Lis has completed Postpartum Doula trainings through DONA and ProDoula International, as well as ProDoula Placenta Specialist training.  She holds a BS in Psychology and is an avid Yoga Teacher and practitioner, trained through Neighborhood Yoga in 2008. The practice of yoga shapes the way Lis engages with life each day; it challenges her to live deeply, authentically, reckoning expectations with reality.  It is a practice of trust and a guide to uncovering both our fears and our “best selves”.  Lis is a mama to 3 school age children and is fully on the journey of learning and growing with them.  She is up to date on Blood Borne Pathogen and CPR certifications.

Lis believes in reaching out for what we need, that a little gratitude goes a long way, and that we are all infinitely capable & deserving of support.
