Marisa L. Schwarz, DNP, CNM

Marisa (she/her) feels her work and identity as a midwife is rooted in her commitment to forming partnerships with people, and guiding them to make informed decisions that work best within their own cultural and personal contexts. Her goal is to make people feel seen and heard, and equipped to nourish themselves with consistent support. She believes that when more people are empowered with evidence-based information about their bodies, empowered by reproductive sovereignty, and dignified healthcare, it will reverberate to all corners of our society. She considers it an honor to provide care to people often during times of significant transition and transformation. Pregnancy/birth care, LGBTQIA+ health, blending conventional and alternative medicine.
