Two Seasons Doula
Guiding women into deeper self awareness in birth & mothering
As a doula…
Everything I offer within my little corner of the world has stemmed from my own growth, struggles, triumphs and embodied learning.
In the wake of my own birth trauma and struggles with postpartum depression, I embarked on the journey of becoming a doula with the hope of bridging the gap in support that I felt was so severely missing for many women.
I have supported hundreds of women in their seasons of pregnancy, birth & postpartum and attended countless births. Each woman, each family and each birth were a gift, a privilege and an invitation for more growth.
My support in this space has shifted, expanded and contracted along the way and I have comfortably settled into the guidance, preparation and mentorship realm of this work.
If you are curious about my support, I encourage you to reach out. I have several offerings to suit many needs, including a bespoke doula care option. I believe each family has different needs & wishes and the beauty of this ‘work’ lies in how deeply personal it is. To be able to offer guidance that feels personalised and supportive to the families that engage me feels incredibly aligned and authentic.
Please head over to my Pregnancy & Birth page and peruse the various other offerings I bring in this season of your journey.

Motherhood Alchemy…
It felt like a very natural progression leaning into alchemy in motherhood.
With two young children myself, I’m the first to admit my relationship with mothering has not always been met with self awareness and compassion.
Raising a spirited boy (Which may otherwise fall under different labels) it was a common thought taking residency in my mind “what is the right path to support him?” Moden medicine did not feel like the approach I wanted to take, and I spent so much time deep in various supplements, play therapy and other external tools.
I identified as a short fused mother, who snapped to rage in the blink of an eye and would often go to bed riddled with tears & guilt and promises of a better tomorrow.
Of course my rage was mirrored in my Son and he would lash out from a very young age, and I began to think ‘how can I fix him?” It was quite a confronting & guilt ridden realisation that his behaviour was actually a built in response to his environment (me).
Even with this new found awareness, the rage bursts continued and I would beat myself up. It became increasingly more difficult to mother in the polarity of awareness but with unhealed wounds.
To say taking this path has been difficult is certainly an understatement. Choosing to go to the root of these behaviours is confronting, challenging and often feels like 1 step forward and 2 steps backward. There were many times when leaning into medication & clinical measures felt like the ‘easier’ approach (although I am very aware that presents its own challenges)
However, I knew the path that felt most aligned for me and my family. Through a deep re-discovery of self I was able to begin to heal myself and then begin the repair with my Son.
7 years into my Son’s life we can see the fruits of our labour and are seeing a young boy who is expressing himself, leaning into love and thriving in all of his wondrous and spirited ways.
I believe when parents can begin to heal, so too can their environment and in turn their children. I truly believe it is never too late to repair.
