Client Testimonials
From the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, I’ve had to confront all sorts of deep rooted trauma. I know I have more work to do, but Veronica’s 1:1 session is one of the most beautiful, affirming and powerful experiences I have acquired in my journey to confidence, higher purpose and self-love. With one session, I’ve learned healthy ways to continue my healing journey as well as small ways to boost my physical and emotional well-being, which have further awakened my spirituality and self confidence. What she does is so powerful and so needed for women of color during these turbulent times and I am grateful for the opportunity to have connected with her.

Working with Vee was a wonderful experience. I am a first time mom and I was planning to have a birth experience that was as natural as possible. Although my experience required me to pivot multiple times, in the end, everything went smoothly. I was in the hospital over 48 hours before I finally started to push and Vee was guiding me virtually and in person throughout the whole process. She managed to make 2 trips to the hospital (which is an hour away from her home) before I finally gave birth, which I truly appreciated. Everything about it was a new experience for me and she was incredibly responsive and knowledgeable during everything. I had many people tell me that having a doula was invaluable and they were right. I waited until I was in my last trimester to finally seek out a doula but I’m so glad I did. Vee was very professional and clearly cares about women having the birth experience they desire. I highly recommend her as a doula.

Even though our work together was virtual, she never missed a beat. She made sure my partner felt included, informed, and comfortable every step of the way; something that meant so much to both of us. Her presence and guidance through labor and postpartum were calm, consistent, and deeply supportive. During labor, she was texting me positions, sending me affirmations and when I was deep in my zone, she began to text my partner to remain in the loop ALL NIGHT (we labored overnight).
Now, nearly four months later, she still checks in on me. That continued care speaks volumes about who she is and how deeply she shows up for the mommas and families she supports. If you’re looking for a doula who’s knowledgeable, thoughtful, reliable, and truly invested in helping you to execute a beautiful and sacred birthing experience, she’s the one!
