About Me

With 17 years experience, I offer trauma-informed support based on your preferences. The non-medical support of a doula, in tandem with your midwife, OB, or hospital nurses, is a welcome aid for your nervous system that makes your birth, or other medical event, less traumatic. This is true for pregnancy, in the labor room, or any health event. As your doula, I can assist you with methods that help your nervous system to relax. I can help find answers to questions and have your back as you follow your unique path. With a strong background in pain coping, I am confident in helping you to find your unique recipe for managing pain.

Practice Philosophy

At the heart of my work is a simple belief: every client deserves a safe space to learn, ask questions, and feel truly supported, without judgment, no matter what.

I strive to meet each family with respect, compassionate listening, and do my best to support each patient throughout their unique journey. Your story matters, your choices matter, and it is my strong intention to help you to navigate whatever comes up in a way that respects your preferences. I am comfortable working via tele-health, phone visits, or in person.
