The Distance Between You Keeps Growing
It’s a Sunday morning. Coffee’s going, the kind of morning that should feel easy.
And then something small happens, a comment, a tone, nothing really, and suddenly you’re in it again.
You don’t even want to fight. You’re so tired of fighting. But somehow you’re in it anyway.
Later, when it’s quiet, you don’t talk about it. You just move around each other, careful, like there’s something fragile on the floor you’re both trying not to step on.
Stuck in Patterns You Can’t Seem to Break
You can’t always point to why. There’s no big thing happening right now, but you still don’t feel settled.
You react to things in ways that catch you off guard, and afterward you’re left wondering where that came from.
You second-guess yourself constantly. You make yourself smaller in rooms, in conversations, in relationships, and you’re not even sure when that became your default.
You keep bumping into the same patterns. Different situation, same feeling.
And you’re starting to wonder if this is just who you are, or if something else is going on.
The Part of Motherhood Nobody Talks About
Everyone keeps asking if you’re happy. And you are, you think.
But you’re also not sleeping, not recognizing your body, not sure who you are outside of this new role that arrived without a manual.
You scroll through photos of other mothers who look like they’re glowing and wonder what you’re missing.
You feel guilty for not feeling better. And then guilty for feeling guilty. And then too tired to feel anything at all.
It doesn’t have to stay this way.
No matter how heavy things feel right now, there is a way forward.
You can feel at ease in your own skin, trust yourself, and create connections that feel safe and fulfilling.
Life can be more joyful, meaningful, and lighter. Change is possible, and you don’t have to face it alone.

Trauma and Couples Therapist
Hi, I’m Shterna.
I’m no stranger to the human experience and the highs and lows that come with it. I know healing occurs through connection to your inner world, the people who matter to you, and your sense of purpose.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the idea that we all have the capacity for growth when we feel safe, seen, and supported.
If you’re ready to explore your inner world, rediscover yourself, and build more meaningful connections, I would love to support you on your journey.
