Online Therapy for moms in Florida
The perpetual needs of your children, feeding, laundering, cleaning, cooking things they won’t eat, changing diapers…all while balancing the needs of your home, yourself, and the pressures to be more present with our children. Parenthood can be difficult whatever your life circumstances are, but these days, parents seem more over-extended than ever and stressed to their maximum capacities. Therapists are finding more and more overwhelmed moms who are just trying to keep it all together under all the pressure.
A word for it: burnout.
If you’re a mom tending to the needs of young children (during a pandemic no less!), you know that the effects are real. Burnout is that feeling of complete emotional and physical exhaustion. It’s that sense that you’re running on empty and have nothing left in the tank. You might feel like your mothering responsibilities are mounting up with no end in sight. Often times overwhelmed moms come to online therapy for moms in Florida not realizing they have hit this point.
How to Recognize Burnout in Overwhelmed Moms
If you’ve been feeling stressed to the max and endlessly spread thin, that’s a pretty good sign that you’re experiencing burnout.
You might notice an overall sense of feeling like you have just nothing left to give. Feeling like you just can’t catch up, like you never feel rested or grounded, or like you’re overwhelmed by the responsibilities on your list are all indicators that it’s time to slow down.
Some mothers notice that they’re irritable or impatient with their partner or their children. Oftentimes, they explain that they’re not experiencing much joy anymore, because the feeling of being an overwhelmed mom is unbearable.
Others feel more emotional than usual and get weepy-eyed easily. All of these are great signs that you’re depleted. I mean hey, being a mom is tough. Your kids need a lot!
I think it’s also important to acknowledge that your day-to-day flow of life can be stressful—there are going to be times when your energy levels run low.
Are You Experiencing the Overwhelmed Mom Guilt?
I haven’t seen a mom or mom-to-be yet that hasn’t described some moment of shame or guilt. The insurmountable pressure leaves them feeling overwhelmed and discouraged.
I’m confident in saying you have an idea of how you’d like to be as a mother. An idea about how you should treat your kids. If you’re burned out, it’s even more challenging to show up the way you want to. You cannot be super overwhelmed mom and be pleased with your children constantly.
It’s important to learn to pay attention to when that little shameful voice sneaks in, telling you that you’re a bad mother. This is where I come in. Doing online therapy for moms in Florida helps you to learn when those negative thought processes are kicking in and how to redirect them.
Online Therapy for Moms in Florida
For many parents carving out time for a therapy session seems impossible. Online therapy opens up more possibilities to get the help you need. It can be done while nursing your baby, with a toddler under your feet, while you’re eating your lunch, and it doesn't matter whether or not you’ve showered this week. It’s a therapy that fits into your life, to better yourself, which is also better for your kids. If your kids are anything like mine, they feed off your energy and mimic the mental health modeled to them.
