Personal Statement:
I help guide women through the excitement, anxiety, depression, stress, overwhelm, grief and chaos of pregnancy, motherhood and life. I work with you to bring gentle and mindful awareness and compassion to the thoughts and emotions that are keeping you stuck and unable to move along your motherhood and family’s journey. Through my work, I identify your strengths and abilities and work with you to understand how you can harness these to overcome obstacles in your life. My goal is to enable individuals to find creative, satisfying and long-lasting solutions to their difficulties. I am deeply committed to helping clients to develop the tools they need to address their difficulties, to understand themselves more fully, and to live more fulfilling lives. www.heatherratych.com
