Comprehensive, Holistic
MIDWIFERY CARE
The midwifery model of care takes into consideration the whole person and their wellness to provide individualized education, counseling, and clinical care while minimizing unnecessary interventions. It is based on the understanding that pregnancy and birth is a normal physiological process that should not be interfered with unless there is a clear need.
I firmly believe birth is a natural process that should be celebrated, nurtured, and normalized with a family-centered approach.
I am here to offer guidance to women and their families as they navigate their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. As a licensed midwife, I am able to provide all of your care including ordering labs and ultrasounds, as well as referral to an appropriate provider if any complications arise.
Experienced
DOULA/MONITRICE SUPPORT
Birth opens the door to a woman's strength in a way nothing else in this life can. It touches your soul, and you are likely to experience every emotion imaginable. You may reach a point where you want to give up.
THIS IS WHY I'M HERE.
I employ techniques that have been passed down through generations and across cultures to alleviate the discomfort that childbirth can bring. I'm knowledgeable in ideal birthing positions, stretches, and exercises that can encourage the baby to move down and reduce the length of labor. If your partner or a family member is present for your birth, I can guide them through any or all of these techniques, so they are involved and present during this experience. My goal is to strengthen your partnerships during this intimate time; enhance your connection with those who love you.
Unobtrusive Birth
PHOTOGRAPHY
I believe that birth is one of the greatest things you'll experience. Birth imagery is more than just capturing a moment. These photos tell a story, and whether it's your first, or you're already a seasoned parent, this story is unique and deserves to be told. You deserve to see your strength through a different lens. Birth images influence our birth culture, and our own views of what we are capable of. I want to SHOW you.
