Postpartum Support

Welcome to the 4th trimester.

Are you:

Having a hard time healing after the significant physical and emotional transformations your body has been through?

Settling into a new identity?

Juggling multiple responsibilities and/or other children?

Doing all this while learning your new baby’s needs and rhythms?

Then you’re definitely in the 4th trimester. This is when I will support you resting, recuperating, caring for your newborn, finding community resources, and processing your birth experience.

will hold the parent?"

This ritual space is open to anybody who has been pregnant in their and experienced any kind of birth- vaginal, cesarean, miscarriage, or abortion. These are all equally portals of transformation whose healing deserves to be seen and tended to.

This is an invitation to create spaciousness to integrate, heal trauma, drop into your pelvic wellbeing, and step into your new self with clarity and roundedness. The experience can be especially profound if you have experienced birth trauma, but I believe all postpartum people can benefit from this. In many cultures, this kind of closing ritual is a part of perinatal healthcare. It is so important to take time for reflection and closure, and as a new parent, it feels amazing to be the one being taken care of.

A postpartum closing session takes around 2 hours and the full fee is $250
