Hi, I'm Gretchen!

Are you looking to take control of your motherhood journey by learning how to navigate the unknown, the unexpected, and the intensity of motherhood? I believe that your experience should be unique, meaningful, and enjoyable for you!  

Through mindful practices, self-discovery, and evidence-based care and education I guide moms just like you through the real, raw, and messy parts of motherhood—allowing them to release the need for perfection, embrace the ebb and flow of motherhood, and be fully present for the moments that matter.

Hi Mama! 

I’m Gretchen—founder of Connected Mothering, certified perinatal behavioral health coach, sleep counselor, perinatal coach & doula. I am a passionate advocate for mothers navigating the beautiful, messy, and powerful journey into motherhood.

With a background in mental health and developmental psychology, I offer holistic, evidence-based support for women during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My mission is to help mothers feel seen, supported, and empowered—emotionally, mentally, and physically—every step of the way.

I specialize in working with natural mothers and military spouses, two communities close to my heart. Whether you're preparing for your first baby or building resilience through multiple transitions, I provide compassionate coaching that honors your values, strengthens your confidence, and supports your mental wellness.

You're not just growing your family—you're nurturing little souls and becoming a Connected Mother.

And you don't have to do it alone!
