Heya! My name is Sara, I'm an abortion doula and a full spectrum doula, I offer non-judgmental support to people through transitions in life. Abortion is an act of self-love and self-care, you deserve to be supported in your decision to have an abortion. Abortion support isn't one-size-fits-all, we are all different with different needs therefore my support for you will reflect this, by tailoring my support to you and your needs. Let's have a chat about how I can best support you during this time.

I am an abortion companion who helps people prepare for abortions and provides support after the experience. I work virtually, over the phone, and in person in Seattle, WA at this time.

No question is off-limits. For those that want to foster creativity and growth out of the experience of abortion, even when it’s mired in grief, I am also able to provide emotional and spiritual support from my particular lens as a biracial Black woman, former Christian, and nondual animist. I provide free services/work for donations/barter services.

Language(s): English
Location: New York City, USA + Virtual
Bio
I support folks in their pregnancy ending journeys, regardless of whether that end is chosen. My goal, rooted in my own experiences, is to ensure that folks who need abortion care or are experiencing a miscarriage don’t feel as lost and unsupported by the system as I did.
If you are seeking an abortion or are experiencing a pregnancy loss, or both, whether you have questions about the process or need someone to talk to about your experience, I can provide you with clear, factual information and offer techniques for managing your care, physical and emotional, without blame or judgement. I work with folks throughout the cycle of this experience, including before abortion, and during and after abortion or miscarriage. There is no set time-frame for your emotional response to this experience, no wrong way to grieve or celebrate.
Describe yourself in three words:
New York Mets obsessed, fan of cool birds, always thinking about the next great meal.

Bio
Hi B here! I'm an artist, abortion doula, and founder of Somatic Birthing Studio.
Somatic Birthing Studio is a creative space that provides emotional birth support to Black parents, families, and kin through poetry writing. Inspired by both my work at an abortion fund and art practice, we will use the elements of poetry to explore your emotions at your own pace.
Abortion is part of the birthing journey and this is a soft reminder that you are not alone. Here's a poem that I wrote to nurture your spirit titled, Kin (2019).
When I hear the phrase “let me tell you”
coupled with a checking on you text
you are always in reach even when you’re not in front of me
never have I ever, questioned if you would show up and show out
or give me space to be both afraid and courageous
there’s no need for explanation
just us being there for each other without unrealistic expectations
With you and yours,
B Carrie-Yvonne
