Parenting Support
Support for when things don’t feel “normal”
Support for Parents of
Medically Complex Children
Does it feel like your entire life revolves around medical appointments, therapies, and advocating for your child—while you're running on empty and no one acknowledges how hard it is? Together, we can create internal resources for:
· Chronic stress and exhaustion from managing endless medical appointments, medications, and care routines
· Grief for the parenting experience you imagined and the milestones your child may never reach
· Constant advocacy and fighting with insurance, schools, and medical systems just to get basic care
· Isolation from other parents whose concerns feel trivial compared to your daily reality
· Guilt about neglecting your partner, other children, or yourself because your medically complex child requires so much
· Fear about your child's future, their suffering, and what happens when you're no longer able to care for them
· Identity loss when caregiving consumes everything and you've forgotten who you are beyond being your child's medical coordinator
· Ambiguous grief and complex emotions including love, resentment, hope, and despair all tangled together
Parenting a medically complex child requires strength most people can't imagine. You deserve support that acknowledges the weight you carry, helps you process complicated feelings without shame, and finds sustainable ways to care for your child while also caring for yourself.
Parenting Neurodiverse Children
Are you constantly searching for answers, fighting for support, and second-guessing yourself—while watching your child struggle and wondering if you're doing enough? We can work through challenges like:
· Exhaustion from navigating diagnosis processes, therapies, IEPs, and systems that weren't designed for your child
· Guilt about your own reactions—the frustration, overwhelm, or resentment that surfaces during difficult moments
· Grief for the different parenting journey you expected while learning to embrace the reality
· Constant advocacy to get accommodations for your child in schools and social settings
· Feeling judgment & receiving unsolicited advice from other parents who don't understand your challenges
· Worry about your child's future, their social struggles, independence, and whether they'll be okay in a world that isn't built for them
· Identity confusion as you balance being your child's advocate, interpreter, and safe space while trying to maintain your own sense of self
Parenting a neurodivergent child brings unique joys and challenges that many people don't understand. Support can help you process complex emotions, develop effective strategies, strengthen your family relationships, and find balance between advocating fiercely for your child and caring for yourself.
High Performing Parents
Does it feel like you're supposed to excel at everything—crushing it at work while also being the perfect parent—but instead you're stretched impossibly thin and failing at both? We can create a balance that feels more sustainable by exploring topics like:
· Guilt about missing moments, working late, or feeling more engaged at the office than at home with your kids
· Exhaustion from the relentless pressure to perform at the highest level in your career while also being fully present as a parent
· Perfectionism that makes you feel like you're constantly falling short no matter how much you achieve
· Identity conflict between your ambitious professional self and the parent you want to be, wondering if you can truly have both
· Lack of time for yourself, your relationship, or anything beyond work and parenting obligations
· Fear that slowing down means losing your edge professionally or failing your family financially and emotionally
High achievement and present parenting don't have to be mutually exclusive, but the constant pressure to be exceptional everywhere is unsustainable. You don't have to choose between your ambition and your family, but you do need support to navigate the tension, let go of impossible standards, and create a life that works for the real you.
“I was barely holding it together with my son- between constant hospital visits, fighting with insurance, and grief I was pushing down so I couldn’t feel it, I felt like I was drowning. Heidi gave me permission to acknowledge how hard this is without feeling like a bad parent.
She helped me process the grief and develop strategies to actually sustain myself for the long haul. I still have really hard days, but now
I'm not doing it alone.” - - Client/Parent of medically complex child
