Practicing life coaching is an expansion of my work in the field of birth. For more than 10 years I have worked as a birth doula (birth assistant) and a childbirth educator. I coached women, empowered them, supported and nurtured them through the most profound transformation in a woman’s life; giving birth and becoming a mother. My work in the field of birth, as well as my back-ground in women studies and women’s group leadership, led me to focus on empowering women as a life coach. In my practice I partner with women as they go through various life changes.
Bio
I am a proud mother of 3 wonderful girls, ages 14, 12 and 4. As I was pregnant with my first daughter I became so fascinated with the pregnancy and with the birth experience, that I left a successful academic career and became a birth doula, a childbirth educator and a group leader working with new mothers. Since then I supported hundreds of mothers and couples in Israel and around the Bay area. I established the first doula program in a central hospital in Israel and founded a birth resource center there. Coming to live In the Bay area I started as a volunteer at a birth resource center, and got my certification as a hypnotherapist. I then became a co-director of Blossom Birth Resource Center. After directing for two years I signed up for coaching program at ITP. As a working mother I am continuously living he challenges and demands of women’s life –juggling career, pregnancy and births, mothering, marital relationship, house holding, social life, fitness, friendships and more. It is clear to me that part of being a woman is being in constant change as we adjust to our family needs and our children growth. These days I am practicing Life Coaching in person and in women groups, I train doulas, and I keep supporting moms during their pregnancy and birth.
