Birthing Through Traumas 

Gentle Love Doula/Cynthia Garcia

I specialize in supporting through traumas! I offer resources, information or even just a listening ear when needed to help you through your traumas. Utilizing my personal experiences with healing through my own traumas and my knowledge in birth-work, I make it my mission to help YOU reclaim your power and be confident in YOU!

Childhood Traumas: Birthing as a childhood abuse survivor can bring back many triggers. My role as your doula is to help guide you through those feelings comfortably and helping you address and work through them, so they don't affect your birth or postpartum. As a survivor myself, I can relate to your fears and be a safe place for you. Anything discussed between you and I, is confidential! 

 

VBAC and Birth Traumas: C-sections, inductions, and traumatic births can cause traumas of their own, especially if it was unplanned. My goal is to help you through these fears and give you as much information to make informed decisions for yourself as well as be confident in those decisions. I will also advocate for you and make sure you are heard and respected. 

 

As someone who has experienced and navigated through my own personal traumas, I am dedicated to guide others on finding their voice after feeling like it's been taken away. I put all my heart into my work, and I am an advocate for safe and untouched births, finding and speaking the truth, and full informed consent.
