If you:

often feel angry, anxious or overwhelmed which turns into snapping at your kids/spouse followed by intense guilt
struggle with a perpetual sense of failure (like when your kid has a tantrum and it feels like you did something wrong)
find it challenging to set boundaries and express your needs without guilt (like when your MIL keeps doing the thing you asked her not to but it doesn’t feel worth it to say anything)
put everyone else’s needs before your own and then feel resentful when you can’t even muster energy for a shower
worry you’re messing up your kids when a teacher tells you your child ran out of the classroom screaming
You’re not alone. And I can help.

Just because you feel like a failure, doesn’t mean you’re failing.

About Allie:

Hi, I’m Allie Kidd. I’m a mom and therapist working with folks in OH and NY. I provide online EMDR therapy and intensives for moms. Moms I work with often describe themselves as anxious, irritable and burned out from the non-stop grind of being a parent and juggling responsibilities. But here’s the thing: this pattern of always trying to be the best and do the best isn’t new. You may have grown up believing that the only way you can get respect and appreciation was by doing and producing.

Like me, you probably were the hero of your family, the weight of the expectations were on your shoulders. Getting good grades, getting into a “good” school, being helpful, and generally having a positive attitude was how you learned to navigate the world and feel worthy. Living up to others’ expectations is understandable when the rest of the family has their own shit to deal with. The problem is that in motherhood, we keep trying to fill that hero role and be the best. But the result we’re looking for (feeling like we’re valued and appreciated) never comes.

It took me time and therapy to feel worthy on my own, as I am, without having to always be “on” or living up to someone else’s version of great. Now, it’s my passion to help other moms feel enough as they are.
