Consultations for Bereaved Parents

  • Bereavement support for perinatal loss

  • 1:1 consults via Zoom or
    in-person for local families

  • Options counseling for lactation after infant loss and breast/chest care support

  • As a Lactation Consultant and a Holding Space Consultant who specializes in bereavement support around the perinatal period, I offer 1:1 sessions to bereaved parents. You may come to share your grief story with a listening ear who understands, or receive guidance on your options surrounding lactation when there is no longer a baby to feed.

    I am here to listen.

    I am trained as a holding space consultant and also specialize in helping lactating families navigate decisions surrounding the death of an infant.

    I offer support in navigating the experience of lactating following a late miscarriage or the death of an infant, navigating an expectant loss, processing a pregnancy termination, options for milk donation or lactation cessation, and all things related to bereavement care.

    Please contact me to schedule a session.

  • $80 for a 50-min session.
    Please reach out to discuss a different rate.

Workshops for Medical Professionals

  • Training in Grief Support and Lactation Care after Perinatal Loss

  • Available to hospital staff, lactation professionals, bereavement doulas, social workers

  • For individuals who work with bereaved families, I am happy to provide you with mentorship.

    If you are a healthcare provider who feels your staff could use additional training in supporting families with lactation after perinatal loss, and with tools to support families with compassion, I am happy to work with you and your team.

    Workshops typically are offered as two sessions, 2.5 hours each, but can be adapted to fit your organization’s needs.

    The first session will cover how to support grieving families. The second session will go into detail about providing options for milk and lactation and how to provide breast/chest care for lactating parents.

  • Contact me to discuss workshop cost. I typically provide workshops via Zoom for your staff and the rate depends on the number of participants.

Workshop Inquiry

  • You allowed me to share my story and truly held space for me at the most difficult time of my life. I will be forever grateful and will never forget that.

    -Eve’s Mom

  • Speaking with you settled my heart so much...you don’t even know how your story might’ve saved me so much.

    -Kari Rai’s Mommy

  • This group has been a space for me to listen, share, and cry with other loss parents. Connecting with those who can truly understand the heartbreak of baby loss has helped me to not feel as isolated in my grief.

    -Amelia’s Mom

  • ...donating to the milk bank was what kept me out of a deep well of depression. It made it physically necessary to get out of bed to pump, it gave me a sacred time to reflect in the quiet mornings, it gave me purpose and a spiritual connection to those with whom I shared Arlo's milk.

    -Arlo’s Mom

  • The group helped me gain a sense of self back by discussing with others the topics that can feel so isolating. It is a very warm and welcoming group that spreads vibes of compassion and hope.
