I needed someone to help me with my late term breech baby… everyone else seemed to think I was crazy, but Sarah helped me SO much! She relieved stress, gave me lessons in hormones and what was happening in my body as my pregnancy came closer to full term, and provided a full print out of nutritional needs. She was phenomenal and I absolutely believe she is a huge reason why my baby turned, why my labor and delivery was brief, uneventful, and my healing was quick!

I found Sarah at the beginning of my pregnancy, We were in the middle of the Covid Pandemic and I had limited resources available to me as a first time mom. I had to attend my appointments alone and felt I wasn’t getting the information I wanted, or really much information at all.
My appointments with Sarah were so informative, she was knowledgeable and kind, and an amazing teacher. My husband was able to come to our appointments, engage, ask questions, and support me. We left each appointment with food suggestions and recipes based on my needs for that stage of pregnancy.
I felt so secure

I am so thankful I found Sarah! I first met her when I was almost 37 weeks pregnant with a breech baby. From the moment I walked into her office, I immediately felt peace, a sense of reassurance, and that she could truly help me. Sarah has such a gift and her knowledge and passion of pregnancy and birth is very evident. After two acupuncture sessions with moxa I found out my baby was now head down so i continued with acupuncture sessions to help prepare my body for labor and again Sarah’s expertise in this area was amazing. Thanks to Sarah I was able to deliver my 4th baby at home like my other

Sara's skills and knowledge go beyond the doula and reproductive support. I saw her to help kick a cold virus and clear a headache I had for 2 days. Her discernment for act-points were right on and my headache was 80% better by the end of the session. By the next day, I had very little pain, 95% better! Thank you!

Sarah was absolutely amazing. I was recommended to Sarah by my midwives for some additional late term pregnancy nutrition and accupuncture care and I fell in love with her when she began to explain how and why the nutrition she was recommending would help my body and my baby. She graciously came on as my doula and I couldn't have asked for a better person to be there for me and my husband to welcome our little one into the world. Throughout a long and arduous labor, she was there for us and remained steadfastly and absolutely on point with all of her guidance. Never once did she waiver. I would

Sarah is amazing! I reached out to her when I was pregnant with my third baby. I felt like my hormones had been extremely out of balance after my second pregnancy and wanted to get help with that for my third. Due to the pandemic, I wound up switching to a home birth a little over halfway through my pregnancy and reached out to Sarah again after my midwife recommended it. I'm extremely thankful that I did. Sarah is a wealth of knowledge and I loved how she explained every step of pregnancy and labor. I also loved all of her knowledge when it came to diet and birth. I have never had anyone sit down

I’ve only seen Sarah for two visits and one virtual check-up within a few weeks timeframe. In that short time, she has completely changed my life. I was suffering terribly with my health and no matter what I did, or how much I begged doctors to listen to me, I gradually became worse and went into a very dark place mentally, physically, and emotionally. I was so sick I honestly thought that I was dying. Since seeing Sarah, my whole world has changed. I went from pain and suffering to healing and light. If this is how much has changed in only a matter of a few weeks of seeing her, I can’t wait
