Birth Doula in Ashland, Oregon
And the surrounding Rogue Valley
Hi, I’m Mia, My mission in life is to bring ancient wisdom into the modern world.
I support women to find balance through daily rhythms and rituals. In my years of working with women, I recognize the power in a lightbulb moment when a woman is re-educated into a wisdom she has carried for generations. Birth is one of the catalyzing experiences that brings women the opportunity to reform patterns for herself, her family, her community, and generations to come.
I gently support and guide women to these realizations so they may find the power in their own rhythms. As a birth doula, I walk alongside women and families to direct them toward the education, choices, and experiences that will allow them to feel empowered and loved during this transition.
I hold the importance of this rite of passage and feel it is important to find reverence in this transition. Ceremony is a part of my offerings as a doula and can look many ways.
The most important piece is that a woman and a family is honored as they bring new life into this world. I am here to honor, nurture, educate, empower, and stand in reverence of this miracle.
I work with clients who …
Are ready to discover, create, and stand up for their wholistic health and well-being. Working with me looks like comprehensive prenatal appointments including discussions for the wide array of tests, interventions, and routines that will be offered to you as a pregnant person. If you don’t know how to navigate these systems yet, but are driven to learn, I can’t wait to work with you to get you there.
Our appointments will also include prenatal yoga, an essential practice for preparing the mind and body for a healthy pregnancy, labor, and the transition to motherhood. No prior experience with yoga is necessary.
My clients want support on the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual realms to enhance this transition of life, and our time together will allow for full support and encouragement.
I work with people who are positive and loving and willing to make changes last-minute knowing they still have the ultimate control of their peace to create the experience the want and deserve.

I will also provide basic birth photos if desired.
