Hi friend, I’m Elise!

My life is enriched by being a devoted mother to two sparkling little girls and sharing this beautiful journey with my beloved partner.

Drawing from my scientific background and holding a PhD in isotope geochemistry, I've delved into the marvels of the natural world. Simultaneously, I derive immense satisfaction from accompanying individuals during pivotal moments of transformation. Witnessing the remarkable power of birth fills me with joy. It extends beyond the act of bringing a baby into this world; it marks a crucial moment of personal metamorphosis. I am deeply dedicated to guiding and supporting you through this period of change, embracing both the joys and challenges as you transition into a new way of life.

Recognizing the invaluable assistance that doulas provide, my commitment is unwavering in delivering skilled, compassionate, and non-judgmental care to all birthing individuals. Additionally, I serve as an advocate and peer support specialist for perinatal mental health, with a particular emphasis on abortion support, actively working toward my PMH-C certification.

In moments of respite from caregiving, you will likely find me indulging in the pleasures of singing, playing the cello, or immersing myself in the beauty of the outdoors. My diverse journey revolves around nurturing and supporting others, whether it be through birth, abortion, or perinatal mental health, all while cherishing the wonders of life in its multifaceted dimensions.
