HIGH ACHIEVERS DON'T STRUGGLE LESS. THEY JUST STRUGGLE MORE QUIETLY.
Your colleagues call you exceptional. Your team respects you. And you've built something real.
But you come home and you're someone else... someone who's more reactive, who yells all the time, and who's more depleted. This version of yourself is the one who you're least proud of and she shows up in the rooms that matter most... your living room and your kids' bedrooms.
And the biggest thing is, the more you succeed at work, the worse that gap feels.
You haven't lost yourself to motherhood, you've lost yourself to achievement. And now you want yourself back, and you want to actually be present for the years you can't get back with your kids.
You don't need more willpower. You don't need another strategy to push through. You need support that finally matches the level you operate at.
You're high-achieving, highly capable, and quietly running on empty. I work with you.
I'm Vanessa De Jesus Guzman, LPC, NCC, a licensed therapist, mom coach, and founder of Amiga Moms™.
I created this platform in 2018 after walking out of a client's home with one thought, "I'm spending an hour a week helping her kid. But if no one is helping the moms, what good am I really doing?"
That question has driven everything since.
I'm a first-generation Dominican-American, wife, mom to a tween, a toddler, and a goldendoodle, an serial entrepreneur. I know what it means to want to lead your own life with the same excellence you bring everywhere else, and to feel like your best self never quite makes it home.
Sometimes you want support from a therapist but you do not have a diagnosis to work through. You just have mom life. The daily overwhelm, the mental load, the feeling that you are losing yourself somewhere between everyone else's needs.
That is exactly where coaching comes in.
Working with me you also get the added bonus that your coach is also a licensed therapist with 20 plus years of clinical experience. You get all of that without needing a referral, a diagnosis, or a reason beyond wanting to feel like yourself again.
During the free 60-minute discovery call, I will let you you know if coaching is a good fit for you, or if therapy would be best.
