How Working With a Local Lactation Consultant Can Transform Your Breastfeeding Journey
When you’re exhausted, emotional, and unsure what’s going on with feeding, finding the right kind of support matters more than anything. Most families who reach out to me aren’t looking for generic advice—they want someone who can sit with them, watch their baby feed, and truly understand what’s happening beneath the surface.
And that’s where working with a local, hands-on lactation consultant makes all the difference.
Breastfeeding challenges rarely come from one single thing. They often involve a mix of oral tension, body asymmetry, latch mechanics, maternal comfort, milk transfer, or the way baby’s nervous system responds to feeding. As an IBCLC who also specializes in infant bodywork, I’m always assessing the whole picture—not just the latch.
Together, we look at things like:
How baby’s jaw, tongue, and neck are moving
Whether body tension is making feeding harder than it needs to be
Your comfort, positioning, and milk flow
How baby’s overall function affects transfer and behavior
So many parents tell me, “I wish someone had explained this sooner.” Feeding shouldn’t feel like detective work—you deserve support that takes the guesswork out of the process.
If you’re searching for an IBCLC in your area, what you truly want is someone who understands the deeper layers of feeding, who listens, and who can gently guide you toward a more peaceful experience with your baby.
Insurance Coverage for Lactation Visits
I am currently in-network with several insurance plans for lactation services, which can make professional support more accessible for families. You get 6 lactation visits PER YEAR. The following plans are accepted:
Aetna (in-office only, not telehealth)
Sutter Health
UnitedHealthcare / UHC (in-office only, not telehealth)
Cigna
First Health
Imagine Health
Meritain (in-office only, not telehealth)

If you don’t see your plan listed, you may still have out-of-network benefits. I can provide a superbill for potential reimbursement.
