I am committed to supporting you and the decisions you make around your pregnancy. I offer prenatal education, labor & birth support, post birth/ post loss healing care, and virtual consulting services. For optimal healing results post birth, miscarriage, or abortion, I recommend a series of 4-6 postpartum healing sessions within the first 6-8 weeks. Healing sessions can be received by anyone of any gender at any time and are not limited to folks who are pregnant or postpartum. I also recommend a series of healing sessions for folks who are processing the death of a loved one, the end of an important relationship, a chronic or acute dis-ease, and any big life transition.

- You are noticing uncomfortable physical, spiritual, or emotional developments and are seeking natural and herbal remedies to support your healing process
- You’ve given birth before and would love some prenatal refreshers or you want to fill in specific topics to the prenatal education you’re already receiving

Quetzal Abortion Support
I support you in making decisions that honor your body and autonomy. You have the right to have an abortion ceremony that is just as sacred as any birth ceremony. For some, having an abortion can be a deeply altering experience, and for others it may be a lighter experience. Either way, I am here to support you!
- Emotional, physical, and energetic support before, during, and after abortion
- Present during your abortion (when permitted)
- Assistance in setting the space and engaging in release ceremony, if desired

I carefully choose my rates to honor the skill and labor that I invest into your and your little one’s care while being accessible to those who need doula support and fair to other practitioners who make their living doing this work. If you are interested in working with me but cannot meet the prices listed, please let me know! I trust we can find a way for you to get the support you need and honor my labor. Payment plans are available upon request. I am not currently able to accept insurance, however I am working on enrolling as a medi-cal approved provider and hope to offer this option very soon.
