BIRTH PROCESSING & PREPAREDNESS FOR FAMILIES
The wound is where the Light enters.
-Rumi
Golden Seam Midwifery draws inspiration from the Japanese practice of kintsugi — the repair of broken pottery with golden leaf, highlighting the seams between pieces.
The result is beautifully whole and functionally perfect. So are we, traumatic birth and all. It is my work to help you embody this truth.
Birth Processing
Share your birth story with me to help you move through grief, exploring aspects that are painful and also those you remember with joy.
Pregnancy, Birth, and Postpartum Preparedness
Explore your options — tailored to your individual needs and pregnancy/birth history — for pregnancy and birth care in the Philadelphia region and beyond and prepare for the postpartum period.
Support Groups
Gather with others who have had difficult childbirth experiences; find community, support, and the reassurance that you are not alone.
Speaking Engagements
Are you and your colleagues interested in learning more about trauma in birth? Invite me to come speak at your institution.
The more I exposed the parts of me that felt broken, the stronger and lighter and healthier I felt.
