About me
Hi, I’m Tam – a Endorsed Midwife, Reconnected Birthing Practitioner, mother, and space-holder for stories that matter.
I’ve been in the birth space for over 7 years, drawn to the deep, relational work that happens when women are seen and supported through all seasons of birth and becoming. My passion lies in continuity of care and in the tender, often overlooked space that comes after birth; the integration, the processing, the healing.
I offer postnatal visits and birth debrief sessions that are grounded in trauma-informed care and shaped by my Reconnected Birthing mentorship. My approach is also underpinned by respecting the intersections of trauma, compassion, and the nervous system.
My birth debrief sessions a space for you to be witnessed: whether your birth was empowering, overwhelming, disappointing, or still unresolved. Through story, curiosity, and connection, we explore how your experience lives in your body, your beliefs, and your sense of self.
This work is my heart work. I’m here to walk gently with you, not as an expert, but as a woman who knows that healing happens in relationship - with ourselves and with those who truly listen.
