🌿 Motherhood in Laguna Beach Looks Perfect from the Outside — But You’re Struggling Inside

Therapy for Moms in Laguna Beach, CA

From the outside, everything looks picture-perfect. You live in one of the most beautiful places in California. You’ve got the stroller-friendly walks on PCH, your toddler plays barefoot in the sand, and the people around you assume you’re thriving.

But the truth?

You're barely holding it together.

🌊 You're tired of pretending it’s fine.

Motherhood in Laguna Beach comes with its own kind of pressure — the pressure to appear calm, grateful, and together… even when you're crumbling inside. Maybe you’re juggling nap schedules, breastfeeding struggles, work emails, and keeping your relationship from falling apart — all while trying to smile at the moms you pass at Main Beach Park.

Behind the yoga pants and beachy waves, you feel:

• Irritable, touched out, and constantly overstimulated

• Disconnected from your partner or friends

• Guilty that this season isn’t as joyful as you thought it would be

• Confused by how alone you feel — even with people around

• Struggling with pregnancy, postpartum depression or postpartum anxiety and struggling to keep your head above water

You love your baby. You’re grateful for your life. But you’re exhausted, and you’re not sure how much longer you can keep going like this.

Hi, I’m Alexa 🌿

I’m a licensed therapist, mom of two, and founder of Therapy For California Moms. I specialize in helping high-achieving, emotionally drained moms feel like themselves again. I offer virtual therapy for moms all across California, including Laguna Beach, who are done pretending they're fine. My work is warm, real, and judgment-free. I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed by motherhood, and I’m here to support you through the messiest, most emotional parts of it — with compassion and care.

🌿 This is where therapy can help.

If you're a mom in Laguna Beach — whether you're navigating the early weeks postpartum or dealing with the emotional load of motherhood years in — therapy gives you the space to slow down and actually feel supported.

Therapy with me isn’t about generic advice or “mom hacks.”
It’s a space just for you — to exhale, reflect, and feel like yourself again.

You don’t have to do it alone.

As a licensed therapist who specializes in maternal mental health, I work with high-achieving, emotionally intelligent moms who are tired of pretending they’re fine.

My clients are often the ones their friends go to for advice — but secretly, they’re the ones struggling the most.

In therapy, we talk about:

• The resentment building in your relationship

• The mental load you carry that no one else sees

• The identity crisis of trying to be “everything for everyone”

• The judgment you feel from your own mom or in-laws about how you’re parenting

• The fear that you’re messing up your child, even though you’re doing your absolute best

And we work together — gently, honestly, and without judgment — to help you feel more like you again.

🌴 If you're in Laguna Beach, therapy can fit your real life.

Everything I offer is virtual, which means:

• No traffic up the 133 or down Coast Highway

• No scrambling to find a sitter

• Just a quiet moment for yourself, from the comfort of your home

Whether you're in Laguna Beach, Newport Beach, Irvine, or anywhere in Orange County, therapy can work around your life — not the other way around.

✨ Let’s make space for you again.

You don’t have to keep pushing through.
You don’t have to wait for things to get “bad enough.”
And you definitely don’t have to do this alone.

If you’re a mom in Laguna Beach and you're ready to feel more grounded, supported, and like yourself again — therapy is a really good place to start.
