Welcome,

I’m Katharine. And I’m so glad you’re here.

I am a mother, grandmother, advocate, sister, friend, and wisewoman. (And lover of travel, books, art, coffee, and animals, especially dogs.)

Whether you are navigating the seasons of pregnancy, birth, or postpartum, I am here to offer you and your family compassionate, relationship-focused, continuity of care. I view my clients as the experts of their own lives. My goal is to listen deeply, provide thoughtful care without an agenda, and ensure that the support you receive is tailored to your unique needs and priorities. My approach respects both intuition and evidence, traditional and modern medicine, protocols and alternatives.

As your doula, my intention is to bring kindness, compassion, and wisdom as you ride the wild waves of these significant transitions. Birth and parenting are deeply nuanced, yet our culture often judges and labels choices as good or bad, safe or dangerous. I strive to push past the noise and limiting views and get into the real, layered conversations that help shape the foundation of a new (or expanding) family. Every birth and parenting journey is unique, and attempting to replicate someone else’s experience is a disservice.

When I sit with families, what always comes through is that your own values, history, and intuition carry immense weight, more than you may realize. You already possess a deep well of knowledge. I want to encourage you to trust that.

If this sounds like the kind of support you envision, let’s chat and see if we are a good fit.
