Tessa Bobir is a skilled doula with diverse methodologies. Her passion lies in supporting both young women transitioning from childhood to young adulthood, as well as women transitioning from womanhood to motherhood.

​

With over 10 years’ experience, Tessa has worked – and continues to work – as a Doula (pregnancy support person), Womb & Fertility Massage Therapist, Peri-Steam Hydrotherapist, Peer Support Worker, and Youth Worker. She provides emotional and physical education and support in the areas of menstruation, birth, motherhood, and self-care.

​

"It is my intention to provide a safe space for each client and participant to unpack their feelings, hopes, fears, and dreams, to be brought to a place of relaxation and deep rest in order to gather their thoughts. Upon leaving their session, I hope they feel more centred, focused, and rejuvenated to create the life they so desire."

As a young Aboriginal mother herself, Tessa understands the importance of forming a solid foundation of love, security, and informed knowledge for young women and growing families.

​

Tessa has created a 12-week program for young women aged 11 and older to gather, learn, and practise the importance of self-care, respecting oneself, others, and the wider community. She hopes to take this program into communities across Australia.

"My learning journey as a woman and mother, and my passion for better understanding my own cycle and maintaining a healthy way of life for my children and me, stems from the importance of the often-overlooked Indigenous way of being – holistic living. Holistic means to consider how all things are connected.

If I want to see Mother Earth cared for, then I am to care for her, thus setting an example for my children. I teach them that all is connected, that how we behave creates a ripple effect, and that we have a choice. We can only learn from and improve ourselves – and therefore our relationships and overall life – by learning from our mistakes."

​

My work as a Massage Therapist, Yoni Steam Facilitator, Doula, and Women’s Circle Facilitator cannot take place without consideration of the whole person – their mental, physical, and emotional health: mind, body, and spirit.

I believe each client or participant I encounter is the expert of their own life.

I look forward to supporting you – whether it be through physical touch, being a safe sounding board for you to remember your own power, or both!
