Meet Your Coach
I’m Ariel — transformational birth and postpartum coach, mother, and founder of Empowered to Bloom.
I’m here to hold space for your becoming — through pregnancy, birth, healing, and the quiet, powerful seasons that follow.
With a blend of mindset support, emotional guidance, and deep presence, I help you reconnect with your strength, soften into your truth, and bloom in your own way.
Why coaching?
Not All Support Is the Same — And That’s a Good Thing.
Birth doulas provide hands-on, in-person support during labor — a calming presence when waves begin.But if what your need is emotional preparation, mindset support, and a space to feel truly seen —you may be looking for something deeper.That’s where a transformational birth and postpartum coach comes in.
At Empowered to Bloom, I guide you through the emotional, mental, and identity shifts of pregnancy, birth, and early motherhood — helping you release fear, reconnect with your body’s wisdom, and emerge rooted, resilient, and supported.
Why It Matters:
Science shows that when women feel emotionally prepared and supported, they experience:
-
Lower birth trauma and postpartum anxiety - shorter labor, fewer complications, reduced medical interventions
-
Greater confidence, reduced fear and more self-trust
-
Deeper satisfaction with their birth and early motherhood journey
-
Better postpartum mental wellbeing, maternal-infant bonding, breastfeeding success
​​
This isn’t about doing more. It’s about becoming more anchored in who you are.

Is birth mindset coaching or doula support covered by insurance?Coverage varies by provider. In California, Medi-Cal now covers doula services, including prenatal, birth, postpartum, and loss support. Some private insurers (like Kaiser and Blue Shield Promise) may offer partial reimbursement for out-of-network doula or coaching services. Many clients also use their FSA or HSA funds to pay for sessions, especially when recommended by a healthcare provider. I’m not currently in-network with any insurance plans, but I’m happy to provide a superbill or invoice for possible reimbursement. Tip: Call your provider to ask about doula or wellness coaching coverage, or check if your FSA/HSA can be used.

-
What happens in a session?We start with a check-in, talk through your goals or challenges, and then dive into mindset work, breathwork, or other techniques to help you feel more prepared, calm, and empowered. We’ll wrap up with takeaways and small action steps to practice.
-
Do I need to prepare for my first session?Nope! Just find a quiet, comfy spot and come as you are. If you have specific questions or concerns, jot them down, but otherwise, I’ll guide the conversation.
-
Will I get homework?Kind of! You’ll get simple, practical exercises like journaling, practicing a breathing technique, or reflecting on affirmations. Nothing overwhelming—just small, meaningful steps.
-
What if I have trauma or fears I’m not ready to talk about?That’s totally okay. You are in control of the conversation—you never have to talk about anything you’re not ready for. We can still do a lot of helpful work without going deep right away.
