Certifications and qualifications: Homeopathy, Massage Therapy, Doula services

I have two children, one 23 and one 15, both of which were born in a home birth environment. Through my birthing experience, that of coming deep within my self so that I could have two natural childbirths, I draw a depth of understanding into the physiological and emotional changes that birthing requires. Over the years in my holistic health care practice and through attending many births this understanding has only deepened as I stand by other women who venture through this passage into motherhood.

Currently I have a general health practice for all health concerns from infancy throughout life. It is a unique style of practice that includes massage, psycho-somatic release therapies, classical homeopathic care, and doula services all utilized accordingly, to bring about the most remarkable changes and support in people's health and well-being. I have been offering doula services as a part of my since 2000. Doula care is at the cornerstone of fulfilling my commitment to life and creativity, offering holistic support at a most crucial point in a woman's life and the birth of her baby. I also offer pre-natal massage therapy and related bodywork techniques to keep the body in health and balance throughout pregnancy and in the post partum period. For childbirth I offer intentional supportive care to mothers to help facilitate the birth she desires. I work with the family to bring everyone into the process in a way that feels right for both the father, the mother and the child. My philosophical approach in doula care is to help the mother find her path of strength whether it be mentally, emotionally or physically to ensure healthy delivery of her child.

As a homeopath and massage therapist also I am able to offer these tools as adjunctive and supportive measures to reduce the need for medical interventions during the labor process. Homeopathy can be utilized in all aspects of the childrearing years to help clear hormonal imbalances, inability to conceive, tendency to miscarriage, morning sickness, and a whole host of other conditions that arise during pregnancy. For childbirth and delivery homeopathy can be utilized to address a myrad of conditions from anticipatory anxiety, failure to progress, incomplete opening of the cervix, anxieties and fears, to hemorrhaging, fetal distress and more. For the post partum period homeopathy can be utilized to treat mental and emotional conditions including post partum depression, ailments from loss of sleep, difficulty with lactation and more. For infants and children homeopathy helps for conditions such as colic, constipation, teething difficulties, fevers and others.
