stop working so hard to keep everything together.
✔ Learn to prioritize yourself as much as you prioritize your family.
✔ Feel more connection, more balance & more joy.
The good news is that you’ve come to the right place. It’s my goal to help you remember that
you are more than just a mother and that you deserve to be a priority in your own life.
With warmth, curiosity, and compassion, I’ll help you explore ways that you can get more
of what you want and need in your life.

NEW TO THE IDEA OF MOM THERAPY?
Here’s What To Expect From The Therapy Process
1
Free Consultation:
Get To Know Me
We’ll start with a 15-minute call to discuss what you’re going through, what you’re looking for in therapy, and whether we’re the right fit. If you have any questions or doubts, I can address them so you feel comfortable and at ease moving forward.
2
Your First Session: Getting Started
Your first session is all about getting to know you - your struggles, your goals, and what you need most right now. Together, we’ll also discuss the best therapy plan for you, including how often we should meet to give you the right level of support.

On-Going Sessions:
A Time Just for You
Whether we meet weekly, biweekly, or on a personal schedule, each session is a dedicated time for you. You’ll have the chance to talk, vent, work through emotions, and explore solutions. Most importantly, you won’t have to figure it out on your own.

Experience Growth & Lasting Change
Over time, you're going to begin to feel lighter, calmer, and more in control of your life. You'll learn to set boundaries, feel more confident as a mom, and reconnect with yourself. My goal for you is always to help you create the life you want – one step at a time.

What is your fee for therapy and/or groups?My fee for individual psychotherapy is $260 for a 50-minute session. You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. Under California law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises

Can I see you in person? Do you offer telehealth/video visits?I see clients in person in my office in Noe Valley (San Francisco). I also offer telehealth to clients residing in California, Nevada and Florida.
-
Do you accept insurance?I am an out-of-network provider for psychological services. I am not currently on any insurance panels. If you have a PPO plan, you can pay me directly for your sessions. I will then provide you with a monthly superbill that includes the information your insurance needs to reimburse you. To determine your reimbursement, contact your insurance company to ask how many sessions your plan covers, whether it includes a deductible, what percentage your plan reimburses and what the usual and customary rate is. Check out this video if you have questions about how to use out-of-network insurance benefits.
-
How do you accept payment?I accept cash, check, credit card or Venmo at the time services are rendered.
-
What is your cancellation policy?Please give me at least 48 hours notice if you need to cancel your appointment. If you do not cancel your appointment within that time frame or don't show up, you'll be charged for the session.
-
Is therapy right for me?If you’re wondering whether therapy is right for you, consider this - if you’re overwhelmed, stretched too thin, questioning yourself constantly, or just feeling like something’s off - therapy can help. You don’t have to be in full-blown crisis to deserve support. You don’t have to have all the words for what’s hard. You just have to be willing to show up, even get a little messy, and say, “This isn’t working for me anymore.” If you’re craving space to be honest (without judgment), curious (instead of critical), and supported (without having to earn it), therapy might be exactly what you need.
