Motherhood is a role filled with joy, challenges, and an ever-growing list of responsibilities. Today’s moms are not only caregivers but also professionals, entrepreneurs, partners, and community leaders, all while managing the emotional and physical needs of their families. Amy Grace, a licensed therapist and motherhood specialist, has dedicated her life’s work to ensuring that mothers receive the support they need to thrive in every stage of their journey. Through her counseling practice, Real Life Creative Counseling, and her Everyday Supermoms podcast, Amy is redefining what it means to be a “supermom” by helping women embrace their unique strengths, heal from past struggles, and build fulfilling lives.
Amy’s journey into motherhood was anything but traditional. Becoming a mother as a young, single college student, she quickly learned the resilience and adaptability required to raise children. Over the past 26 years, she has navigated single motherhood, marriage, divorce, co-parenting, blending families, and even becoming a bonus grandmother. These personal experiences have shaped her approach to therapy, allowing her to connect deeply with her clients and provide guidance rooted in both professional expertise and real-life understanding.
In her Colorado-based private practice, Real Life Creative Counseling, Amy offers therapy tailored to the unique challenges of motherhood. From the early stages of pregnancy to the transition of an empty nest, she works with women facing issues such as infertility, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, relationship struggles, and the everyday pressures of parenting. Recognizing that traditional therapy models may not always align with the demands of motherhood, she offers intensive therapy sessions—ranging from three hours to two-day sessions—so that busy moms can receive meaningful support in a time-efficient manner. These intensives have proven to be highly effective, allowing women to experience deep, transformative healing without the need for months of weekly sessions.
Amy is credentialed in perinatal mental health, a specialization that enables her to provide expert care for mothers in the critical early stages of parenting. Her expertise in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Brainspotting further enhances her ability to help clients process trauma and emotional challenges. What sets Amy apart in the crowded field of therapy is not only her extensive training but also her unwavering belief in the strength and resilience of every mother she works with.
In addition to her therapy practice, Amy launched the Everyday Supermoms podcast to create a platform where mothers could share their authentic stories. Each week, she invites a guest to discuss the real, unfiltered experiences of motherhood—highlighting both the struggles and triumphs. Topics range from maternal mental health, pregnancy challenges, and balancing career and family, to adoption, blended families, military life, and everything in between. By fostering open and honest conversations, the podcast serves as a source of encouragement and inspiration, reminding mothers that they are not alone in their journey.
“Motherhood is the hardest job in the world,” Amy says. “Now more than ever, moms are balancing all the things—work, home life, a billion kid activities, businesses, hobbies, relationships. And that’s just on any given Tuesday. But we have to remember that when we invest in our own health and wellness, we are giving our kids the best gift ever—a strong, amazing mom.”
Amy’s impact extends beyond therapy sessions and podcast episodes. She is also the author of The Motherhood Mindset Journal and Workbook, a resource designed to help moms cultivate self-awareness, personal growth, and balance in their daily lives. Additionally, she is currently working on her first nonfiction book for mothers, which will further expand on the themes of resilience, self-care, and embracing motherhood on one’s own terms.
The philosophy that drives Amy’s work is simple yet profound: all moms can be supermoms by embracing their unique strengths and creating a life they love. Unlike societal expectations that often push women toward perfectionism, Amy encourages mothers to define success in motherhood on their own terms. “Being a supermom isn’t about doing everything perfectly,” she explains. “It’s about loving your kids, being intentional in your parenting, and not trying to fit yourself into someone else’s mold. The best moms are the ones who figure out how to love being a mom in their own way.”
Her approach resonates deeply with overwhelmed, busy, and burnt-out moms who often put their own needs last. In a world where mothers are expected to pour their energy into their children, careers, and communities without hesitation, Amy challenges the notion that self-sacrifice is the key to good parenting. Instead, she advocates for self-care as a necessity, not a luxury. “We spend thousands on our kids’ activities,” she notes. “But when it comes to getting ourselves the support we need to be our best selves, we hesitate. It’s time we shift that mindset. A thriving mom leads to a thriving family.”
As a mother to four biological daughters (ages 10 to almost 26), two grown bonus stepsons, and a two bonus grandsons, Amy understands firsthand the evolving challenges of motherhood. Her personal journey, coupled with two decades of experience supporting women through therapy, makes her an invaluable resource for moms at any stage. Whether through her counseling practice, podcast, or writing, Amy Grace is making a profound impact on the lives of mothers—helping them heal, grow, and embrace the beautiful, messy, and rewarding journey of motherhood.
