Compassionate, nurturing, and knowledgeable, I provide women in the East Bay with support before, during, and after labor.


My devoted Zen practice and extensive training in labor support, yoga, hypnosis, and pain management make me an indispensable part of a labor team.


Please explore my site to learn about me and the services I provide. I look forward to hearing from you.
