Therapy + Support For Pregnant + Postpartum Women in Irvine, California 🌿
Stressed, Exhausted, + Stretched Thin? Therapy for Moms in Irvine, CA ✨
✅ You’re constantly running on empty — juggling tantrums, snacks, pickups, work, laundry, and somehow still expected to hold it all together.
✅ The mental load never stops, and neither do the endless decisions, invisible tasks, and emotional demands.
✅ Lately, everything feels heavier. You find yourself snapping at your partner over things that never used to matter. The connection feels gone, replaced by arguments, distance, and resentment. You miss feeling like a team, but now it’s like you’re living with a roommate.
✅ And beneath all of that, you’re just tired — of pretending you’re fine, of carrying it all alone, of never getting a minute to breathe.
✅ You don’t need to push through this on your own. Therapy can help you feel grounded, supported, and more like you again.
Irvine can feel like the perfect place to have kids. But if you're a mom here, it can feel like you’re constantly surrounded by unrealistic expectations and relentless pressure to keep up with everyone else. You’re supposed to maintain a healthy work-life balance. You’re supposed to efficiently cook healthy meals and attend to your kids every needs. You’re supposed to stay in shape and look great. You’re supposed to do it all with a smile on your face… even when you’re falling apart inside.
From the outside, it may look like you’re managing it all. But are you really?
✨ You’re feeling tired and anxious all the time . . . and struggling to sleep even when your baby (finally!) is
✨ You’re snapping at the people you love the most
✨ You’re grieving the version of yourself you barely remember
✨ You’re carrying the invisible weight of everyone else’s needs
Sound familiar? Do you feel like you’re a failure?
Well you’re not . . . but you’re also not a robot! You’re just doing way too much without enough support. Support you need and deserve. ✨
The Pressure to Be the Perfect Irvine Mom 🌿
Let’s be real: Irvine moms are no strangers to high expectations. While trying to balance work, motherhood, relationships, and the constant pressure to “do it all,” it’s easy to lose yourself in the chaos.
And when you finally slow down (if you ever do), you realize how much you're carrying inside—and how little space there is to actually process any of it.
Whether you're:
🌿 Navigating the emotional rollercoaster of pregnancy
🌿 Feeling untethered in the fog of postpartum anxiety or postpartum depression
🌿 Resentful from always being the default parent when challenges arise
🌿 Wondering when you stopped feeling like you
🌿 Transitioning from one to two kids and barely keeping your head above water
Therapy can help.
Hi, I’m Alexa—Therapist for Moms in Irvine and Across California 🌿
I’m Alexa, a licensed therapist, mom of two, and OC native who works virtually with moms all over California, including many in Irvine. I specialize in helping high-functioning, emotionally exhausted women who are ready to stop pretending they’re fine and are ready to start feeling actually supported.
In our work together, we can explore:
💚 Prenatal anxiety and postpartum mood changes
💚 Navigating grief and pregnancy after loss
💚 Burnout, resentment, and emotional overload
💚 Identity loss and the grief of motherhood
💚 Relationship shifts and boundary challenges
💚 Unrealistic pressure from friends, family, and even strangers
💚 The constant inner voice saying “you’re not doing enough”
You don’t have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Sometimes, just having one space that’s truly yours can change everything.
You’re Allowed to Take Up Space, Too 🌿
If you're a mom who's feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or just plain done, therapy offers a place to finally let the mask drop and focus on the real you. You deserve care that meets you where you are—without judgment, shame, or unrealistic expectations.
This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about helping you feel like you again.
Let’s Talk—You Don’t Have to Keep Doing This Alone 🌿
I offer online therapy for moms in Irvine and throughout California. My caseload is intentionally small so I can provide individualized, premium care personalized for each client. If you’re ready for support that centers you for once:
