Utilizing a holistic, individualized approach to prevent & treat pain — pregnancy & beyond. As a mother of two, doctor of physical therapy, pre/postnatal corrective exercise specialist & certified yoga teacher — it is my mission to make health & wellness a priority for mothers in an intentional, sustainable way.

Hi, I'm Dr. Abigail Andres, but you can call me Abby. I'm a pelvic floor and obstetric physical therapist with over 12 years of experience. I'm currently seeing clients through telehealth, for clients that are in Ohio, including Columbus, Toledo, Cleveland, and Cincinnati as well as all the towns in between. I'm passionate about giving clients access to exceptional physical therapy services in a way that fits into your schedule best. We are all busy, and taking time to drive to and from an appointment takes time. I can give you expert physical therapy care from the comfort of your own home. Whether you are looking to improve your bowel or bladder control, prepare for labor and delivery, recover from having your baby, or work to improve your pelvic pain, I’m here to help you reach your goals so you can live your best life.

As a dedicated doula, I am committed to continuous learning and staying abreast of the latest advancements in childbirth support. Embracing a philosophy of inclusivity, I hold no biases towards race, religion, sex, orientation, or any other defining characteristic, with the hope that every client receives personalized, respectful, and unbiased care. My mission is to ensure that your journey through childbirth is not only supported with the latest knowledge but also infused with the hope of a respectful and inclusive experience, tailored to your individual needs!

Hello! My name is Yadira Mendez. I have a B.s in Health Sciences and a minor in Integrative Approaches to Health and Wellness. I am a Patient Care Associate at the James and am CPR certified. I have helped my sister with her two daughters when they were born, one being premature and having had a NICU stay. Working with children has always been one of my passions and I spent time volunteering at church summer camps in the babies and toddlers’ room. I enjoy reading, playing video games with my husband and cuddling our kitten Boba on my free time.

Thank you for stopping by. I am a holistic nurse, doula, childbirth educator, lactation educator, student midwife and an educator here at Birth Fearlessly Academy. I have 10 years of experience supporting families and mother-baby dyads. ​ Above all else, I am a mother to two beautiful children myself. After having two undisturbed home-births and two very different birth experiences - I understand just how essential having the proper support is during these vulnerable events. My goal is to help bridge the gap in education, care and support that families receive. There is no reason every woman should not have an empowering and memorable motherhood experience! ​ Many times, I support families beginning pre-conception, during birth and throughout their fourth trimester. I absolutely love these lasting connections! If you are searching for a holistic-minded doula to support you throughout your unique journey, to lift you up and nurture you - I would love to be that doula for you. I hope to meet many more sisters and life-long friends; for we are the only ones who can create our own village.

I dream of a labor day for women ans families where everything goes exactly as planned. I am here for the 4th trimester.

I generally don't respond to requests through here, I can easily be found through various locations. My journey into midwifery started with the birth of my first child Oliana who was born by cesarean after planning a homebirth. That birth left me excited to be a mother but also confused about healing and breastfeeding. I had a lot of support in the postpartum including from our local ICAN (International Cesarean Awareness Network) chapter. Community was important in healing and building me up as a mother during my early parenting years and community is what drives me today. In 2009 I attended Birthing From Within training in Austin learning the art of mentoring new parents through the childbearing year. My youngest child Silas was born at home in 2011, I stepped back from birth work during my pregnancy and the years after he was born. I found I needed a lot of quiet contemplation during this time and he needed a lot of time with me. In 2014 I attended toLabor doula and activist training and started a midwifery apprenticeship with CHOICE. In 2018 I became a CPM (Certified Professional Midwife) specialized in out of hospital birth. I live in Columbus with my two children. We have a thriving backyard garden and are into composting and sustainable growing practices. I’m an avid reader and researcher. I try to keep up with current research around the pregnancy year and take multiple trainings a year to broaden my knowledge base. I support clients seeking homebirth and monitrice care in the Columbus, Ohio metro area and offer online coaching sessions to people who live outside of my radius of roughly an hour. I have a special interest in families planning a VBAC and HBAC (Vaginal/Home Birth After Cesarean). I am an Army veteran serving 4 years on active duty in Germany and 3 years in the reserves in Columbus. I have an undergraduate degree from Ohio State in Political Science and Women’s Studies (now Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies).
