About me

Hi I am Kala, I am a doula that supports life’s most sacred transitions—birth, postpartum, and end of life. I am a military veteran with an MPH in Public Health along with multiple certifications in holistic practices such as yoga, Pilates, sound therapy, and health coaching—each reflecting her commitment to supporting people in ways that honor their unique needs. For more than 16 years, I have followed a deep calling to guide young people and families through health education and holistic wellness services. My work is both trauma-informed and healing-centered, shaped by my upbringing amongst community healers and background in health coaching and sustained by my dedication to personal self-care.
