Hi, I’m Katie.

As a therapist and birth doula, I support people through some of life’s most meaningful transitions, and help them move through change with reflection, intention, and trust in themselves.

My Philosophy

When you approach birth with intention and information, the experience becomes something not just to get through, but something meaningful & powerful.

Drawing on my background as a therapist and yoga and Pilates teacher, I support clients in preparing mentally, emotionally, and physically for birth. Through reflective conversations, movement, breath practices, and education, we prepare your mind and body for the unique birth experience you envision.

Birth is not only a physical process, but a deeply transformative experience. I support you in cultivating connection with your baby, with your partner if present, and with your own intuition as you move through pregnancy and birth. By creating space for reflection and presence, birth becomes not a medical event, but a meaningful transition into parenthood.

Sweet words from mamas

"Katie empowered me with so much knowledge and confidence, helping me shape the type of birth experience I wanted to have, and reminding me that my partner and I truly have autonomy in the room and a voice in how our birth unfolds. Beyond the practical guidance, Katie created such a safe and beautiful space for me emotionally. She gave me permission to acknowledge and grieve the life I was leaving behind as I stepped into motherhood, something I had been quietly processing and hadn’t fully voiced yet. That level of care and emotional presence is rare and incredibly special."

-Carina

"After a challenging birth with my first child, I was determined to have a different experience the second time around. Katie helped me move from a place of fear to one of trust in my body and the birthing process. She is incredibly knowledgeable, but what makes her truly special is how deeply she listens and how intuitively she meets you where you are. Because of her guidance and preparation, I approached my second birth with confidence and had a deeply empowering and healing experience."
