The transition into motherhood - what some psychologists call matrescence - asks us to grow in ways we rarely prepare for. Morning chaos, tantrums, crossed boundaries: stress and conflict in a home are inevitable.
As mothers, we're asked to be patient, present, and selfless, but few of us are taught how to stay regulated under the pressure of parenting. My work focuses on that gap - because regulation inside the parent changes the emotional climate of the home.
