Dr. Elizabeth Pearce, PsyD, CD(DONA), LCCE

Mom, Psychologist, Doula, Childbirth Educator.
Dr. Elizabeth Pearce is a licensed clinical psychologist, DONA-certified birth doula, and Lamaze-Certified Childbirth Educator. She is the creator of the Birth Profile Assessment and the The Beyond the Birth Plan course, a childbirth preparation system that is the first and only one of its kind to customize labor preparation to the expectant parent’s unique personality and lifestyle factors. Dr. Pearce has supported laboring couples in a variety of birth settings, noticing the psychosocial factors that seemed to contribute to positive birth outcomes. She taught private and group childbirth courses for several years, honing her message about how psychology influences childbirth. She also presents prenatal workshops about mental preparation for labor. Dr. Pearce gets excited about helping each woman discover the beautiful design of her mind and body, and empowering her to birth in her own unique way.
