Sophia Phillips

Having grown up in the beautiful and lush mountains of Asheville NC, Sophia brings a grounded, calm, and empathetic presence to the space that they hold. Sophia trusts the inherent strength of birthing people and feels honored to care for them, as birth and parenthood is such a transformative experience. They believe that in the same way that flowers know how to bloom, bodies know how to give birth. Sophia's philosophy includes meeting each individual where they are at- they support all informed decisions that their clients wish to choose, while providing them with evidence-based research and support. She does everything in her power to uplift, support, and advocate for those wishes to happen- Sophia has supported medicated hospital births, completely unmedicated home births, cesareans, queer and trans families, single birthing parents, poly parents, IVF pregnancies, and more. Sophia believes that every person carries a blueprint of wisdom and strength within themselves, and their job is to help create conditions which allow that wisdom to emerge. With 8+ years of experience teaching yoga and a background in somatics, she helps her clients make decisions from an embodied, grounded, and nourished place. As a yoga teacher, she enjoys guiding people towards reclaiming their relationship with movement and their bodies, as well as teaching people how movement can help create more ease and physical + mental comfort throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. In addition to her current work, Sophia is also currently in school to become a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist, as well as an Integrative Lactation & Feeding Specialist. In their free time, she enjoys attending yoga and pilates classes, spending time with friends, gardening, reading, making tea, cuddling with her cats, and connecting deeply with nature. Sophia is committed to caring for herself, her communities, and the earth that is always holding us.
