I am a Certified Lactation Counselor and Birth/Postpartum Doula, and was called to this work because of my own experiences. I had a myriad of pregnancy issues, including loss, high risk medical complications, postpartum mood disorder, PTSD, and breastfeeding challenges. Like many families, we could not find the right resources, despite looking and asking for help. I don't want another person to fall through the cracks like I did. That was back in 2007/2008, and while more support systems are in place, we are still clearly lacking. We all benefit from having compassionate, non-judgmental help in the process of starting or adding to our families, and it brings me immense satisfaction to be that person for others.

I believe that every person has the right to a safe, respectful, and empowering experience when starting or adding to their family-whether through adoption, fertility treatments, or birth. This should be provided no matter their race, religion, beliefs, economic status, disability status, sexual or gender identity. I am committed to providing personalized care that is tailored to each individual's needs and preferences, and I work collaboratively with my clients to provide the support they need, meeting them where they are at, with empathy, compassion and kindness.

I offer a range of services to support birthing individuals and families throughout the pregnancy and childbirth journey. These include prenatal support, labor and delivery support, postpartum care, bottle-feeding/formula guidance, pumping and lactation support. I also offer support for clients navigating the adoption and fertility treatment processes, pregnancy termination, and support after a pregnancy loss or subsequent pregnancy after loss, with trauma-informed care. Part of what I do is to help advocate-but not speak for-clients, and I am a big believer in finding resources and referring out whenever needed..
