As a Yale-trained, hospital-based midwife for over a decade and a clinical instructor for resident physicians, Lucy is well-versed in modern obstetrics. Her philosophy of care is one of "balance" and she loves to integrate her medical background with a passion for pregnancy nutrition, herbal medicine, physiologic birth, and holistic mood support. She is equally at ease assisting in the operating room with a c-section as she is attending an undisturbed water birth. She firmly believes that there is a time and place for both eastern and western medicine.
Lucy lives in the Mad River Valley of Vermont with her partner and two children. One was born in a hospital and the other in a tub in her bedroom! She now offers Holistic Health Coaching from preconception through postpartum in addition to her work as a full-scope midwife.
