Training Documentation

credential


Relevant volunteer or advocacy work

I am from North Dakota. I have also lived in Minneapolis, MN, Providence, RI, Brooklyn, NY. Now I live in Queens, NY with my partner and 2 bunnies. I currently work as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (trauma, eating disorders, LGBTQ populations & licensed in RI, NY, and VT). I was a teen, poor, single mom. My daughter is now an adult, I run a private practice where I take insurance and am getting more into doula work! I love bike riding, foraging, reading, making zines, and reading science research. As far as doula work, I am very comfortable working with teens, LGBTQ people, single people, people in prison, immigrants, poor/low-income/working class people, & so on.

Languages Spoken

  • English

Fee Details

I believe in accessibility for all parents! I raised my daughter as a teen and single mom on public assistance and couldn't afford services like this. I offer payment plans and open to bartering and trade, as well as a sliding scale.
