A doctor of physical therapy for moms and moms to be since 2008!
Aka, I specialize in pelvic health from pregnancy through postpartum
As a pelvic floor PT, yoga teacher and women's health coach, I believe optimal pelvic care must integrate the physical, mental, emotional and energetics of the body.
In my private practice I support hundreds of mamas through their pregnancy and postpartum healing journeys. They often wonder why pelvic care isn't common knowledge, why their doctor didn't recommend it during pregnancy and why the body changes and even traumas of birth aren't openly discussed or properly addressed.
The common thread... there's an unfortunate lack of good prenatal and postpartum pelvic care and education!
And I'm here to UNLOCK YOUR ABILITY TO BIRTH!
Through helping moms prepare their body and mind for birth and recover their strength and vitality postpartum, I've learned where the gap of pelvic health education and training is during pregnancy and postpartum... and I'm here to fill you in!
And if you’re like most moms BEFORE they start working with me, then you may feel worried, frustrated and overwhelmed... wondering if YOU have what it takes to birth differently from the stories you’ve heard or even your own previous experience, right?
But the truth is, the real reason you’re struggling with fear and worry surrounding birth is you aren’t physically and mentally prepared.
COMPETENCE BUILDS CONFIDENCE!
And without a clear roadmap of tangible, specific strategies to do right now to naturally reduce labor pains, shorten labor times, lower your risk of tearing and push easier during active labor so that you aren’t overly exhausted once the baby is born...
you remain stuck in the cycle of worry, frustration and self doubt. Which further leads to tension in your physical body... which we all know isn't ideal for birthing, right?!
If you don’t get “in the know” about your birthing body and develop stronger and more efficient motor pathways from brain to your pelvis right now, during pregnancy,
then you run the risk of having a chaotic and exhausting birth.
Luckily, that doesn't have to be your story!
YOU CAN BIRTH WITH EASE!
Fear itself causes birthing obstacles: increased muscle tension, higher sensitivity to pain, leading to more need for unnecessary medical intervention, and more risk of tearing!
Birth is one of those moments that you'll remember forever and celebrate each year with your child's birthday. How would it feel to know you took the simple steps to make it an empowering experience?
You have what it takes within you for a
fully present, calm, comfortable birth...
You just have to learn what it takes to tap into it!
And just as I've helped many moms trust themselves and birth easier,
NOW I want to help you!

THE OVERWHELMED, ANXIOUS PREGNANT MOM TO THE CALM, CONFIDENT BIRTHER THAT'S WITHIN YOU!
"And I did it! All natural water birth! No meds"
Just want to say thank you for the virtual class on Tuesday...My water broke at 3:15 that day lol and I went into labor that night. He was born Wednesday morning! I remembered your low voice grunting noises while pushing and breathing techniques! Thank you again so much for the class! Glad everything was fresh in my mind!!
"I had so many resources to help me feel empowered."
Between practicing proper breath work, learning how to be aware of my pelvic floor, and learning appropriate movements/exercises, I had so many resources to help myself and feel empowered.
Easing fear, emphasizing the incredible, natural processes of birth, and providing specific prep exercises (that I mastered from the program) impacted me in extremely beneficial ways that I won’t get from any other birth provider.
This class is a must for new moms and moms who want a better experience for a new birth.

Inhale, exhale what a relief!
I loved the idea of requiring our neural experience of pressure/pain by practicing the experience of pressure through various means - perineal massage, the towel, the ball, and pooping!
Having the chance to breathe and focus on breath through pregnancy during pooping I really think helped me so much in my second birth! Because it was a daily chance to tune in and release and (sometimes) tolerate pressure/ discomfort and breathe through it.

Have a pressing question you need answered before enrolling in Below the Bump?
Below is a list of the most common questions I've been asked. If for some odd reason you don't see your question, reach out to support@belowthebump.com. Cool?
Below the Bump was designed with the worried mom, first time mom or mom with past birthing trauma in mind. What sets BTB apart from other birth prep programs can be broken out into 3 things:
1. You'll KNOW Your Pelvic Floor - most people think kegels is the only thing the pelvic floor does or needs to do in pregnancy, but that is completely BACKWARDS. So I make sure my students clearly understand when to kegel and when to not so they can birth easier without the worry of if they're pushing correctly.
2. Mindbody connection - Your physical body doesn't work without your brain. This is true for other bodily functions such as birthing! So it's imperative to understand how the mind and body work together so you can get past the roadblocks without the typical fears that prolongs labor.
3. ACTUAL Skills - This is more than a simple learn the stages of labor and when to call your doctor...this program trains you HOW to birth and HOW to trust yourself through the process.
No worries, 9 out of 10 moms that follow my BTB program are busy moms that weren't sure themselves about making time for birth prep, but the consensus is... They're so glad they did! In BTB, I break down the most critical elements of birth prep that make a huge impact for the least amount of time and put it together for you in a simple to follow daily and weekly schedule.
You don't need hours per day to prepare for birth, you just need to know what to do and when to do it so you're not wasting your time trying to figure out a schedule or randomly following YouTube tutorials throughout your pregnancy.
I love when moms ask me this because whether or not you choose to have medication, the progression of your birth depends on your body's ability to surrender to the birthing process. Also, pain medication doesn't work for everyone and for parts of your labor you'll be medication free, so you're going to want to have natural pain relief strategies up your sleeve to help you feel more calm and comfortable.
Don't be silly, of course you are! 90% of moms think this exact same thing, until they start to follow the step by step roadmap in Below the Bump program and begin to trust their body's innate ability to birth and see what's possible. This is the number one comment I hear from my students after completing the program...that they not only saw their infinite potential to birth naturally, but they believed it.

The private (members-only) FB group is your community. This is your chance to ask questions and get feedback, support and insight for your birth prep questions. It’s a virtual space filled with moms like you with a similar goal of easing worries for a more comfortable birth experience.
Yes and yes! Hospital based classes cover hospital protocol, but nothing about how to prepare your body physically and mentally during birth or how to push with more comfort and ease. Unfortunately, your hospital class won’t mention pelvic floor health during pregnancy or any postpartum recovery...and that’s just the tip of the iceberg as I fill in the gaps in BTB.
To best support the most recent BTB members that join the program, I wait a minimum of 3 months before opening this program again.
Did I mention, you get lifelong access to the program (as long as it’s on the web) including all the updates I add! So...if you’re early in your pregnancy or in the trying to conceive stage, once you’re in, you’re in mama!
Heck yes! And that’s exactly why I created this program...so you can go with the flow without worry or fears holding you back. Your body was made for birthing and with a little extra guidance, you’ll be smoothly flowing through birth like fish in the ocean’s current.
