Private Counseling
Pregnancy can be an emotional, stressful time for the expectant mother and those close to her. In the last 15 years, scientists have gathered valuable information concerning the effects of the womb environment on the baby. Conclusive evidence shows that what a mother breaths, ingests and digests, plus her daily stress level, has great impact upon the healthy development of her unborn baby.
With over 40 years experience with childbirth education, nursing, midwifery, and counseling, Sandra provides a safe, confidential place for women, their partners, and their parents to work through emotional blocks and find more peace and emotional balance.
All sessions are held in the privacy of Sandra's Elk Grove home. Call her to book a private session.
