Therapeutic Postpartum Doula Services
I offer emotional support and practical tools around key postpartum issues like birth healing, newborn care, baby-wearing, chest/breastfeeding, nutrition, and sleep. And as a therapeutic postpartum doula, I also draw on my background in counseling psychology to provide a full range of psycho-social support for the postpartum family. I offer clients a warm therapeutic space and an opportunity for growth and healing in the following areas:
- Grief/Loss
- Parenting after Infertility
- Parent-Infant Bond and Attachment Relationships
- Navigating the shift in postpartum family dynamics
- Birth Trauma
- Postpartum Anxiety/Depression (*See Disclaimer below)
The Therapeutic Postpartum Doula fee is $75/hour. (Some sliding scale spots available upon request). Appointments typically last 2 hours and are scheduled 1-2 times/week, depending on availability and your specific needs. I offer support to clients anytime in pregnancy and up to 1 year postpartum.
*Disclaimer: Therapeutic Postpartum Doula Services are not a substitute for counseling and do not include diagnosis or treatment of mental health disorders. I will refer clients who need this kind of support to a professional mental health counselor. These services also do not include household duties, childcare duties, or overnight care.
