With Guided Hands Massage & Birth Services

Advanced Massage, Birth Doula Services, Childbirth Education, Meditation, and more! It's important to me that you feel safe, supported and empowered.

If you're here for massage therapy or to learn how to better your pregnancy and birth experiences, it’s important to know I've taken the time to learn my trades well. In addition to continually furthering my education in field related studies, every new body in my office is a chance to refine my intuition, knowledge and craft. It’s a privilege and unique opportunity to share the information I've learned that can help you reach your desired goals. This learning is a two way street, because even though I'm excited to share with you, I'm also gaining priceless knowledge that can only be attained through experience. I can only do so much in your sessions, classes and consultations. I believe educating you on how to help yourself is where the road to self-advocacy and optimum wellness begins. I can help you understand the functionality of your body, while teaching you to tune into and discover your own body awareness. This enables you to take caring for your body in your own hands. You'll be able to knowledgeably move forward with a plan and the confidence to reach your goals.

Birth is just the beginning — here’s how I can help you heal in those tender first weeks. 🤍

Imagine this: You’re newly postpartum. You’ve just done the most incredible thing—bringing a baby into the world. Now you have this beautiful new little one who depends on you for every ounce of nourishment, care, and love.

Meanwhile, your body is readjusting. Your shoulders and neck ache from hours of holding, feeding, and staring in wonder at your baby. Your center of gravity has shifted. This change in posture affects your back and hips. You might notice swelling or stagnant fluids—whether from IVs during labor or simply your body changing after birth. All of this is completely normal.

As your doula and massage therapist, I come to you in those first tender weeks postpartum. We work around your baby’s needs— feeding, snuggling, resting— while giving your body the care it deserves.

I can even show you how to nurse in a side-lying position while I continue to release tension in your back, hips, neck, and shoulders.

This is truly customized care. I’d love to be a part of your recovery team! I offer postpartum in home massage packages. I open just 2 spots per month for postpartum massage packages. Book your due month now — spots fill quickly. www.withguidedhands.com

✨ 5am, post-birth, rooftop selfie.
Still smiling. Still grateful. Still showing up.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted an after birth selfie, so here’s a little reminder: this work is raw, beautiful, sacred—and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. 💛

Labor Positions Using an Exercise Ball | Mock Labor Flow Part 2

The use of an exercise ball in labor is a tool for comfort, alignment, and progress. In this video and carousel post, I share supportive ways to use an exercise ball during labor, based on real-time labor flow and movement.

Featured positions include:
• Forward leaning to ease tension while using gravity to encourage progress
• Sitting on the ball in the shower to combine warmth, water, and upright movement
• Standing lunge with ball support to create asymmetry and space

DOULA TIP ✨Remember, don’t pay too much attention to your labor sensations until it demands more focus. Then, use your breath and movement to help you manage as things get stronger. These positions are gentle and allow you to move intuitively. They offer physical relief while promoting optimal positioning and descent of the baby.

Grateful for Barb’s invitation to sit in on a beautiful, family-centered birth class today. Her years of experience, extensive knowledge, and heart showed up in every detail. It was such a gift to observe, connect, and witness the energy of families preparing together.

Bonus! I was able to reconnect with a couple of familiar faces.

Birth work isn’t just about the moment of birth—it’s about showing up, learning from each other, and staying rooted in community. Today was exactly that. ✨

When early labor begins, one of the most important things I tell my clients is don’t rush it. If you think labor might be starting, try to rest. Don’t try to “get it going.” If you can ignore it—do. Your body will let you know when it’s truly time to pay attention.

Once that shift happens and things become more regular and intensify, gently moving your body can help you manage your labor as sensations become stronger. Remember, a moving pelvis in labor creates space for baby to find their best position and descend.

▫️I created a short video with real-life suggestions for positions you can try in early labor. These aren’t just poses—they’re invitations to breathe, open, and settle into your rhythm.

In this video and post, you’ll see:
• Forward-Leaning Positions
• Movement Options in the Bath
• Standing Lunge for Pelvis Opening

Each one supports progress and your comfort—while keeping you grounded and connected to your intuition.

This is what birth can look like:
Steady presence. Quiet teamwork. A deep sense of rhythm in the room.

In this moment, I was listening to her breath, tuning into her energy, and watching the midwife’s cues — we moved with the flow as it shifted, and she prepared to push.

Every birth is different, but my role stays the same:
I listen, adapt, guide, and hold space gently.

If you’re looking for an experienced doula who will bring a calm, grounded, and knowledgeable presence to your birth space — I’d love to connect.

Birth doesn’t have to feel clinical. It can feel held. With strength in her body and trust in the process, she moved, breathed, and brought her baby earthside. She was surrounded by love, anchored by her partner’s steady presence, and gently supported every step of the way — it was a powerful, connected journey. As her doula, I was honored to walk beside her—to hold space, offer guidance, and witness her bring her baby earthside.✨ These are the moments that stay with you.

🤍 Want to know what keeps my heart full and my days overflowing? Three of my biggest passions are family, birth, and homeschooling.

Family always comes first—everything else follows.

Birthwork is part of what puts food on the table and a roof over our heads, and I feel so lucky that the work I do also fills my heart. Supporting families through such a powerful moment in their lives is something I never take for granted.

We’ve been homeschooling since day one. We stick to our core subjects five days a week, and during the school year, we stay connected through a couple of homeschool groups that are really close to our hearts.

Swipe to see what fills my days and fuels my heart. Here are some photos of a few of my favorite things.

Are you a fellow homeschooler, birthworker, or just someone who loves the chaos of family life? Say hi!

With Guided Hands

Creating a birth team that supports your desires for birth is of utmost importance during this incredibly transitional and sacred time in your life. I'm here to support you in your choices. I can help prepare you to knowledgeably advocate for your desired birth experience. I will be there on the day of your birth supporting whatever needs may come up for you during that time. I can support a family who is birthing naturally at home, hospital, or birth center, labors with pitocin, an epidural, or other medications in labor, or has a C-section. I will stay with you for the first few hours postpartum to help you settle in. Beyond this I offer childbirth education, prenatal and postpartum massage, massage classes for partners, advanced aromatherapy, belly binding, and more. Please visit my website for a full list of services or visit me for a free no-obligation consultation. I’d love to meet with you!
