Holistic Childbirth (Kate Dimpfl)

                Holistic Childbirth offers doula services, childbirth education classes, and perinatal counseling to help parents with the transition into parenthood. The goal is to holistically support and empower women and families during every stage of this unique period. To do this, classes are designed to address the physical, emotional and logistical aspects of birth and parenting. 

                Rather than teach one type of childbirth education, Holistic Childbirth classes are evidence-based, non-judgmental and teach the range of options that are available to parents, helping them discover what their beliefs and preferences are as they sort through the myriad of choices they face.   Counseling examines the emotional components of the transition into parenthood, allowing mothers to process their own sexual and relationship histories, helping them feel confident and capable to not only birth their babies, but make the best choices for themselves, and take ownership and pride in their new role as mothers. 

                As a doula Kate often combines education and counseling, in addition to attending births.  Kate says, "It is an honor to work with families during this special transition."  For more information go to: www.holisticchildbirth.org.
