Birth Doula Support  


“Birth is not neat and fast and quiet: it's gritty and primal. But it's nothing to fear unless you also think we ought to fear women crying when they are sad or laughing when they are happy.”

–MAYIM BIALIK

Katie sees birth as a right of passage, a ceremonial journey that deserves to be held and tended with sacred reverence and absolute presence. Her pre-natals are held in ceremonial containers, weaving in ritual, intention setting, meditation, embodiment practices and a full range of support outlined below.  Her packages are curated to each individual and family, as your desires, needs and visions for your pre-natal-postpartum period are all unique.

Katie offers complimentary 30 minute phone consult and one complimentary face to face meeting where we co-create a contract that works for both of us! 

Doula Consultation - 30 minutes

Let's connect and see if it's in alignment for us to come together during your birthing journey. This session will go over my current packages and availability. At this time I will answer any questions you have about me and working together! 

* This is not a time to ask me questions about birth or pregnancy. I have a separate session for birth planning and "picking my brain" about birth education if that interests you!

~ Testimonials ~

“"This was the most powerful experience of my life. Katie was an integral part of it. Her understanding around alignment within and the firm holding of integrity to the spiritual rite of passage inherent in birth made my experience perfect for me. I felt held, seen, honored, on so many planes.” Jen W

“To Say Katie was a huge asset to our birth is an understatement. Katie impressed the entire birth team with over 50 years of experience. Katie is more giving and generous than anyone I have ever met. She takes time to prepare herself and make space for others, instead of jumping in with emotions. She is a safe haven on this journey. She helped me physically more than anyone at my birth. She was there during each and every contraction helping me and compressing my hips. When it was time for the birth she was brilliant enough to catch it on film! She has an intuitive nature around everything in life, and that serves in birth. My husband and I are forever grateful.” Michaela Miller
