Therapy for Moms
Motherhood can be such a joyful and stressful time in a woman’s life. Your expectations and your reality of motherhood may be very different from each other and every women’s journey is unique and different. Becoming a parent also triggers a lot of feelings and experiences from our own childhood. Even if you had what you consider to be a “picture perfect childhood” the pressures and experiences of being parent takes its toll. Maybe your childhood was less then ideal and now that you have had children of your own childhood memories keep impacting your ability to parent your children the way you always dreamed you would.
Motherhood is also often accompanied with never-ending to-do lists, overwhelming shame and guilt and complete neglect of your own needs. Our therapists, support moms everyday. In counseling, you will work through the challenges of motherhood, achieve a healthier life balance and find yourself again. Your never-ending to-do list doesn’t have to run your life.

PTSD/Trauma Therapy
At BPC, many of our therapists have extensive experience in working with trauma and PTSD. Our therapists have participated in trauma-focused training. In fact, we offer one of the most effective PTSD treatments around called EMDR. One thing we have learned from our experience in working with trauma is that everyone has experienced some degree of trauma in their lives. Trauma can be triggered by incredibly frightening events such as relational abuse, a serious car accident, or childhood abuse or neglect. It can also result from more chronic forms of stress such as emotional neglect, shame, and bullying. PTSD is also caused by grief, divorce, and unexpected life changes.
Symptoms of PTSD can include hypervigilance, anxiety, nightmares, flashbacks, depression, or feeling disconnected from others. Trauma treatment begins with a full counseling assessment. Afterward, our therapists will recommend a treatment plan to help you get unstuck and move forward with your life. In addressing one’s trauma, it is helpful to work with someone who understands how to navigate the emotions and memories that come up, helping you feel safe and empowered throughout the process. Our trauma therapy typically begins with a focus on gaining coping tools, mindfulness, an increase in self-awareness, and relaxation techniques. Next, we move on to treat meeting the trauma itself. We treat anxiety through EMDR, sand tray therapy, expressive therapies, and talk therapy. Trauma therapy is hard work, but with counseling healing is possible. With supportive, effective trauma treatment you can find calm, overcome your fear and move forward with your life.
