Emily Weeks, LCSWA

If you’re carrying the weight of trauma, lying awake at night replaying the past, or feeling like motherhood has swallowed up pieces of who you are, you don’t have to go through it alone.

I work with adults who feel stuck in painful cycles, disconnected from themselves, or exhausted from trying to hold it all together.

Some of you may be living with the lasting impact of childhood trauma, sexual assault, birth trauma, combat, or domestic violence.

Others are caught in attachment struggles—repeating the same patterns in relationships, fearing abandonment, or finding it hard to trust yourself or others.

Many new moms love their babies deeply, but feel overwhelmed, anxious, or lost in the demands of caring for everyone else.

Trauma can leave lasting wounds.
Attachment struggles can keep you in painful cycles.
Motherhood can stretch you thin.
Sleep struggles can drain your strength.

You deserve a place to lay this down and begin finding your way back to yourself.

What We Can Work On Together

Right now, you may feel:

Stuck in cycles you can’t seem to break

Lonely in postpartum, wondering if you’ll ever feel like yourself again

Learn to manage anxiety, depression, and overwhelm with tools that work

Therapy won’t erase your story.

But it can help you reclaim your voice, your strength, and your hope.
