lt’s Time to Enjoy Yourself
and Life with Kids
Therapy for Women in Alberta, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick
During Pregnancy, Postpartum and Beyond
This should be the happiest time in your life.
Having children is what you’ve always wanted.
This is the life you dreamed of; a loving husband, the ability to devote yourself to motherhood and spend time nurturing your baby.
And now, you’ve finally reached your goal.
But something is wrong.
You feel empty, sad, and exhausted.
Anxiety and worry are your constant companions.
This is not how it was supposed to be.
Things have been harder than you ever expected.
The constant pile of laundry, the endless mountain of dirty diapers, the sleepless nights; it’s all so overwhelming.
Tasks that never gave you any trouble before now take great effort.
It feels like everything has become a struggle.
And there’s no one who can relate to you. You feel all alone.
“Maybe there is something wrong with me.”
A little voice in your head is telling you that you’re inadequate.
And that you’ll never be good enough for your baby, your husband, or anyone.
Your dream is becoming a nightmare.
Things can be better with therapy.
Imagine waking up one morning and feeling like no matter what the day throws at you, you can handle it.
Moving through the day, you get to appreciate all the tiny moments of happiness that life with a baby brings. And get outside, connect with your friends, and do the chores. Get a sense of accomplishment.
Best of all, you even get a chance to enjoy embracing your partner when they arrive home.
At the end of the day, you sigh with relief, knowing that you feel like yourself again.
