Community Care as a Practice

I am a doula that seeks reproductive justice, safe and affirming healthcare, and harm reduction for all of my clients. As your doula, you can expect me to include somatic therapy, informed consent, and justice-centered education in our time together. I do this by offering doula services to folks who require care for birth & postpartum, loss of a wanted pregnancy, gender affirming care, abortion, adoption & fertility, and HIV care.

Birth & Postpartum

  • I am a full spectrum doula certified by Cornerstone Doula Training. I offer prenatal sessions, full in-person attendance of birth, and postpartum care services. Navigating pregnancy, labour & birth, and postpartum continues to come with its unique experiences and systemic challenges. Life givers and those who love them deserve responsive, informed care practices that support them to feel held and confident in their choices. I am excited to connect and learn what specific needs look like for you and how we can work together to create a birth and postpartum experience where your joy is protected and your body sovereignty shines brightly. 

  • Services are available on a sliding scale. No one is turned away due to financial barriers.

    Birth Package $2000-4000

    Postpartum Days $35/h Nights $45/h

    All services are free to clients Indigenous to Turtle Island.

Loss of a Wanted Pregnancy

  • For many of us, growing our family can come with loss and grief. When a pregnancy ends suddenly it can feel like we don’t know which way is up. Everything has changed but not in the way we had envisioned. It can feel like there is no way to go back or move forward. It can be hard to know how to lean on or be held by our families and communities. Working with a doula during a loss is a chance to be with your grief, while also being held and supported through postpartum. Loss of a wanted pregnancy leaves families, couples, and birthing parents forever changed. This type of transformation is deeply personal and powerful and can be too much for us to hold on our own. Together we will find pathways towards recovery, healing, and acceptance, while ensuring that you are lovingly held by your community.

Gender Affirming Care

  • Everyone deserves to feel the magic and wonder of their bodies and delight in gender expression. Whatever the transformation, it is a privilege to journey with clients to increase access to gender affirming care and to find as much ease and flow in those processes. Together, we rely on your deep body wisdom and longing to guide the way. Working together is a chance to go inward and name gender dreams and take tangible steps towards them. This can look like but is not limited to: Strengthening personal care networks; Recovery planning; Attendance of surgery, procedures, or appointments; Space to explore gender expression and curiosities; Post-op check-ins, hands-on care, and emotional support; Support navigating dynamics with family and friends; Strategies for coping with gender dysphoria and body dysmorphia; Practices for sustaining pleasure and trans joy.

Abortion Care

  • Everyone deserves access to abortion services while feeling safe and held throughout the experience. As a full spectrum doula, I offer support for all approaches to abortion. Working together is a chance to lay down the externalized pressures of what an abortion is “supposed to look like” and get clear on your specific needs and desires. Together we will find the path forward, ensuring that you are heard and receive the care you envision for yourself. This includes intentional practices to decrease harm to Black, Brown, Indigenous, and Trans clients. This type of care looks very different based on client needs and the type of abortion practice.

Adoption & Fertility

  • Family making can take many forms and regardless of the process, growing our families can come with many challenges and needs for support. Working with a doula through fertility and adoption is a chance to be held, witnessed, and advocated for in whatever experience you choose. Both fertility and adoption also come with their unique histories and barriers that require community care. Together we will walk through each step, centering your needs and your intentions while learning about fertility procedures and adoption bureaucracy.

HIV Care

  • Before becoming a doula I organized alongside Queer & Trans, Black and Brown, and Indigenous peers in the HIV and Hep C movement, working to decrease the impacts of HIV stigma. I continue this work by offering 1x1 services to HIV positive folks who are looking for support with navigating their status or the impacts of stigma in their day-to-day lives. Whether you’re new to your status or have been living with HIV for your whole life, the barriers of disclosure and navigating healthcare can have such a strain. Working together is a chance to have someone in your corner to attend appointments or hold space for your experiences, while centering your joy and safety.
