Midwives & Home Birth Midwives Near Me in Johnson City, TN

As your doula, I’m your non-medical teammate from bump to baby. I bring a DACM background, midwifery training, and deep somatic skills to offer steady, practical support—not needles. Prenatal: We clarify your birth values, map options, and rehearse pain-coping (breath, movement, vocalization). I coach your partner in acupressure, counterpressure, positioning, and other comfort measures (such as back pressure, heat/cold, and the use of a birth ball) so they feel confident and helpful. Labor & Birth: I create a calm field: rhythmic touch, position changes for progress, temperature/lighting tweaks, hydration cues, and clear communication with your team. I help you stay grounded, heard, and in choice. Postpartum: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)- informed recovery—warming meals, gentle herbal teas/compresses, rest planning, and somatic down-regulation—to support hormones, bleeding, and mood in the early weeks. What I don’t do: clinical tasks, medical advice, or acupuncture at the birth. What I do exceptionally well: nervous system steadiness, pain-coping support, and partner coaching so your birth feels collaborative, supported, and yours.

I was born and raised in Asheville, NC and am so proud to call this town my home. I have always had a passion for science and a specific fascination with the human body and its capabilities. In 2013, I graduated from AB-Tech with an associate's degree in Medical Laboratory Technology and in 2019, I graduated from Winston-Salem State University with a bachelor's degree in Clinical Laboratory Science. Having a doula with my third birth made such a difference in my experience that I wanted to shout it from the rooftops. I wanted to share my birth story with everyone I came into contact with and when I realized I could be that difference in other people's stories, I couldn't find doula training fast enough! In September of 2023 I became certified through ProDoula as a birth, postpartum and infant care doula with more to come! I am so excited to bring my support services to my community and create lasting relationships in the process.
