As parents, we often want to fix, guide, and protect.
But sometimes, the most powerful thing we can do is observe — until it starts affecting their social, academic, or home life.
That’s when support becomes essential. 🕊️

You’ll know therapy is working when these things start happening…

1️⃣ You start to catch your inner critic mid-sentence.
Instead of spiraling, you pause and get curious.
You begin to ask, “Where did that voice come from?” rather than “What’s wrong with me?”
It’s not about silencing the critic — it’s about noticing it with awareness.

2️⃣ It feels less important that every emotion “makes sense.”
You stop overanalyzing how you feel and start allowing it.
Sadness, anxiety, anger — they’re no longer problems to fix but signals to understand.
You begin to realize emotions are messengers, not enemies.

3️⃣ Saying “no” becomes a little less stressful.
You stop seeing boundaries as rejection and start seeing them as self-respect.
You understand that saying “no” isn’t about pushing people away — it’s about honoring your energy and your needs.

4️⃣ You recognize a pattern before it plays out.
Instead of “Ugh, I did it again,” you start thinking, “This feels familiar — what if I try something different this time?”
That moment of awareness is growth in action.

5️⃣ You stop outsourcing your worth.
You find yourself looking inward for validation instead of waiting for others to confirm you’re enough.
You stop chasing external approval — because you start feeling it within.

Therapy progress doesn’t always look dramatic.
Sometimes it’s a quieter mind, a softer inner voice, or a moment of self-awareness that changes everything.

The inner critic can be loud — sometimes so familiar that we don’t even notice it anymore.

The first step to quieting it isn’t fighting back — it’s noticing.
Noticing how it speaks, when it shows up, and how it makes you feel.

Once you recognize its voice, you can start to create distance.
You can say, “I see you — but I won’t let you speak to me like that anymore.”

🕊️ Awareness creates choice.
And choice is the beginning of change.

Many women wonder if medications are safe during pregnancy. 🕊️
The truth is: we always need to weigh the risks of medication against the risks of untreated depression or anxiety for both mother and baby.

No two pregnancies are the same — and no one should face these questions alone.

If you’re experiencing significant symptoms of depression or anxiety during pregnancy, please know support is available. You don’t have to carry this on your own.
