I know you want to be a kind, patient, and present mother

Honestly, I am sure you already are a kind, patient, and present mother.

​

But maybe it doesn’t always feel that way.

 

Maybe the exhaustion, the sleepless nights, or the weight of constant worries have left you feeling disconnected. Maybe motherhood feels foreign—like something you’ve witnessed your whole life, yet now somehow feels unfamiliar.

Have you found yourself thinking...

 

I'm not doing this right.

I'm not the mother I thought I'd be.

Maybe I should just do what everyone else is doing.

I didn't think it would be so hard.​​

​

Well, I am here to tell you that it doesn’t have to be hard.

​

And when I say this, I’m speaking as a mom of two who has not only thought all of those things (and more), but also as someone who has dragged herself out of the massive and uncomfortable hole of isolation, sleepless nights, and intrusive thoughts to a place of freedom, confidence, and joy.

​

I know firsthand how daunting it feels—when anxiety takes over, when sleep deprivation makes everything heavier, and when it seems like no one else is going through what you’re going through.

​

But here’s the truth: restful nights, calmer days, and confidence in your motherhood are absolutely possible.

​

Through holistic sleep counseling and postpartum behavioral health coaching, I help mothers move from exhaustion and overwhelm to balance, peace, and joy.

The transition into motherhood is a big deal.


You deserve to feel supported, confident, and prepared—not just for labor, but for life after birth.

This is where I come in.


I’m here to walk beside you through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum as your:

​

​

  • Coach — guiding you through postpartum behavioral health challenges and helping you stay anchored in your growth

  • Educator — making the overwhelming (like sleep, feeding, and recovery) feel clear and manageable

  • Sleep Counselor — supporting you with gentle, holistic approaches to improve rest for both you and your little one

  • Advocate — someone in your corner when you’re unsure who to trust or where to turn

Hey there, I'm Gretchen!

A Perinatal Coach, Sleep Counselor, Developmental Psychology expert, and seasoned mom of 2 here to help you:​

​

feel prepared,
stay grounded,
…and actually enjoy your journey into motherhood.

​​

​​​​

​I believe that the postpartum period is a powerful journey of transformation. One that can have a tremendous impact on the rest of your life! 

​

That's why I not only love supporting women throughout the postpartum period, but I also really enjoy helping moms prepare for it. 

 

I'm not talking about if your registry has enough stuff in it. I'm talking about real support. The kind that makes you feel heard without having to actually say anything out loud. 


That's the kind of support I offer to you!

"We would definitely recommend Gretchen! We hired Gretchen for our third pregnancy. She is very knowledgeable presenting different evidence based facts for pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. One of our favorite highlights from Gretchen was the support she gave to me and my husband throughout. She was hands on teaching my husband effective coping moves for me and she had a great bag of tricks for coping in the hospital. But most importantly to us was the advocacy she educated us on during pregnancy and delivery. Gretchen also took amazing pictures of labor and delivery of our baby girl. She really made the entire process as "easy" as unmedicated labor can be."​
