Therapeutic Support
Holding space for ALL female-identifying persons— to share what’s rising to the surface in their life and resource with breath, somatic movement, compassionate care through active/reflective listening with an emphasis on deepening awareness of your body’s needs and supporting the wellness of your body. Together we practice nervous system regulation techniques, exploring reflective writing and narrative medicine as tools for self-knowledge, breath-work, somatic therapies, and more in holding, processing, and moving through grief.
Postpartum Support
Deeply personal support for a birthing person and family as they navigate the postpartum period. Postpartum support meets you in your home to help care for baby, birthing parents, and family. In consultation, we’ll explore the types of support most helpful to you and your family– from batch-cooking meals to caring for baby while parents sleep to ensuring light house-work is accomplished in this critical time. A working knowledge of sleep styles, baby developmental stages, somatic therapies, and compassionate care are applied each session through out time together.
Child Loss / Infertility Support

We are here to be an advocate for you, a support system in helping you navigate holding and honoring your experience. Our sessions together can take many forms– from therapeutic talk therapy interwoven with somatic and breath-work therapies to helping guide ritual practice to honor your experience without words.
