The Good Enough Mama, Perfectionism & Healing

Motherhood can bring many challenges and often asks us to do deep healing work. In today’s episode I have the privilege of being joined by Catherine Counihan, a trauma-informed integrative Psychotherapist and mother of twin girls, who shares her experience on the intersection of healing, perfectionism and the Good Enough Mother.  We will explore why motherhood can often be our greatest opportunity for healing and how we can learn how to hold space for our children’s big emotions whilst also dealing with our own. We discover what “Good Enough" mothering is, what it looks like and how we can use it to support attuned relationships.  I’d love to hear your experience of this episode, please feel free to drop a comment below with any of your thoughts.  As always, we continue this conversation over on Instagram. Come join us there.  Resources:  Website Instagram  Podcast About Catherine Counihan:   Catherine Counihan is an integrative, trauma-informed Psychotherapist working in private practice in London.
