I found Katie while looking for a doula to support an attempted VBAC after a very traumatic csection with my first child 6 years ago. I also had a blended family where I needed a support person who wasn't judgemental of non traditional families.
Katie was wonderful and supportive from the first meeting. She was great about givving me questions about my healthcare providers policies that would support the birth I needed.
When I experienced 14 hours of prodromal labor, which continued for weeks and triggered a ton of trauma from my first birth experience, Katie was patient and gentle and did so much to help guide me through the experience.
She also was very supportive when I elected to schedule a c-section following 3 weeks of prodromal labor. Having her present at the surgery did so much to keep my partner and I calm, and truly helped heal the trauma of my first birth by reframing similar experiences in my second birth in a different view.
I would recommend Katie as a doula to any mama ever, but especially for women who have experienced previous birth trauma.
