Doula Training

It is our job as a doula to be able to create processes and strategies for our clients to be able to identify what they value most in their birthing experience to be able to achieve an ideal outcome.

Throughout this course, we will be going through the way people think, why they think that way, and how we can help them change their thinking (if appropriate) or transmute experiences to play to their power. We will be learning incredible processes and tools to help your clients cope, transform, and transmute pain, trauma and a plethora of other things they may come up against in their birthing journeys.

We suggest if you are planning on offering doula services, before signing up you are already acquainted with at minimum: the hospital system, how it works and physiological birth before you begin offering doula services. This is an addition to people who already understand the politics of birth.
