Therapy
for Millennial Moms in California
Millennial Mama
Therapy
It’s so nice to meet you! My name is Lauren and I’m the “Millennial Mama” behind Millennial Mama Therapy.
I’m a mom of two, an eldest daughter with a late ADHD diagnosis (IYKYK), and a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT #133941).
I was a therapist before I became a mom, but didn’t specialize in moms and parent couples until AFTER I became a mom. Motherhood has changed me to my core, and I suspect the same is true for you (which is why you’re probably here - welcome! 💕).
I specialize in working with moms and parent couples who are like me: doing the best we can with what we have, wondering if we’re going to screw up out kids, navigating our mental health while passing out snacks, staying up way to late to have a moment for ourselves only to regret it when 6am (shockingly) comes around.
Find YOUR Motherhood With Therapy
Motherhood is a trip – in every sense of the word.
In case no one has said it before, welcome about the Matrescence Train! Once you get on, you never get off (and literally NO ONE thought to tell us that before we got on?!).
Matrescence is the physical, psychological, and emotional changes you’ll go through after the birth of your child (and it doesn’t end at your 6-week follow up appointment). Any of the below are totally normal, and I’d love to talk you through it.
Postpartum depression
Postpartum anxiety
Baby blues
Perinatal depression and anxiety
Difficulty with breastfeeding, tongue ties, or oral ties
Wondering if you’re a bad mom
Wondering why you don’t feel like yourself after having a baby
Wondering how to find happiness and identity as a new mom

Lauren Puliz, MA
LMFT #133941, PMH-C
I love working with millennial moms who feel lost in motherhood, whether you just brought home a new baby or your latest season of motherhood has knocked you on your butt (again).
We spend a TON of time preparing for pregnancy and birth, and not enough for the rollercoaster of postpartum and motherhood.
Together, we will navigate your individual journey through motherhood.
MY GOAL:
For you to know that
You ARE a good enough mom
AND
You ARE the right mom for your kiddos
