Therapy for motherhood in Houston, Texas and virtually across TEXAS
Helping moms find balance, feel empowered, and live MEANINGFULLY
I help overwhelmed moms feel less alone, experience more joy, AND FEEL MORE CONFIDENT in themselves without sacrificing who they are. My clients struggle as you do. Despite being smart, high achieving, courageous women, life is hard.
MAYBE YOU…
Feel ashamed asking for help
Because isn’t motherhood supposed to be magical and instinctual? Sure, you may have heard parts of motherhood are hard. But no one could have prepared you for the mental and physical exhaustion that comes with trying to keep a tiny human alive (even if it’s not your first) and having to put aside your own needs.
Feel overwhelmed with your emotions
You may find yourself feeling overwhelmed, sad, irritable, anxious, guilty, disconnected and insecure. Motherhood is not what you imagined it would be. You question every decision you make and often worry about doing something wrong or, if and when, things will get easier.
Struggle to remember who you were before kids
You can’t recognize yourself anymore among the constant battle to prioritize self-care amidst the chaos. And let’s not forget the body image struggles. Your feelings of inadequacy get in the way of the life you want in so many ways. You aren’t the kind of woman you want to be. You feel like you’re failing as a mother, partner, sister, daughter, or friend. And your confidence at home and at work is tanking.
Feel guilty for not feeling more excited about motherhood.
You find yourself worrying that things will always feel this hard and will never get better. And it feels pretty certain like you are never going to feel like yourself again. The feelings of guilt and shame felt too intense.
But there is hope. Like my clients, you deserve to feel joy in your life and to enjoy motherhood. Finding a sense of calm and peace is not out of your reach.
If you want to start feeling like yourself again, I’d love to help you get there. Schedule a free consultation call now. You deserve support. I can help.
Hi, i’m Dr. jEANNINE taMEZ. clinical psychologist & POSTPARTUM EXPERT
You do not have to walk this journey alone.
I’ll help you through this process, tailoring each step to your unique needs and circumstances. Starting therapy is a courageous choice, and it’s a testament to your strength. My approach to navigating the ups and downs that come with motherhood comes from a place of compassion, hope and empowerment. I’ll meet you wherever you are on your journey and offer support, understanding, and a roadmap to help you emerge stronger.
Here’s how I can help:
My approach to therapy is integrative and collaborative.
I’m trained in a wide range of treatments and work from an evidence-based framework. In other words, I utilize therapy interventions that have been scientifically proven to work.
Some of my theoretical influences include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based therapy. I tailor treatment given your needs, style, and journey. I also see you as the expert in your life and will check in with you about how you feel therapy is progressing.
Let’s make therapy simple.
