Individualized Hypnobirthing
What is Hypnobirthing?
By harnessing the power of Hypnosis, Hypnobirthing helps to facilitate your desired birth experience. Hypnosis is a natural state that can support your birth goals, strengthen birthing techniques, and address fears and obstacles on a subconscious level. Whether you are looking for pain management for a natural birth or wanting to foster a calm and confident medicated birth, this program is for every person preparing for childbirth.
Personalized Hypnobirthing Program in Denver, CO
Whether you are planning a natural birth, medicated birth, c-section, or not sure yet, Hypnobirthing is for all of the above. I want to help facilitate the most calm, confident, empowered birth possible! I offer both in-person and telehealth sessions.
My program is unique because it is individualized! It is a personalized program based on your needs; including coaching, hypnotherapy, tools, recordings, and the inclusion of your birth partner.
I am often asked, “When is the best time to start?” I love to have at least eight sessions with my birthing clients. This leaves plenty of time to work through goals, fears, education, and tools through coaching; as well as discovery, reinforcement, and neural pathway work under hypnosis. With that being said, everyone has different needs! The best time for you to start working with me is when you feel called. I start seeing clients anywhere from the first trimester to the beginning of the third.

What it’s like working with me.
“Working with Dana during my pregnancy helped me through my birth and postpartum experience more than I can even describe. I wanted my birth to be a beautiful empowering experience, but I was terrified of it, so I didn’t think that was possible. Her coaching and hypnosis completely shifted my mindset. I felt a calm, grounded confidence build in the weeks leading up to the birth. She helped me tap into a warrior part of myself who I truly felt was by my side during birth, even as my birth went very differently than I had planned. It ended up being the most peaceful experience, largely due to the tools Dana gave me. And now as a new mom, I utilize that warrior self every day, and I truly feel like I’m a better, happier mother because of it. Dana is intuitive, compassionate, and downright brilliant. She was born to do this work. I recommend her to all of my pregnant friends because I can’t imagine going through this experience without her.”

My Birth Story
Before birthing my son, my knowns around birth had been built from a story I heard my entire life… my own birth. My mother had an extremely rare complication when pregnant with my twin sister and I. We were 8 weeks premature and my mother was in a medically induced coma for two weeks. The idea that “we all almost didn’t make it” was reinforced so many times growing up that I was terrified to ever give birth before I even understood the concept.
As a pregnant person, others want to tell you their most horrifying “giving birth in the car” or “close call” stories. It’s EXTREMELY unhelpful and we are already carrying enough fears and stories about birth… thanks, but we don’t need more.
As soon as I found out I was pregnant, I knew I needed help rewriting my knowns about birth and help to make room for MY OWN birth story. My goal above all else was to feel calm, empowered and release what was never mine to hold. Hypnobirthing gave me just that!
I had a beautiful medicated birth at St. Luke in Denver on February 24th, 2022. Were there emotional ups and downs? You bet! Was I scared at times? Absolutely! But above all else, Hypnobirthing allowed me to feel calm through the storms of emotions, empowered me to realize that I could experience this birth any way I chose, and that no matter how this boy was brought into this world (medicated, natural, c-section), it would be birth!
