I believe that womens knowledge of healing is a tool for empowerment, and that homebirth is a natural extension of our right to make informed choices about our healthcare. I encourage women to become their own healers and to explore our intuitive wisdom as part of our diverse experience. I believe that childbirth is a time when women and their families can embrace the physical, spiritual and emotional as one, and that it is normal, natural and a supreme rite of passage. I have studied multicultural views of the body, medicinal herbs, homeopathy, and diverse aspects of healing. I am a graduate of the National Midwifery Institute, hold a BA in Womens studies from UC Berkeley, and am a certified acupressure practitioner. In addition to homebirth services, I offer hospital midwifery support, well-woman care, nutritional counseling, childbirth education classes, and a sliding scale fee.
