Birth is Transformational.

Your birth experience has the potential to affect you deeply for the rest of your life. Expecting mothers undergo tremendous physical, emotional and spiritual changes before and during a birth. During pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, I help you understand and accept your own unique responses to events, while helping you cultivate trust in your body's ability to give birth, and be more fully present during your experience.

Birth is Empowering.

As your midwife or doula, I empower you with information & support to make conscious choices throughout your pregnancy and birth, either in a hospital setting or in your home.  Before the birth, I help you clarify your priorities and values, to help your family create a joyful and gentle beginning. Birth is a powerful time for all involved. My role is to support the transformative nature of pregnancy and birth, however it looks for you, your child and family.

Birth is Unique.

There is no right or wrong way to give birth, and each woman has unique needs before and during her birth experience.  I provide comprehensive clinical care while supporting the emotional well-being of you and your family.
