Lauren Verica

Accepts insurance

I'm Lauren, a birth doula and photographer based in Milwaukie, Oregon, just outside of Portland. I grew up in Delaware, but have lived on the West Coast since 2017. I am a mom to one child, two dogs, and a cat. I love reading, getting outside, and exploring new cities. I love trying out new hobbies: currently, I'm learning how to crochet! I trained through Doula Love Portland's DONA International and OHA Approved program. My practice is trauma-informed, inclusive, and evidence-based. I honor all paths to parenthood and believe that every person deserves compassionate, culturally responsive care during their most vulnerable moments. I believe birth is not just a beginning. It is a continuation of a lineage - of wisdom, of strength, of becoming. I am here to hold space for you to make your own choices while feeling supported, safe, and seen.

As a first time mom, I was searching for someone who could be an advocate for my husband and I. Someone who could guide us through the birthing process and the many decisions that came with it in a moment of high emotion. Lauren was the calming and sound voice of reason and compassion that we needed. In the prenatal period she patiently answered all my questions, and even sent me literature on things we discussed for further research. Together, we built my ideal birth plan, and she created an easy to follow worksheet that I could reference and bring with me to the hospital. When the time finally came, and the birth plan completely derailed, Lauren remained calm and was there every step of the way. During an extremely long and exhausting labor process, Lauren was there providing support through suggestions, positioning, counter pressure, etc. And with every change in the birth plan and decision that came along the way, Lauren helped us understand our options and gave me peace of mind that every decision made was founded in fact and not emotion. From an emotional standpoint, Lauren also kept reminding me that I was one step closer to meeting my baby. This also helped calm my anxious mind as things progressed. After an unexpected C-section, we finally held our baby, and though things did not go as planned, we took solace in knowing that we made the best choices for our family. I cannot thank Lauren enough for the support she provided, and can't imagine how my husband and I would have dealt with the situation without her. If you are a first time mom, or even a second or third, I highly recommend her and her doula services!

Emma Bowers

As a holistic birth and postpartum doula, I offer grounded, intuitive support, empowering and nurturing new and growing families through the transformative portal of birth. My approach to care is informed by my deep studies of physiologic birth, herbalism and a decade working in childcare, the arts, journalism and food and retail. In our work together, we will be tuning to the cues from the body and centering nourishment, emotional wellbeing and connection to our natural rhythms. Together we'll take each moment as it arrives, looking to make the most out of all the tools available to help you move through each threshold in the way that is most true to your inner knowing. Rooted in the wisdom of Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicine, the postpartum care I offer provides deep nourishment and helps to cultivate warmth, ease and restorative rest and connection. My hope is that this support helps to nourish families and communities so that we might reclaim the ceremony of birth in all of its forms and create a new collective future of autonomy, connection and wholeness. When not with families, you can find me likely making something with my hands, either in the garden, knitting, at home in my kitchen, or crafting some herbal concoction. I treasure my time spent near water, at the river, or on the coast in Northern California or my native New England.

Emma brings a kind and warm presence to her work as a doula. Our family loved having her care for us all during our postpartum period. She kept me well stocked with herbal teas, sitz baths, and dropped by nourishing food. She was able to help wherever we needed and often without me even having to ask- like doing laundry and folding my, and my kids clothes/finding where they all go without me saying anything (I found this truly magical!). Emma was also so great with my older kiddo (3) , our new baby, and our dog. She always came to our home prepared with rituals to nourish and ground us. Thank you Emma! <3

I had the pleasure of working with Lorrie as my doula for the birth of my first child, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the start, she put my mind at ease, building my confidence through her deep knowledge of the birthing process. She helped me navigate my options to create a flexible birth plan that felt exactly right for me. Our weekly virtual prenatal yoga sessions were a lifesaver—not only for stress reduction but for mental preparation. Lorrie tailored every pose to my needs and taught me breathing techniques that became essential during labor. She even prepared my support team so they knew exactly how to show up for me. My goal was to labor at home as long as possible. Thanks to Lorrie’s calm guidance through intense contractions, I arrived at the hospital 8cm dilated! Even when things took an unexpected turn resulting in an emergency C-section and a NICU stay, Lorrie stayed by my side. She gave me the tools to advocate for myself and provided constant encouragement during a difficult time. Lorrie provides holistic, culturally appropriate care that every birthing person deserves. I’m now a healthy mama to a healthy baby boy, and I can't wait to have her support me again for my next child.

Hey, I’m Elliot. I’m a THW‑certified doula based in Portland, Oregon. I’ve always been drawn to supporting pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood, and I’m honored to walk alongside families during such a meaningful, transformative time. As a trans man, I also recognize how often queer people and their families are underrepresented and underserved in medical settings. My practice centers LGBT+ parents and is grounded in trauma‑informed, non‑judgmental care through a lens of reproductive justice—so birthing parents and their partners feel empowered to make informed decisions about their bodies and their care. I bring patience, calm, and genuine curiosity to every birth space. I’m a steady listener, an advocate when needed, and a gentle presence when quiet support is best. When I’m off‑call, you’ll find me making art, writing, cuddling my cats, or happily bumbling through a new videogame. If you’re seeking affirming support for your pregnancy and birth, I’d love to connect. I completed my initial training through Cornerstone Doula Trainings, and am fully THW certified through Mother Tree Birth. I've taken a cultural competency course -- including trauma informed care, interprofessional collaboration, and HIPAA training –, also through Mother Tree Birth; and I've also completed an Oral Health course and an adult/child CPR training course. I’m happy to provide documentation for all of the above, feel free to ask!

Katie Beaver

Hello, I’m currently working toward completing my doula certification, and I’m looking for birthing parents who would be willing to have me support them as one of my first solo clients. I’m just two births away from completing my certification, and I would be incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be invited into such an intimate and meaningful part of someone’s life. I believe every birthing person deserves to feel heard, respected, informed, safe, and supported. The birthing parent deserves to have a voice in their birth, to ask questions, to change your mind, to be vulnerable, to advocate for yourself, and ultimately to have autonomy over your own body and your own experience. My role isn’t to tell you how to birth. It’s to stand beside you, listen to you, remind you of your strength, help you feel supported in your choices, and be there when things feel overwhelming. I want to be the person in your corner who can say, “You’re not alone. I’m right here.” I serve the Portland/ Vancouver Metro area and am currently available to support families with due dates in October, January and beyond. I know that being a newer doula means I’m still learning, growing, and finding my way — but what I can promise is that I will show up with my whole heart. I will listen. I will learn. I will respect you. And I will care deeply about the experience you have. With Kindness, Katie

Going into the birth of my first child, I had a lot of anxiety surrounding the entire experience. Katie was such a calming, nurturing, and supportive presence throughout the entire process. She walked me through every scenario, helped me understand what was happening, and constantly encouraged me with positive reassurance throughout labor. She was incredibly hands-on and attentive, helping me through my back labor contractions and reminding me to breathe through each one. Katie made me feel strong, capable, and powerful as I brought my baby girl earthside. I truly don’t think I could have gotten through my birthing experience without Katie. I am so grateful for her support, encouragement, and presence during such an important and life-changing moment. She made me feel safe, heard, and confident every step of the way.
