Parenting and Co-Parenting Support

Another day, another mound of chores and housework…

“What’s for dinner tonight?”

“Who’s picking up the kids?”

“How much time until they need to be picked up?”

“How will I get the laundry, the groceries, AND the dishes done?”

When was the last time you spoke to your co-parent/partner about these things without arguing?

This can’t be all there is to family life.

It can’t always be this messy.

Doubt about the future sets in as you wonder what will happen to your co-parenting relationship if this cycle never stops… or whether your marriage will even last.

You take a moment to think about what it would look like if you only had to connect at kid drop-offs – if you didn’t have to do the birthdays, graduations, weddings, and other events together where the tension was palpable to everyone in the room.

But that’s not possible… and it’s not what you want.

But change seems impossible!

Especially when the messages you get from the media have you questioning your every decision.

When you don’t know what to do, it’s natural to explode instead of exploring more deeply what’s going on.

And it’s not just you. You see your kids doing the same thing. It gives you pause, and it hurts.

You never imagined THIS would be how your home life turned out.

Let’s work together.

You want a different home life for you and your children. Well, you’ve come to the right place.

It IS possible to communicate your needs effectively and respectfully, all while feeling heard by your partner.

We’ll start by exploring how you feel leading up to the explosions or arguments. Where are the boundaries? Maybe it comes down to a single thing your partner or co-parent is saying to you that’s cutting deep. Let’s identify your triggers so you can be aware of them and de-escalate the situation before things tip over the ledge.

Cooking dinner, switching laundry, helping with homework, putting together toys… it can all be so overwhelming. Let’s work on ways to help you feel less stimulated and more grounded in your day-to-day life.

There might also be homework for you to try. Yes, I said homework! These are exercises and tools to help you become aware of what I talked about above. When you become aware of those triggers, you can make the small changes needed to create the home you’ve always dreamt of.

It all starts here…

Therapy can support you and your family. And it’s not always a one-size-fits-all: You can come alone, together, or at separate times.

Start creating the family life you want and deserve.
