Counseling for Soulful Mamas
Counseling with Erin Leyba, LCSW, PhD
- Are you a mom giving so much that you are running on empty?
- Are you lonely and wishing for deeper connections or friendships?
- Is stress or the mental load impacting your sleep or mood?
- Are you dealing with fertility, pregnancy, or health challenges?
- Do you feel tired or frustrated by aspects of your child’s behavior, even though you love them dearly?
- Are you torn about or second-guessing parenting decisions?
- Are you coping with grief from the loss of a parent or loved one on top of everything else?
- Do you compare yourself to others who seem to “have it all figured out” and feel bad about it?
- Have some of your relationships with family and friends changed or become hard?
- Are you wanting to connect more with your kids, but find that stress or other things are getting in the way?
I see soulful moms who are committed to deepening their relationships with themselves, their partners, friends/family members, and children. They aren’t afraid to work through hard stuff, reflect, and grow to be the most present and alive that they can be. They are conscious thinkers who have never wanted to “just survive,” but rather thrive and live a magical, meaningful, connected life. They value having a compassionate and nonjudgmental space to be themselves.
