Cranialsacral Therapist | Lactation Specialist

Background

As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and Myofunctional Therapist, I support families and infants in achieving their feeding goals—whether breastfeeding, bottle feeding, or a combination of both. My approach is compassionate, evidence-informed, and judgment-free, recognizing that every family’s journey is unique. By integrating feeding support with oral function and airway-focused care, I help babies feed more comfortably and parents feel confident in the path that works best for them.
