Profile Categories: Birth Doula and Postpartum Doula
I’m Faith Canter, health coach, nutritional and trauma informed therapist, author and doula. I’ve been assisting people with various fatigue, auto immune and hormonal concerns for almost 15 years now. After recovering from a whole host of pretty serious health conditions myself.
I have a deep desire to support women through the stages of pregnancy and beyond and this is such a magical time in a persons life which is why I recently trained to become a birth and postpartum doula. I feel no one should feel alone, unheard and unsupported in life, but especially during such a special time of life like this.
I run various community events here where I live, in rural central Portugal because of this also. When we come together as community, we as a collective are stronger, but also as an individual we are stronger too.
I live off grid on a small working farm (quinta in Portuguese) with my partner and our sheep, geese, ducks, chickens, dogs and cats and have lived this way for over 8 years now (having moved from the UK, where I grew up).
I moved here to have a more natural, nourishing and free life. More like we as human beings are ‘designed’ to live. I felt this calling deeply too.
