Katelynn Galvin Birth & Postpartum Doula in Linden, CA
About Katelynn
I’m Katie Galvin, Postpartum Doula and Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutritional Practitioner. After my own experience with “postpartum anxiety & depression,” (which was really undiagnosed postpartum thyroiditis) I decided to become a functional practitioner to help other moms navigate common postpartum hormonal changes using a holistic, body-mind-spirit approach to pregnancy and postpartum. Conventional medicine often fails new moms by dismissing their concerns or offering pills as the only solutions to common (but not normal) symptoms. I’m in process of certification as an INNATE Postpartum Care Practitioner. Unmedicated/Physiologic Birth Education course (self-paced) also available.
