1:1 maternity leave coaching
Preparing for and then returning to work can be a major transition for new moms. Your identity and priorities may have changed, and the transition back to work includes not only important logistical considerations, but emotional ones, too. It can be overwhelming! Whatever your goals, I provide 1:1 support for women who are looking to intentionally transition back to work.
What clients are saying

It was a truly wonderful class, and we are so grateful we took it. Lots of practical information but also centered on mindfulness. We had other classes lined up also to take through the hospital, but cancelled them as we decided this class was all we would need. Emily is an excellent teacher, very empowering, and really helped us feel calm and confident about our upcoming birth!

The hypnobirthing course has given me a toolkit to prepare mentally, physically, and emotionally for birth. I feel so much more confident and calm heading into my birth experience however it unfolds. Much of that is a testament to Emily and her approach to teaching. She does an incredible job of creating a positive, engaging, supportive environment throughout the course that enables her to share her knowledge and experience in such a grounded yet confident way. Would highly recommend!!

Emily is a fantastic instructor who goes above and beyond for those who take her class. The HypnoBirthing program is a great way to prepare for birth and postpartum, both for the birthing person and partner. We both feel much more confident going into the birth of our little one.
