Member Meetings and Events Committee
I'm an acupuncturist, herbalist, massage therapist, and birth doula. I practice at Meridian Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine, where I serve patients with a variety of concerns, including many patients seeking conception support, as well as those seeking perinatal care (for aches and pains, breech babies, anxiety, and more!). I have the fun of being a guest lecturer at the Louisville School of Massage Therapy where I teach prenatal massage in the professional development course. I'm a member of the Louisville Doula Project, a doula collective that seeks to provide support for people experiencing all pregnancy outcomes. I joined the Birth Care Network in 2010 when I first starting out as a massage therapist, and rejoined when I moved back to Louisville after grad school. I've been so happy to see familiar faces and meet new folks at our meetings! I've enjoyed learning from my fellow members and would love to see more educational opportunities going forward. One area I would like to learn more about is perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. I've done some learning on my own, but would love for more information on this to be abundant in our community. See y'all at the next meeting!
