Hey there!
I’m Krista
Licensed Professional Therapist, Parent Coach, Mom & Wife
No matter where you are on your parenting journey, feelings of overwhelm can arise.
I help expecting, new and experienced parents reduce their levels of anxiety, reflect deeper on their intentions in parenthood, and learn ways to advocate for their needs in this chapter of life.
Maybe….
anxiety has always been somewhat present in your life—-and maybe it’s even been a huge asset (hello high functioning stress!) But now, as a parent, it’s harder to manage, it’s feeling more like rage—-and you simply cannot ignore it.
the tools you used before to manage the stress spirals and heightened tension don’t seem to work anymore—-or it seems like you just don’t have any time to use them.
There is so much information on postpartum and parenting, and you find yourself scrolling and searching for answers. You feel unsure about what information to trust.
…..and, even when you find the answer you are seeking—-you can’t seem to be able to “do the thing” in the moment. This leaves you feeling frustrated!
You are desperate for help—but also have a hard time trusting others to help you.
You find yourself thinking, “being a parent just doesn’t feel like I thought it would.”
Working together, we will discover simple strategies to shift how you show up for this new chapter of life.
You will learn to observe yourself and your anxiety more closely.
You will learn ways to reduce the tension and feelings of being “on edge”
You will find ways to be more present and nurture yourself and your relationships.
You will feel validated for all the complicated feelings that have come up since becoming a parent
Discover new ways to nurture yourself during this time.
You will escape this overwhelm.
I can help guide you there.
I deliver therapy both in person at my office in Sandpoint, Idaho, as well as via HIPAA compliant zoom.
Taking the first step towards therapy can feel scary.
Reaching out and receiving help doesn’t mean you are flawed or failing as a mother.
It does mean you are a human navigating an incredible life transition—and you are reaching out to an expert in the space to receive the best possible care for you and your family. You are an incredible mother for that.
