Compassion Fatigue
You’re kind, compassionate, and caring—toward others.
You say yes to others when you want to say no.
You say no to yourself when you want to say yes.
You put everyone else’s needs first.
You’re last on your list.
I’ve been there.
If you’re weary, exhausted, or discouraged, I understand.
Being a parent is so much harder than you imagined. The sleepless nights. The endless worries. The anxious questions. If only you could do more for them.
If only they would sleep.
If only you could sleep. If only you weren’t so tired.
Then there are the unexpected tantrums, meltdowns, and disruptive behaviors—including yours. Time alone is a distant memory. Someone always needs you.
The days are long, yet the weeks fly by, and your To-Do list is never-ending. This isn’t the family you expected. You’re not the parent you expected. It’s nothing like you imagined. Your world has turned upside down.
If you’re experiencing
Fear, anxiety & worry
Secondary or vicarious trauma
Discouragement, hopelessness
You may be experiencing Compassion Fatigue.
It’s a cycle of stress, anxiety and overwhelm that can lead to exhaustion and burn out. There is hope.
What if responding to your child’s needs is an invitation
to embark upon a healing journey of your own?
If their traumas have become your traumas…I can help
If your child has a history of trauma
Parenting children with a history of trauma is hard.
