Welcome!

The Art of Birth offers parents, families and communities the materials and guidance to create art as they participate in the ultimate creative process, birth.

Here you will find art therapy groups and individual sessions designed to support you as you navigate the transitions, triumphs and challenges that come with the birth of a child.

Please browse this website to find support, information and inspiration for whatever your role may be in the co-creation of new life.

To the right you will find internet resources for many issues surrounding birth.

The art of birth is messy and often contradictory. There are moments of great joy and pain. We find and test the limits of our power, and of our greatest vulnerability.

The art of birth is all about the process, because the product, be it a child, a relationship, or an identity, is continually evolving.

This art is very difficult to control, and we might feel the sense that there are much larger forces at work than ourselves. Yet we learn about the infinite possibilities, some probable, some improbable, and we respond to what unfolds before us and within us.

We make choices and set intentions based on what we are given to work with moment by moment. We do the best we can with what we have.

The art of birth is messy, and so is the birth of art. Be gentle with yourself as you participate in creation. Surround yourself with an environment that nurtures the artist in you. Gather supportive people to guide you just as you would for your labor. Call upon The Art of Birth to help you glean the deepest wisdom from this experience…

…participating in the unfolding of Creation.
