Therapy for Moms in Laguna Beach, CA 🌊

Motherhood was supposed to feel joyful. Instead, you’re drowning in sleepless nights, endless decisions, and the invisible pressure to “enjoy every moment.” On the outside, everything looks fine — but inside, you feel lost, anxious, or like you’re barely hanging on.

Therapy can help you find your way back to yourself.

Why So Many Laguna Beach Moms Reach Out

Even in a community as beautiful as Laguna Beach, many women silently carry the weight of:

• 🌿 Postpartum depression that makes it hard to feel connected to your baby — or yourself.

• 🌿 Postpartum anxiety that keeps you awake at night, playing out worst-case scenarios.

• 🌿 Feeling judged by in-laws, parents, or other moms about the “right” way to parent.

• 🌿 Mom rage, irritability, or guilt that feels overwhelming and shameful.

• 🌿 The crushing mental load of remembering, managing, and planning everything for everyone.

If this sounds familiar, you don’t have to carry it alone.

How Therapy Helps

Therapy is your space to exhale and finally stop pretending everything is fine. Together, we’ll:

• Untangle the anxious thoughts that keep looping in your mind.

• Heal from the weight of postpartum depression and find joy again.

• Learn tools to calm your nervous system when anxiety or mom rage takes over.

• Rebuild your confidence so you feel like you again — not just “mom.”

• Create space for your needs, so you’re not constantly running on empty.

You don’t have to just survive motherhood. Therapy gives you a roadmap to feel steady, grounded, and connected again.
