About Me

Sophia is an experienced New York City based queer Birth & Postpartum Doula, Yoga Teacher, Herbalist, and Somatic Practitioner providing thorough, evidence-based, compassionate trauma-informed care to new families. Having grown up in the beautiful and lush mountains of Asheville NC, they bring a grounded, calm, and empathetic presence + a dash of joyful and playful energy to the space that they hold. In addition to her current offerings, Sophia is also currently training to become a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist and an Integrative Lactation & Feeding Specialist.

Sophia believes that every birthing person and new parent has a blueprint of intuitive inner wisdom, and their job is to create conditions which allow that inner wisdom to emerge. Sophia supports a wide range of different births, including unmedicated home births, medicated and unmedicated hospital births, and more. She strongly believes that there is no right or wrong way to give birth- what matters most to her is that her clients are informed with evidence-based research and given the tools to decide what works best for themselves. When receiving care from Sophia, expect to feel connected to your intuition, deeply cared for, nourished, and fiercely advocated for.

In their free time, Sophia enjoys reading, making tea, cuddling with her cats, and connecting deeply with nature.

“Sophia helped me feel very at ease and powerful in my own body despite our challenging pregnancy and birth.”

- C.M. (doula client)
