Loss is defined personally and my role is never to determine whether or not your loss or grief “counts.” I’ve listed some examples below of people who may benefit from a reproductive bereavement doula, but this is not an exhaustive list.
People who have or are experiencing:

• news that their pregnancy is not viable

• fatal diagnosis for the pregnant person

• fatal diagnosis for a baby

• stillbirth

• death of a child

• death of a partner during pregnancy or postpartum

• loss of identity

• difficult birth experiences

• sudden change in dis/ability status

• abortion

• infertility

I support anyone experiencing reproductive loss including birthing people, partners, and people who want to start families.

On a case-by-case basis, I am also able to support children impacted by reproductive loss.

No. The option will remain available to you, but you are never expected or obligated to participate in any type of ritual or processing activity. At all times, you are in control of what your bereavement support looks like.

I do not provide therapy as this is outside of my scope of practice. This means I do not diagnose or treat psychiatric disorders or apply therapy-based techniques.

I provide personalized, companion-based support for those looking for non-medical approaches to grief either in addition to or in lieu of therapy or psychiatry.

For bereavement support, I offer sliding scale and donation based payments. The suggested rate is $30-80 per hour.

If cost is a barrier, I encourage you to reach out anyway. Whenever possible, I will work with you.

The timeline is largely up to you. I can provide single sessions or I can support you for weeks or months. Additionally, I acknowledge that grief is not linear and some people may benefit from bereavement support years after the fact. I offer support no matter when your loss occurred.
