Feeling Overwhelmed as a Pregnant or Postpartum Mom in San Diego? You’re Not Alone — Therapy For Pregnant + Postpartum Women Can Help
Being a mom in San Diego sounds like a dream — but why does it still feel so hard?
You’ve got the sunshine, the beach walks, the playgrounds in every neighborhood. And yet… you’re exhausted. You’re snapping at your kids, losing patience with your partner, and secretly Googling “why am I such an angry mom?” during nap time.
If you feel like everyone around you is soaking up the “amazing parts of motherhood” while you're drowning in laundry, guilt, and mental load — I want you to know something: you are not failing. You are doing too much without enough support. I created Therapy For California Moms was created to support you during this season of Motherhood!
Motherhood here might look picture-perfect on the outside, but it’s often isolating, overstimulating, and emotionally draining. Especially if you're navigating postpartum changes, career pressure, or just the sheer weight of carrying everyone else.
Why So Many San Diego Moms Are Secretly Struggling
Even in a beautiful place like San Diego, many moms feel:
Lonely, even when surrounded by people
Burned out from doing everything for everyone else
Anxious about whether they’re doing motherhood “right”
Disconnected from their partner, their friends — even themselves
Guilty for wanting space or rest
You might look around and wonder, "Why does everyone else seem fine?" But here’s the truth: many moms in San Diego are silently overwhelmed — they’re just hiding it behind beach days and Instagram posts.
What Therapy Can Do for You
Therapy isn’t about fixing you — because you’re not broken.
It’s about creating space just for you in a world that expects you to be everything for everyone else.
Whether you're deep in the postpartum haze, struggling to juggle parenting and work, or simply feeling like you've lost yourself in motherhood, therapy offers:
A space to exhale and finally be honest
Tools to manage anxiety, guilt, and overstimulation
Support to process birth, identity changes, and relationship stress
Permission to stop “holding it all together” and just be human
