Carminda Passino, LCSW

You swore you’d do it differently— parent with more patience, presence, and emotional awareness. And you’re trying, really trying. But some days, you still snap. You spiral. You hear your mother’s voice in your own. And you wonder if healing while raising children is even possible. Maybe you’re carrying anxiety, resentment, or a quiet sadness that traces back to your own childhood. Maybe your relationship feels strained—communication is short, connection is harder, and the weight of parenting is taking a toll. You’re holding so much— your kids’ needs, your partner’s, and your own unspoken wounds. No wonder you’re exhausted. I work with women who are breaking cycles— women who grew up with emotional neglect, criticism, trauma, or silence, and who want to raise emotionally healthy children while healing their own pain. In therapy, we’ll unpack the patterns that no longer serve you, tend to your nervous system, and help you feel more grounded in your role as a parent, a partner, and a woman. You don’t have to choose between showing up for your family and showing up for yourself. You can be the cycle-breaker—without breaking yourself in the process. Let’s walk this healing path together.
