ERIN BUCKALLEW, LPC, PMH-C
CERTIFIED PERINATAL MENTAL HEALTH THERAPIST & POSTPARTUM CONFIDENCE COACH
Hey there, mom-to-be!
Are you imagining holding your baby, setting up the nursery, and stepping into this new chapter of life? I bet you're feeling excited, maybe a little nervous, but mostly focused on the practical stuff. That's great, but there's so much more to prepare for - the whirlwind of emotions, the mental juggling act, and the way relationships shift when you become a mom. These are the things no one really talks about, but they're so important.
As a Postpartum Confidence Coach, I'm passionate about helping you build inner strength and confidence before your little one arrivesThink of me as your motherhood mentor. We'll work together to set realistic expectations (goodbye, Pinterest-perfect nursery pressure!), prioritize your mental health, and navigate those tricky relationship changes.
A little about me
Hello! I'm Erin Buckallew, your certified Postpartum Confidence Coach. As a survivor of postpartum anxiety and depression following the birth of my daughter, Nora, I intimately understand the challenges that new mothers face. Despite reading countless pregnancy books and having a relatively uncomplicated delivery, I found myself unprepared for the mental and emotional challenges of motherhood—struggling with breastfeeding difficulties, intrusive thoughts, and the overwhelming question of "Who am I now besides a mom?"
The combination of my personal journey through motherhood and my professional background as a mental health counselor who specializes in working with pregnant and new moms give me a unique perspective on the complex blend of emotions, uncertainties, and joys that accompany this life transition. I've dedicated my career to providing the support and information I desperately needed during my own postpartum experience, believing that to be educated is to be empowered.
Through my coaching, I guide pregnant and new mothers in nurturing strong minds, cultivating resilient selves, and fostering meaningful connections. I teach the essential aspects of the postpartum experience that often go undiscussed, providing tools for a confident journey into parenthood. Having supported countless women in reclaiming their confidence and finding balance in their new role, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your motherhood journey, helping you achieve your personal goals as you become the mother you want to be.
My approach? It's all about you.
Sure, we'll talk about baby stuff, but we'll focus on you as a person, not just as a mom-to-be. Whether we work one-on-one coaching, participate in workshops, or my signature “Postpartum Power” program, we'll tackle the emotional and mental aspects of motherhood head-on.
Why choose me as your coach? I've been where you are now. I understand the late-night worries, the self-doubt, and the overwhelming love you're about to experience. I've got the professional expertise to guide you, and the personal experience to truly empathize with your journey.
So, if you're ready to step into motherhood feeling confident, capable, and supported, let's chat. Together, we'll create a game plan that puts you first - because a happy, confident you means a happier family all around.
