Welcome, Mama!

​​​

Are you looking to take control of your motherhood journey by learning how to navigate the unknown, the unexpected, and the intensity of childbirth and beyond? I believe that your experience should be unique, meaningful, and enjoyable for you!  

​

Through mindful practices, self-discovery, and evidence-based care and education I guide moms just like you to reconnect with what brings them joy and renewal—allowing them to release the need for perfection, embrace the ebb and flow of motherhood, and be fully present for the moments that matter.

-Gretchen

Hey there!

My name is Gretchen

I am a Birth Doula, Childbirth Educator, and a Perinatal Behavioral Health Coach with a Masters degree in Developmental Psychology. I love working with mothers who are feeling lost, unprepared, and overwhelmed with all there is to learn about pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Motherhood is a journey of growth, transformation, and deep intuition—and I’m here to help you embrace every step. 

 

As a current military spouse, some of my favorite clients have been fellow military spouses. There is nothing quite like connecting with someone who truly understands the unique situation you are in, especially when your spouse is on deployment. I happily offer military discounts to any active service member or spouse!

 

Through guidance, advocacy, and unwavering support, I’ll empower you to trust yourself, navigate change with confidence, and step into your natural strengths as a mother. You are blooming into exactly who you’re meant to be—let’s nurture that together!

"We would definitely recommend Gretchen! We hired Gretchen for our third pregnancy. She is very knowledgeable presenting different evidence based facts for pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. One of our favorite highlights from Gretchen was the support she gave to me and my husband throughout. She was hands on teaching my husband effective coping moves for me and she had a great bag of tricks for coping in the hospital. But most importantly to us was the advocacy she educated us on during pregnancy and delivery. Gretchen also took amazing pictures of labor and delivery of our baby girl. She really made the entire process as "easy" as unmedicated labor can be."​
