Cesarean moms deserve better.
When your c-section incision is not your deepest birth wound.
I am here for you.
I offer support groups, workshops, education, and individual coaching sessions to help you heal emotionally after cesarean birth.
My offerings are trauma-informed and available online.
Meet Allison, the Cesarean Doula
Allison is an educator, speaker, writer, certified postpartum doula and VBAC doula, and trauma-informed facilitator and space holder.
She is also a mother who had an undesired, unexpected, and traumatic cesarean birth.
Attempting to heal emotionally after her traumatic birth made her aware of how few resources exist to support c-section mothers and families.
Her mission is to make it accessible and affordable to heal emotionally after cesarean birth.
Offerings
Cesarean Birth Story Healing
In a Birth Story Healing Session we will process your birth story together, identifying and understanding areas that are causing you emotional pain. I will offer tenderness, care, and intentionality, insights, and practices to help you repair with yourself, your baby, your spouse, and the world. All sessions offered online via Zoom.
VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean) Preparation
If you’re considering a VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean), I invite you to schedule a private VBAC coaching session with me via Zoom. If you’ve decided to pursue a VBAC, this session will empower you with information and resources for a positive outcome. If you are undecided, this is an opportunity to have an authentic, evidence-based conversation about the risks and benefits of VBAC for you.
Your cesarean pregnancy and birth can feel sacred, empowering, connected, and even primal. Work with me to plan your cesarean birth and your cesarean pregnancy on your terms.
Sacred Cesarean Planning
A live, monthly online support group for mothers healing from the emotional and physical wounds of surgical birth. Each month, we focus on a different area of cesarean-related healing. Attend monthly or drop-in when it feels right.
