About Meredith

I became a parent in the spring of 2020; a time of peak isolation early in the pandemic, when postpartum care as we knew it was virtually non-existent. My second child was born four years later under very different circumstances, giving me first-hand insight to how different every postpartum can be.

I’m endlessly curious about the life transitions that lead us to (re)discovering our true selves, and our own unique abilities that lie in our vulnerabilities. Birthing a child and becoming a parent are one of the most profound of these transitions. I especially enjoy supporting first-time parents during this transient time between who they once were and who they will become.

Like many, my journey to parenthood brought unexpected challenges. After recurrent miscarriages, gestational diabetes and two high-risk pregnancies that proved to be healthy, powerful births, I thought the hardest parts of becoming a parent were behind me. After birth, I wasn’t prepared for the sense of loss that I felt from no longer having frequent contact with my care team. I had a loving network of family and friends, but I didn’t always know what it was that I needed, much less how to articulate it through the brain fog of sleep deprivation, physical recovery and the roller coaster ride of experiencing PMADs (perinatal mood and anxiety disorders).
