In March 2002 I became a mother to Arthur who was born at the Piedmont Women's Health Center in Chapel Hill (now called Women's Birth and Wellness Center).
In 2003 I started to became aware of my dream - to help pregnant women be more relaxed and in their bodies; to ease some of the discomforts of pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum; as well as to help women avoid the downward spiral of pitocin, epidural, and c-section. In 2004 when my son was two years old, I entered massage school at Body Therapy Institute, Siler City, NC. In March 2005 I became a Licensed Massage and Bodywork Therapist (NC #5345) and got my long awaited 2nd positive pregnancy test. Gradually as my family has gotten older, I've added doula work and parent-infant massage. I look forward to being part of your families transformation and growth.
My birth credentials include: Certified Pre & Perinatal Massage Therapy with Carole Osborne-Sheets, Body Therapy Associates, Certified Infant Massage Instructor (CIMI) with Loving Touch Foundation, certified hypno doula with HypnoBabies, Student Midwife, DONA trained doula, trained labor assistant with toLabor (formerly ALACE), Local Sponsor for toLabor Labor Assistant Training (June 2009 - May 2010), Childbirth Educator in training with International Birth and Wellness Project (formerly ALACE), ABMP member, graduate of nationally recognized Body Therapy Institute, and NC License #5345. I also hold a BA from High Point College in Sociology.
My two children were both attended by midwives and doulas. My 9 year old son was born at the Women’s Birth and Wellness Center in Chapel Hill and my 5 year old daughter was born at home with a CPM. When my children were small I was an La Leche League leader for 5 years.
For more information about how my husband and I chose our family name and to view some beautiful pictures of our namesake Mt. Katahdin follow the link. When I'm not at a birth or doing massage I enjoy riding bikes and camping with my family.
