I have a special interest in supporting Southwest and West Philly-based Black, brown, Indigenous, queer/trans, and disabled birthing people and their families, although I serve the greater Philadelphia area.

I approach my doula practice through prioritizing reproductive justice, client-centered care, evidence-based practices, informed consent, and a mind open to the awe and wonder of birth.

Reproductive justice - The foundation of my work is rooted in reproductive justice, which is the right for everyone to control their reproduction. This includes the right for everyone to have autonomy over their sexuality, gender identity and expression, and if/when/how/how many children they have. My vision for the future includes a world where everyone is free to care for their reproductive and birthing experiences in the ways that they want, on their own terms.

Client-centered care - No two abortion, miscarriage, or birthing experiences are the same. I meet my clients where they are at and adjust my approaches according to the needs and desires of each person.

Evidence-based practices - My doula practice is grounded in evidence of all types. I believe that evidence comes in many forms, including the wisdom of mentors and the Black and Indigenous birth workers who shape this field, the teachings of plants and the natural world, academic and research-based insights, and community-sourced reflections and best practices.

Informed consent - I believe that people know what’s best for their bodies and deserve to have autonomy when making decisions about their health. I approach all my clients with the openness and transparency needed for them to make grounded, enthusiastic, and consensual decisions about what type of birth, abortion, or miscarriage support they want.
