Patricia has cultivated a practice within birthkeeping and body work with an intention to care for the body, mind, and spirit of the whole person. Offerings within body work include: Shiatsu, deep tissue, jin shin do, and cupping.
Patricia’s approach to birthkeeping is to facilitate an experience that feels both empowering and nurturing. Her intention is to support the family through this new life transformation through education, emotional support, nutritional foods and hands-on bodywork. She holds this sacred space from prenatal to labor/birth to postpartum time– supporting families navigating the many shifts to come.

Artist Statement
I enjoy carrying a deep sense of curiosity in my projects by responding to the environment– the natural world and urban landscapes alike, the spectrum of human emotions, and real and imagined stories. In this way, I am guided by the creations of my ancestors and Pilipinx indigenous artists (past and present) whose movement practices include, but are not limited to, reflecting the elements and processes of nature, celebrating life transitions and gifts from the earth, and communicating with supernatural powers. I create bridges extending across the psychic oceans between motherland and current home, ancestors and descendants, and the world of spirits and the human experience.

It is a sacred honor to be a part of the birthing process. As a birthworker, I support your growing family through the many changes you experience as in preparation to usher new life into the world. I am available for prenatal, labor/ delivery, and postpartum support. The best way to know if we are a good fit is with a live conversation! If you are interested in dedicated support during this time, please contact me so that we can talk. Maraming Salamat!
Meet with Patricia for a 15-minute consultation to learn more about this offering.
Dancing is one of the greatest ways to lift the spirit. It allows us to access our innate abilities to attune to one another and support each other through our individual and collective challenges. Workshop offerings in nature, in the redwoods and by the sea, allow us to dance as our ancestors did together in celebration, in grief, in gratitude, reflecting the environment and our own imaginations.
