Hello! My name is Ann Marie Hefferan and I'm the owner and therapist at In The Now Counseling. My counseling practice is geared toward women and the issues they face in marriage/romantic relationships, motherhood, and caregiving roles. I am passionate about the struggles women experience in these roles due to my own experience as a teenage mother, wife, and someone who has dealt with infertility, severe postpartum depression, anxiety, juggling the demands of work and motherhood, career-change and becoming a caregiver to an adult child who recently sustained a significant physical disability.
My professional work experience in counseling, prior to starting a private practice, includes working with women dealing with unplanned pregnancies,counseling high school students in a special education program at an inner-city high school, and counseling adolescents and adults with disabilities at a state vocational rehabilitation office.
Are you exhausted and overwhelmed by your responsibilities? Do you feel like everyone’s needs come before your own? Does thinking about the future cause you undo worry or anxiety? Do you long for something to change? Whatever is happening in your life that has led you to look for a counselor, you deserve to make time for you!
