Life transitions bring so much change with them.

And, change can be hard.

The late night google searches don’t always help.

Sometimes your friends and family just don’t have the right words. But you do not have to navigate this time alone.

I’m committed to making a positive impact for families in my community by providing queer and trans-centered, hands on, sensible and straightforward care during life’s natural transitions. My wish is to bring joy, logistical support, and a loving presence to your unique experience.

I believe in you. I trust you. I have your back.

Kate is a queer, nonbinary full spectrum doula, Certified Lactation Counselor, and Placenta Encapsulation Specialist based in Southeast Michigan.

Kate has supported more than one hundred families since 2015

    I work with people experiencing pregnancy, preparing for birth, and navigating postpartum. I support all outcomes and all choices (including stillbirth and abortion).

I will listen to you and I will try to really get to know you.
