With a passion for community birth, Gabe proudly serves central North Carolina as one of its most experienced doulas
I take a holistic approach to my work and value the complexity of the layers that affect our well-being.
My practice is inclusive of the body, mind, and emotions. I approach each client with the awareness that we are shaped by our past experiences, families of origin, and our environment. Through this lens, I am able to better understand the influences and unique needs of a family throughout the childbearing year. I believe in the importance of creating physical, mental, emotional & spiritual safety for all birthing bodies. I appreciate and serve the unique individual lived experience of birthing folks.

“Whenever and however you give birth, your experience will impact your emotions, your mind, your body, and your spirit for the rest of your life”. ~Ina May Gaskin
