Thea

Lemaster

I (she/her) have been working with families in various capacities since 2015. My role as a Cornerstone trained doula is steeped in authenticity and understanding. As a mixed-race, queer birth worker, I center my trauma-informed approach to each family’s unique needs.

For the record: we couldn’t be happier having Thea there with us through such a life changing experience. Because of her presence, I was able to focus on everything important during labor and delivery. Our midwives were also very impressed with her knowledge, skills, and compassion. She is such an amazing person. - J, New Parent!
