Pregnancy, birth, post-partum, and pregnancy loss each have unique and deeply personal challenges. No one should have to face the highs and lows alone, and doula support can help you focus on you, your family, healing, and bonding.
I love working with families of all structures and backgrounds. My role is to be in solidarity with you and your choices: this is your body, your family, and your pregnancy. My goal is to help you feel supported, informed, seen, heard, advocated for, and at peace.
My training began in 2014 in Montreal with the incredible team at MotherWit. Motherwit training is longer and more holistic than any other doula training I could find. I was trained in birth preparation, hospital accompaniment, emotional support, postpartum support, nutritional therapies, and massage. I am also a DONA birth and postpartum doula. I later went on to be trained in miscarriage and abortion training where I chose to continue my training so that I could also teach this important work. I am now finishing my MA in Counselling Psychology to be registered counsellor, and this degree has deepened my insight and dedication to supporting the beauty and messiness of this human life.
Please note that my training was never dogmatic. My job is not to tell you what you should do, but to listen hard and, when asked, provide information so that you feel confident and supported in your choices. Every birth is different, special, and unique. It is such an incredible honor to be invited along as a fierce companion, advocate, and champion of your right to have the pregnancy, birth, and postpartum that is right for you.
Due to covid-19 restrictions, I very unfortunately cannot accompany you to the hospital for the time being. However, I'm currently available for prenatal support and counselling, postpartum support including overnights, and abortion/miscarriage support. I would be delighted to learn about you and your needs and values - please get in touch for a free 45-minute consultation.
