✨ Celebrating World Doula Week ✨

What are the benefits of having a birth doula?

A birth doula offers something truly unique: continuous, unwavering support throughout pregnancy, labor, and the postpartum period. Unlike other members of your care team, a doula is there just for you, building a relationship over time and showing up with familiarity, trust, and presence when it matters most.

During labor, this support becomes especially tangible, as a birth doula remains hands-on through every contraction to offer physical comfort, emotional reassurance, and steady guidance, while nurses and medical staff must divide their attention among multiple patients.

This consistent, dedicated care creates a grounded, supported experience that can make all the difference in how you move through your birth and into early parenthood.

Our team is grateful for every family that puts their trust in us to provide such crucial and valuable support during this most important time in their journeys!

If you are adding a little one to your family, this class is a must have. We will go over the basics of newborn care, but also teach you about the conversation that you and your newborn will have before they are able to say words.

The three hour class will have be interactive where you will be practicing the techniques we are teaching you. For that reason, we recommend that you invite any friends and family members to attend the class.

We are all full for our March class, so snag your spot in April soon!!

✨ Welcoming Julia Tarr, LCSW to our team! ✨

Hello! My name is Julia, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. As a mother of three young kids, I chose to go back to school to gain the necessary skills to support women and birthing people through all the complex pathways leading to and managing parenting. I vividly remember bringing my youngest in a carrier to the introductory session for the Master of Social Work program at UNC—where I discovered the profound impact of social work and fell in love with its purpose.

I am a cisgender white woman with a deep commitment to the inherent worth and dignity of every individual person. I endeavor to bring inclusive, trauma- informed, anti-racist, LGBTQIA+ affirming, reproductive justice, and feminist principles to the forefront of my work and life. My clinical practice draws on evidence based approaches, including Motivational Interviewing, Integrated Behavioral Health models, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, along with specialized training in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders. I maintain an active Perinatal Mental Health Certification through Postpartum Support International (PSI).

My approach centers on creating a safe, supportive place where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Together, we’ll build insight into what’s working well in your life or possibly not so well and identify areas that may need change. I deeply value the opportunity to listen to your stories, reflect on their meaning, and collaborate with you to enhance your overall well-being. I look forward to our work together.
