The name “This Too Therapy” is twofold (haha)

It encompasses two belief systems that help me stay grounded when everything around me seems new and uncertain (ahem - new motherhood). For one, it’s the idea that “this too shall pass”. Everything we experience is temporary - the good, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful - it will all pass. Every life transition is nothing more than a moment in time.

Which brings me to belief system #2 - that two things can be true at the same time. Multiple emotions, realities, and truths can all coexist. The power of the “and”. This…and this, too.

So, yes, this phase of new motherhood with a high-needs baby is nothing more than a moment in time, a small piece of the overall picture - but that doesn’t mean it can’t feel huge in that moment. It can feel huge, scary, and overwhelming - because it is.

AND…it will pass.

But that doesn’t mean you just have to sit around in your baby’s room in the dark and wait for it to pass. And you definitely don’t have to go through it alone.

This Too Therapy is a place for moms with high-needs babies and kiddos to feel safe. To feel heard. To feel understood.

Because I get it. I know the anxiety. I know the guilt. I know the isolation. I know the sleep deprivation.

And I also know the love. I know the admiration for this tiny human in your arms. I know the gratitude. And I know you are a good mom. The best mom, actually - for your baby.
