Doula Care

Our time and energy are precious, especially during times of transition. As your doula, I’ll help you find a pathway forward and see you through to the other side — every step of the way.

As your companion, I offer the support of a personal advocate, a private educator, a mindful movement and meditation guide, a care concierge to tailor a support system specific to your needs, and a liaison to coordinate that care.

The structure of our work together will break down big steps into smaller ones and provide gentle accountability, keeping you moving toward where you want to go. Together, we’ll create a container of support in which your unique process can unfold, freeing up your energy to enjoy activities and relationships that sustain you.

I am able to provide most of my services remotely for full-spectrum, psychedelic, death, grief, and transformation doula clients.

In-person and on-site services include

  • massage & reiki

  • movement & embodiment sessions

  • birth & abortion attendance

  • postpartum belly binding

  • psychedelic trip sitting

  • Swedish death cleaning

  • end-of-life vigil attendance

I aim to fill in the gaps of standard care with an integrative approach that connects existing resources and locates new ones, weaving together an ecosystem of support that embraces your wholeness. Because my practice encompasses many of life’s big transitions, I’m able to offer care through a range of thresholds — by your side when you need.

Doula-on-Demand sessions offer the opportunity to receive a single, powerful infusion of resources and strategy. Think of it like a dose of ultra-potent nourishment to fertilize what you want to blossom through your journey.

For comprehensive support throughout your process, I offer a range of multi-session series — whether you’re needing a little extra guidance or regular hands-on assistance. Many service packages are offered on a sliding scale, as indicated by an * in the Investment Details section of each package.

FAQ

  • Often, the term “doula” refers to a birthworker, however, the skillset that allows doulas to navigate this complex terrain translates into valuable support for a wide range of life experiences. My expertise lies in the areas of full-spectrum reproductive support, death & grief care, and psychedelic journeywork.

    Doulas specialize in providing advocacy, education, and non-medical care. Skilled in emotional and spiritual support, doulas create a secure and non-judgmental space, building relationships and offering guidance to individuals and families. They provide the information and assistance necessary for empowered decision-making in the face of life's unpredictable challenges.

    Times of transition can be particularly challenging. Faced with the unknown, even simple tasks can feel overwhelming. Emotional support becomes crucial during these moments to help individuals adapt to new circumstances or simply provide comfort and trustworthy companionship. Doulas do not aim to “fix” you, but rather empower you to connect to your inner wisdom and establish yourself as the authority on your body and experience.

    Doula care can turn a transition into a transformation.

  • I am dedicated to assisting you through your transformative journey within my scope of practice.

    In my role as a doula, I make the following commitments

    • I promise to be a neutral and non-judgmental sounding board for you.

    • I will always encourage humor and creativity in our interactions.

    • Advocating for your priorities, decisions, and spiritual goals is a top priority.

    • I am open to collaborating with other care providers as necessary.

    • I will strictly adhere to the relevant laws and regulations in the states in which I practice and serve.

    • Your personal information will be kept confidential and secure at all times.

    • I am committed to continuous professional education to enhance my skills.

    • I prioritize self-care to ensure I can provide you with the best support.

    Here's what you should not expect from me

    • I cannot provide medical care or advice, nor do I provide the services of a home health aide, including assistance with medications, bathing, toileting, or feeding.

    • I am not qualified to offer legal or financial advice. For legal documents, estate planning, or financial matters, it's essential to consult with licensed professionals.

    • I do not provide any psychedelic compound, nor do I condone or encourage the purchase, sale, or use of any illegal substance.

    While I offer emotional support, I am not a licensed mental healthcare provider, and my services, while complementary to therapy, are not to be construed as a substitute for psychological counseling or therapy.

  • I work with individuals from diverse backgrounds, spanning various genders, ages, races, ethnicities, spiritual beliefs, and social contexts.

    Because my practice encompasses the full-spectrum of life transitions, I am uniquely positioned to provide continuity of care, offering the comfort of a familiar presence and established relationship to accompany you through multiple life changes.
