Full Spectrum Support: Honoring Every Journey

As a doula, I provide individualized support through the range of reproductive experiences. If you’re navigating childbirth, postpartum, loss, or abortion, I’ll join you on your path and help you feel fully seen, heard, and taken care of.

Whether you’re planning to give birth at home, a birth center, or a hospital, I provide evidence-based information, emotional support, and physical comfort measures that help you realize your innate power. My goal is to create a nurturing environment where you can confidently embrace your journey into parenthood armed with knowledge and open to joy, pleasure, and transformation.

The postpartum period can be a time of significant adjustment. I offer guidance to help you navigate the emotional and practical changes of welcoming a new baby. From lactation support to meal preparation, and long conversations to household help, I’m dedicated to ensuring you feel held, nurtured, and supported during those first few weeks.

Experiencing a miscarriage or stillbirth can be heartbreaking. I provide support during and after the loss, offering a safe and compassionate space to process. Together we can grieve, celebrate, and honor the life that you were growing.

Choosing an abortion is a deeply personal decision, and I’m here to offer nonjudgmental support throughout the process. Whether you need emotional reassurance, practical assistance, or help navigating resources, I aim to empower you in making informed choices that align with your values.
