FAMILY SEASONS

As a doula, I assist laboring women. I am educated in the labor process, and have been through it many times. I am prepared to help you in formulating and advocating your birth wish list. I am familiar with the emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual milestones and processes of labor and postpartum, and have tools and tricks of the trade on supporting you and helping you cope/stay relaxed.

Services include:

*At least 2 prenatal visits wherein we discuss what your birth wishes are and what role you wish for me to play. We also discuss the things that you are doing to prepare for birth, other than having a doula, and go over comfort measures, childbirth classes, etc.

*Being on call for your labor, and coming as needed (whether still at home, or in the birthing place of choice)

*Staying and supporting through the duration of the labor and long enough afterwards to see that breastfeeding has been established.

*At least 1 postpartum visit to check up on Mom and see how things are going. This is also an opportunity to share feelings about the birth and give/receive feedback about the service.

I also try to make sure I type up a story of the birth, but that is more of a bonus, and is not guaranteed in the services package.

I serve families in Tremonton, Brigham City, Logan, and Ogden, Utah areas.

These sessions can be held over the phone and are for those having a tough time adjusting to life with a new baby – even if it is an experienced mom.

I have had the wonderful opportunity to be a mom 9 times and have experienced the good, bad and the ugly from just plain every-day challenges, to PPD, overwhelm and more. I have a great listening ear and have found solutions that work! Let the sunshine! Make an appointment today!

Have you noticed that you and your spouse speak different languages? Do you sometimes wonder how you fell in love anyway? Could your marriage use a boost up to higher ground?

If you answered yes to one of these questions, or you know your marriage needs some strengthening, then this is the class for you. While Clint and I are by no means perfected all the way yet, we feel we have valuable tools that we can share with others. We have faced some serious communication barriers in our married life and would like to share things that have worked for us, with you.

In this 4 week series, you will receive 4+ tools that will enhance, safeguard, and strengthen your marriage. You are going to learn techniques to optimize your communication time, so none of it is wasted on pointless arguing. We teach ways to revive and increase the romance in your marriage and ways to support each other in the good things you are doing. Some of the things you will learn in this class have literally saved marriages. We meet once a week for 2 hours. This is not an addiction recover program and anyone dealing with an addiction should seek help professionally and through the LDS Addiction Recovery Program, or other 12 step addiction recovery program. These tools will help you throughout and beyond your journey to becoming an addiction free couple. 

Meetings can take place over video conferencing as well as in the Northern Utah area, physically.
