ROOTED HOLISTIC SESSIONS:
Using vibration, voice, and deep listening to support your journey
These one-on-one sessions are designed to support your body, mind, and spirit as you prepare for, or integrate after, the transformative experience of birth.
We begin by setting a shared intention and discussing any physical, emotional, or energetic concerns you’d like to explore. From there, you’ll rest fully clothed, surrounded by soft music and a calm atmosphere as we move into gentle healing practices.
I incorporate tools such as singing bowls, vocal resonance, and sound vibration, which help to prepare the body for labor by softening tension and activating your own voice and breath.
In labor, your sound is one of your most powerful allies, and these sessions offer a chance to reconnect with your voice in a safe, supported way.
Each session is intuitively tailored, and may include breathwork, guided meditation, energy work, or ceremonial elements depending on your needs
Afterward, we’ll take time to process and integrate the experience, addressing any lingering questions or insights that arise. My intention is to create a safe and nurturing space where you can release, restore, and feel more grounded in your journey, whether you’re preparing for birth or healing in the postpartum.

PLACENTA MEDICINE AND ART :
Honoring the womb’s wisdom, nourishing the body’s return
The placenta, often called the “Tree of Life,” is more than a biological organ, it is your baby’s first companion, a sacred guide, and the bridge of nourishment, oxygen, and protection throughout pregnancy. From the moment of conception, it holds space for growth and life, preparing your baby for their journey earthside.
Across cultures and time, the placenta has been revered not only for its vital function, but also for its spiritual and ancestral significance, recognized as a vessel of life force and a link between spirit and matter. From the Rapa Nui of Easter Island to the Māori of Aotearoa to Navajo traditions, the placenta has long been honored as a symbol of connection to lineage, land, and identity.
Today, placenta encapsulation offers a meaningful way to continue this reverence, while nourishing the postpartum body from within. Once steamed, dried, and placed into capsules, the placenta returns vital nutrients to the birthing person’s system, including iron, B vitamins, and hormones that are believed to:
Support hormonal balance
Improve mood and emotional well-being
Enhance energy and overall recovery
Promote healthy milk production
Replenish what was lost through birth
This practice is chosen by many not only for its physiological benefits, but also as a ceremonial act of reclaiming postpartum care rooted in tradition, intuition, and love.
Placenta encapsulation is a gentle way to carry forward the sacred connection between body, baby, and earth ~ honoring what has nourished life and allowing it to nourish you in return.
As part of this offering, you may also receive a Placenta Art. A vibrant, one-of-a-kind impression of your own placenta made with food-grade natural coloring. This piece is gifted with love to celebrate and honor your unique journey, should you wish to receive it.
Placenta encapsulation is more than a service. It is a continuation of the bond between you and your baby, and a gentle reminder of the power that lives within you still.

ROOTED MENTORING CALLS for Holistic Doulas:
These one-on-one, one-hour mentoring calls are a supportive space for Holistic Doulas to reflect, ask questions, and grow into their birthwork with more clarity and confidence.
Whether you are just beginning your path or stepping deeper into your work, these sessions are designed to meet you where you are. Together we can explore what is most alive in your journey - from supporting clients and holding boundaries, to prenatal visits, services, and integrating the deeper teachings of birthwork.
A big part of this mentorship is helping you navigate how to bring the wisdom of The Matrona into ordinary reality - into real-life work and a sustainable business. Many doulas feel the depth of the teachings, but need support translating that wisdom into practical steps that allow them to offer their work in the world.
This mentorship is also something very personal to me. I want to offer the kind of guidance and support that I wish I had when I was starting this journey. Building a path in birthwork and creating a sustainable business has taken me years of trial and error, learning through experience, and supporting more than 450 births. It would be an honor to walk alongside you as a mentor and help make that path clearer for you.
During our time together we may explore topics such as:
• Integrating The Matrona teachings into your real-life practice
• Navigating client situations and holding space in birthwork
• Structuring your doula offerings and services
• Setting up pricing and sustainable packages
• Finding and connecting with clients in your community
• Building the foundations of your business
Including practical tools such as:
• Platforms that support your work and your website
• Organizing client notes, due dates, and prenatal visits
• Setting up your services and offerings in a clear way
• Testimonials, contracts, and website basics
Each session is rooted in The Matrona’s teachings while honoring your unique path, voice, and mission.
Because birthwork doesn’t follow a strict timeline, these mentoring calls are intentionally flexible. You can book them as you need them - for support, inspiration, planning, or integration at any stage of your journey.
Mentoring Call Options:
Single Session – $100
3-Call Package – $250
6-Call Package – $500

POSTPARTUM CLOSING CEREMONY:
Honoring your journey with ritual and intention
With deep respect to all traditions, I like to offer ceremonies that can help us remember and reconnect with the power of ritual, community, and song during this important time in our lives, creating profound moments of celebration and healing.
This ritual is done in a sacred space, in the comfort of your home if possible. While big pots of herbs are boiling on the stove, the birth story is told and is witnessed in the highest regard.
An herbal bath follows, inviting a reconnection with Pachamama ~ Mother Earth. Songs are offered with the drum or rattle to support the release and integration of the birth experience, honoring what has passed, letting go of the former self, and clearing the path for the new cycle ahead.
The new mother/parent is then lovingly brought back to the bedroom and rebozos are then wrapped around the body and gently pulled to physically close the energetic centers of the body and the bones.
The ceremony concludes with an opportunity for the new mother/parent to talk about their experience, helping to process and integrate the depth of the ritual.
Duration 2-3 hours
Available in English and Spanish
