Nurtured Roots Therapy
Specializing in pregnancy & postpartum
Charlie Helfgott, MS, LPC, PMH-C, NCC
Motherhood changes just about everything. As a fellow mom of two young children, I know firsthand how parenthood flips your world upside down—your identity, your relationships, even the way you think about yourself. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to figure it all out alone. Maybe you love being a mom but miss the freedom of your old life. Maybe you’re feeling completely touched out, overwhelmed, or just mentally exhausted. Maybe the invisible load of motherhood feels heavier than you expected. Whatever stage of the journey you’re in, I’m here to help. Together, we can work through:
Postpartum anxiety/depression—adjusting to this new role can be harder than expected
Mom guilt & the mental load—when the pressure to “do it all” feels impossible
Feeling touched out & emotionally drained—especially when you’re giving to everyone but yourself
Loving parenthood but missing pieces of your old life—because both can be true at the same time
Beginning your therapeutic journey can be a daunting and vulnerable experience- I am here to guide you through the process.
You don’t have to keep pushing through on your own. You deserve support, too. Please call me at (732) 810-2552 or email me to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if I would be a good fit for you.
