Birth Packages
I believe finances should not be a deterrent to having access to the support you need. If a payment plan is more accessible for you, I ask for a non refundable $150 deposit before our first prenatal meeting. Please reach out as needed so we can discuss alternate options.
Terms and Conditions for birth services can be found here.

Perinatal Mood Disorder Counseling
Sliding scale $50-$75/ hour.
My degrees are in social work and psychology and outside of my doula role I am a mental health professional. I tailored my Masters program to perinatal mood disorders and infant attachment. If you or someone you know is struggling with the adjustment to parenthood, connecting with baby, or feel like their mental health is impacted this is a space we can meet via in person or Zoom to process, educate, and come up with a plan moving forward. As always, send me an email if this is something you are interested in or would like more information about.

You can buy these solo or add to part of the Inclusive Care birth package.

Be sure to let your birth team know ahead of time while in labor that you would like to keep your placenta for encapsulating purposes. Hospitals have different procedures.
