Hi, I'm Vanessa
DREAMING MY LIFE INTO BEING
Osteopath (BSc) | Pediatric Osteopath (DPO)
Holistic Practitioner | Shamanic Doula
During the last weeks of my pregnancy, I met Vanessa while searching for an osteopath. After my first appointment, I was blown away by all the tools, knowledge, and resources she brought into the session. I knew right away that I wanted to learn all of it! It was clear to me that I wanted to join the Holistic Doula & Birthkeeper training.
Vanessa pours all her passion, love, and expertise into this training, and she does it in such a loving, compassionate, and powerful way. The group interactions feel like connecting with old friends or sisters who are finally reunited. From the very first moment, it's familiar, authentic, loving, honest, and vulnerable.
The training content is beautifully coordinated, and Vanessa always makes room for what we need at the moment. The topics are super interesting and presented so well through videos, scripts, live calls, and audio. In the live calls, other incredible women also share their knowledge. There are drum journeys, integration journeys, and so much healing and growth.
I recommend this training to every woman, no matter where she is in her life. This training is for all women who want to make it their calling to support other women. At the same time, there is so much space for your own personal healing and growth.
Thank you, dear Vanessa, for creating Rising Mother and this amazing training!

With Vanessa, I always feel immediately comfortable and supported. She was an incredible support during my pregnancy with osteopathy, shamanic journeying, and helpful tips and tricks. I could always ask her anything and felt very secure having her by my side. A huge heartfelt recommendation!

You helped us through the tough times of conception with your incredibly empathetic, open, and cheerful nature. You broke down barriers, brought us back to our center, and improved so much. You supported me through my pregnancy, eased my discomforts, calmed my fears, and prepared me for birth.
Now, you're also helping our little miracle. You've helped both of us postpartum, given us valuable tips for dealing with colic, restlessness, and more, and helped us overcome our breastfeeding difficulties. Your way with both the little ones and the adults is amazing. We immediately feel well cared for and understood. You listen, feel, and think with genuine interest. I’m excited to see what else we’ll resolve together and what more I’ll learn from you about our miracle!

Vanessa made our big wish come true by inviting our baby into life with a shamanic welcoming ceremony right before his birth. We wanted our little one to feel how excited we were and know that we would welcome him with open, loving arms. It was magical!
Vanessa lined up different rituals and created a sacred space filled with love and trust that extended far beyond the ceremony. When our baby still hadn’t arrived ten days past the due date, she repeated the invitation. Shortly after, we were holding our baby in our arms.
Her support during the postpartum period and beyond has been such a huge gift for us each time. Thank you!

This safe space is exactly what I longed for during my pregnancy. It feels like the most beautiful time-out I can gift myself and my baby: the cacao, the sharing, the magical atmosphere, Vanessa’s authentic and wonderful presence, and of course, the deep connection with my baby. I am beyond grateful for this opportunity and for the chance to step more and more into my power.
