Welcome to Doulas of Empowerment! We’re so glad you’re here.

I’m Karissa Pritchett, founder of D.O.E., certified labor and postpartum doula, VBAC specialist, and educator. After welcoming my daughter in 2017, I experienced the full spectrum of birth and early parenthood. That transformative experience sparked my passion to ensure no birthing person or family ever feels lost, unheard, or unsupported.

Everything we do at D.O.E. is rooted in our core commitment: InPower to Empower.

We meet you where you are; without judgment or expectation; to educate, uplift, and support you. Our goal isn't just to guide you through birth and postpartum; it's to help you tap into your own inner strength. That internal power is what leads to confident, inpowered choices and beautiful, empowered beginnings for your whole family.

How We Walk Beside You:

• Personalized Connection: Honoring who you are beyond your roles as a parent or partner, ensuring your physical, emotional, and mental well-being come first.

• Continuous Labor & Postpartum Care: From hands-on comfort techniques and evidence-based education to quiet, reassuring advocacy, we are active partners in your birthing room and home.

• Inclusive & Safe Space: Providing unbiased care for every background, identity, and family structure.

You already hold the power within yourself—we are simply here to help you unlock it so you can step into this sacred season with absolute confidence.
