NERVOUS SYSTEM DOULA
I’m Not Your Actual Birth Doula — But I Am Here for You
I know nervous systems, I know about the deep intelligence that lives inside us and how early experiences shape us.
I’ve had the privilege of assisting in Kate White’s Pre- and Perinatal Birth Dynamics training here in Australia, a profound journey into the earliest layers of human experience.
This work has expanded my understanding of how the experiences around conception, pregnancy, birth, and the immediate postpartum period leave lasting imprints on our nervous systems, attachment patterns, and overall wellbeing.
Through this lens, I offer something different.
Not necessarily birth plans or hospital bags.
But embodied support to help you tune in, slow down, and remember your own wisdom, before birth, after birth, or even as you explore the echoes of your own birth story.
What I Offer For Expecting Parents
We’ll work together to build safety, regulation, and awareness to support a more connected, informed, and embodied birth experience. This is about reducing the risk of trauma for both you and your baby while deepening your connection to your body and your instincts.
I want to help you:
-
Understand your nervous system and what it needs to feel safe
-
Create rituals to honour your journey and transitions
-
Get clear on your boundaries, around visitors, touch, choices, and procedures
-
Feel into what kind of movement your body craves (or resists)
-
Choose music or sound that supports your system
-
Recognize the vitality and the knowing of your blueprint and differentiate from the imprints that impact you
-
Explore your relationship with consent, power, and choice
For New Parents or Adults Processing Their Own Births
Using somatic, relational, and trauma-informed approaches, I help you gently explore and work with and make sense of the imprints of birth, whether you’re recovering from a difficult birth or noticing how your own birth story still lives in your body.
This may include:
-
Nervous system regulation and integration
-
Gentle touch and bodywork
-
Support for C-section scar healing
-
Space to grieve, remember, and repair
-
Reflection on what went well, what didn’t, and where your power was
-
A return to your inner wild woman, your embodied knowing
My Approach
I’m not here to “fix” you. I’m here to support your unfolding, to help you feel more at home in your body, more connected to your choices, and more in touch with the ancient wisdom that lives inside you.
Because birth is not just a medical event.
It’s a rite of passage.
You deserve to be met, fully, gently, and powerfully, wherever you are on that path.
