When You Wonder if Motherhood Will Always Feel Like This

You may deeply love your child while feeling exhausted, anxious, tearful, or disconnected from the joy that motherhood can be. You might feel guilt for struggling or pressure to be grateful when things feel hard, or feel embarrassed for enjoying time apart. You may also be yearning for a baby and feeling angry, doubtful, and discouraged. The weight of responsibility, expectations, and constant giving of yourself can quietly take its toll.


If this feels familiar, you are not alone — and you don't have to feel like this to be a good mom.

What Is Maternal Mental Health?

Maternal mental health therapy supports emotional wellbeing during pregnancy, postpartum, and throughout motherhood. This also includes women who are pursuing motherhood and experiencing infertility, secondary infertility, or other difficulties in growing their family and caring for their health.


Many women seek therapy when anxiety, sadness, irritability, or identity shifts begin affecting daily life, relationships, or faith. Support in therapy offers space to be honest, human, and held.

What Healing Can Look Like

You may begin feeling less alone, more emotionally steady, and better able to rest. Over time, you’ll develop better coping skills to handle stress and improve your emotional well-being. You might find that you’re able to enjoy motherhood more, connect better with your baby, and rediscover parts of yourself that have been lost along the way.


Growth happens gradually, shaped by care, reflection, and support.
