If you’ve ever felt frustrated by a healthcare system that doesn’t listen or leaves you feeling lost, you’re not alone. My story begins as a teenager when I was put on hormonal birth control for period problems—and when I asked about other options, I was actually laughed at.

Years later, still struggling with health issues and hoping to start a family, I discovered Fertility Awareness Methods (FAM) and began charting on my own. I was shocked that this simple, empowering option hadn’t been offered to me before.

I quickly noticed something wasn’t right with my cycles and suspected endometriosis. But when I asked for help, I was told I hadn’t been trying to conceive long enough to get tested.

After a long search, I found a charting instructor who helped me improve my charting skills and connected me with a provider who truly listened. A laparoscopy confirmed my suspicions.

After surgery, I became pregnant but sadly had three miscarriages. Almost everyone told us IVF was our best option. While I believe IVF is a wonderful option, my gut told me we needed more answers first.

With the right care, focused on me as a whole person, we eventually welcomed two healthy children.

My first postpartum journey left me feeling overwhelmed and unseen, especially with breastfeeding struggles. My second birth, a homebirth with a caring midwife, was healing and empowering. It showed me what true, respectful, evidence-based care looks like—care that puts you first, not insurance or checklists.

These experiences transformed me—not just as a mom, but as a healthcare provider.

Now, as an OT, lactation counselor, FAM instructor, and mom, I’m here to support you—through birth control choices (including FAM), charting, pregnancy, pumping, breastfeeding, and everything in between.

You deserve real information, real choices, and care that honors your values and your life. I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
