about me

trying to give my kids a better life

Oh hello! My name’s Mary, and I casually write this blog. I used to write a lot as a kid, and on and off over the years. People are always telling me I have a way with words so here I am.

My aim for @parentingPTSD on this blog, and all other channels, is to create and share content that is easy to understand, educational, actionable, and could potentially help someone who is on their own path of battling PTSD or bringing their kids through the darkness.

But really, the vast knowledge I have gained, the skills I have, and the experiences I have been through myself have given me an extensive set of skills to be able to help in the trauma realm, in particular with young children.

I am not a doctor (yet?) and this is not medical advice. This is just me, a mom trying to give my kids a better life – better than living in a trauma state for 30 years like I did. A mom who has had to fight so hard to save my children, and who sees you and wants to help.

Sending all the strength, love, and patience 🖤
