You are the perfect fit if….
You are a young Catholic mom who is struggling with mood swings, rage, anger, anxiety, guilt or…all the above!
You are so overwhelmed with the busy-ness of life, that it’s hard finding time and money to get help
You are looking for a holistic way to improve your mental health and manage your emotions
You want to be able to teach your children (or future children) the emotional regulation skills they need to develop and mature in a healthy way
I can't recommend Talia highly enough!! The changes I've experienced internally and the life skills that I have gained through her coaching will serve me and my family for the rest of my life. Every area of my life that felt like a struggle now feels like an invitation to get curious, grow in virtue, and lean into prayer and peace.

imagine being able to:
Stop emotionally overeating, overspending, and overscrolling
Set boundaries with others (including your children!) so that you can take care of yourself
Ask for help without feeling guilty
Be open to children without thinking “I can’t mentally handle it”
Stay stable and unshaken amidst all the info of “do this and not that” that can cause anxiety
emotional regulation is at the heart of all these situations
You don’t necessarily have to express every emotion you feel, but it is very important for your mental and overall health to process the emotions that you experience.
When you avoid or suppress your uncomfortable emotions - such as sadness, loneliness, guilt, fear, discouragement (just to name a few) - they build up subconsciously and become a bigger problem.
You may start feeling depressed, or have bouts of rage, or experience crippling anxiety.
So you bring this bigger problem up with your doctor and she suggests trying anti-depressants or therapy or both.
Both of which can be good - if they work, and you can afford them.
But what happens when you want a different, more holistic route? And you want guidance from someone who has been through it before?
I’ve put in over 10 years of personal and academic experience into one simple course - just for you.
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder (type 2) when I entered the convent at the age of 24. Part of my discernment was that I didn’t think I would be stable enough to be a mother. Those 2.5 years became some of the most healing and formative years that ended up preparing me for my actual calling to marriage and physical motherhood.
Out of God’s great goodness - I learned to regulate my emotions and was able to drastically reduce the number of prescriptions I took (from 5 down to 1). My husband and I have now been blessed with 5 beautiful children. I’ve been able to breastfeed all of them because I was able to be on just the 1 medication. We even started homeschooling this past year - which was definitely something I never though possible! Motherhood has definitely been a surpise of joy - but with motherhood, I also learned that regulating my emotions was the best thing I could have ever learned to help me encounter that joy. Out of sheer gratitude and a passion to share what I had learned, I started coaching other women in 2020, and earned my Masters in Psychology in 2021 from Divine Mercy University.
I have now helped several women learn to manage their emotions and help them find a sense of stability and confidence. I want you to be next!
I can’t wait to serve you!

Learning to regulate your emotions is a key skill in navigating the inevitable chaos of family life - no matter how many children you have. You can easily become so overwhelmed by it all (the meltdowns! the messes! the sleepness nights!) that you become chronically grumpy, reactive and seeking escape in any form.
Or you can roll up your sleeves, learn to regulate your own emotions and how to process the feeling of overwhelm (and all those other feelings) so you can make good decisions, focus on true and good thoughts, and ultimately be the confident and calm mother you want to be.
Heck, you might even want to have more children once you realize how good it can be.

“I was struggling with not feeling confident in my new role as a mother. I struggled to have a good connection with my baby daughter, because I was so wrapped up in my own anxious thoughts feeling like I was not giving her my best. This anxiety and insecurity led to depression which took an emotional toll on my husband …It was all quite overwhelming.
I felt very guilty and Talia helped me see my worth as a mother or my "performance" as a mother was rooted in Christ and not what I accomplished that day. She feels like a friend, but is more than that, because she is completely emotionally attuned to areas that are holding you back from living a lighthearted, joyful, and anxiety-free life.”
