About the Provider

 

I am a healthcare and maternal support professional with a diverse background in administration, counseling, and family care. I hold a BS in Health Services Administration and am currently pursuing a Master of Marriage and Family Therapy at Capella University. My academic journey and professional training have equipped me with a strong foundation in both healthcare systems and emotional wellness, allowing me to serve families holistically.

In addition to my academic path, I am a Certified Medical Billing Consultant, Certified Birth Doula, Certified Postpartum Doula, and Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC). This combination of clinical, administrative, and family-centered skills enables me to bridge the gap between healthcare systems and the real, everyday needs of families during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period.

About My Business – Listen & Co

Listen & Co was founded with the mission of supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum journey with compassion, knowledge, and personalized care. We believe that every family deserves access to professional doula support, maternal health resources, and guidance that empowers them to make informed choices.

At Listen & Co, we provide:

  • Doula Services – Birth and postpartum support tailored to each family’s needs.

  • Breastfeeding Support – Guidance and counseling from a Certified Lactation Counselor to help parents confidently nourish their babies.

  • Training & Certification Programs – Comprehensive doula training designed to prepare new doulas for both private practice and Medicaid/insurance-based care, ensuring professional standards and accessibility.

  • Medical Billing Consulting – Specialized consulting to help doulas and maternal health providers navigate insurance reimbursement and streamline their business operations.

Our approach is client-centered, inclusive, and community-focused. We not only care for families during pivotal moments but also equip new doulas with the tools, knowledge, and systems they need to succeed in this growing field.
