Postpartum & Motherhood Counseling in Dallas, Houston & Across Texas and Florida
When you’re expected to be grateful — but you’re still trying to find space to be human.
You’re doing everything you can in a world that celebrates motherhood — but rarely talks about how hard it can be.
They told you to be grateful. To smile through the ache. But no one prepared you for how easy it can be to stop recognizing yourself.
You deserve room to be more than just “mom.”
You’re running on empty - and questioning yourself.
It’s early evening, and you’ve already given everything you have. You just need a moment to sit down — but there isn’t one.
You’re making dinner while holding a crying child. The sound feels like it’s inside your head. Your shoulders are tight, your body heavy, your patience thinner than you want it to be.
All you want is a pause — a minute where no one needs you.
“I just need a break.”
And almost immediately, guilt follows.
You start wondering how much you can really handle — whether other moms are built for this in a way you’re not. Everyone else seems to be managing just fine.
So you push through. Because that’s what you’re supposed to do.
By the time the day slows down, you’re exhausted.
Not just physically. But emotionally.
And you weren’t meant to handle this alone.
Hi, I’m Jennifer.
I’m a licensed counselor serving women in Texas and Florida, specializing in postpartum and motherhood counseling.
I work exclusively online — so you can show up as you are, without arranging childcare, commuting across town, or holding it all together in a waiting room.
In our work together, I bring a calm, grounded presence to help you slow the spiral, untangle the guilt, and make sense of what you’ve been carrying.
You don’t have to be in crisis to reach out. You just have to be tired of doing this alone.
What Begins to Shift
It’s not dramatic.
It’s subtle.
You don’t snap as quickly.
The noise still happens — but it doesn’t feel like it’s inside your chest.
You notice irritation rising, and there’s more space before you react. You breathe.
You feel more patience — with yourself, with your kids, with the moment in front of you. You don’t spiral into guilt as fast.
The evenings aren’t perfect.
But they don’t feel as sharp.
And slowly, you begin to recognize yourself again —
not the exhausted version,
but the one who was always still in there.
You’re Not Too Late — And You Don’t Have to Keep Waiting
Most moms don’t reach out right away. They push through. They tell themselves it will pass. They promise they’ll look into support next week — when things calm down.
But things rarely calm down on their own. There’s always another feeding, another load of laundry, another long evening.
And underneath it all, there’s often a quieter hesitation:
Do I even have time for this?
What if I can’t actually change?
What if talking to someone doesn’t help?
If you’re reading this at the end of a long day — or in the middle of the night while everyone else is asleep — that matters.
You don’t have to be at the end of your rope. And if you are, you don’t have to stay there.
You just have to be willing to stop carrying it alone.
Six months from now, you could still be bracing through the evenings. Or you could be breathing a little easier.
You don’t have to figure everything out tonight. But you can choose not to keep waiting.
How We Begin
When you reach out, we start with a free 20-minute phone consultation. It’s simply a conversation — a chance for you to share what’s been feeling heavy and for us to see if this feels like the right fit.
From there, we’ll meet virtually — giving you support without adding more to your plate. You don’t have to arrange childcare or drive anywhere. You can show up from your couch, your car, or the quietest room you can find.
We move at a pace that feels manageable. This doesn’t have to be complicated.
You just have to begin — and we’ll take it from there.
