About HypnoBirthing®
The Mongan Method
HypnoBirthing® is a program that taps into the amazing natural power of women’s bodies, enabling calm, confident, and gentle births. It is the original Natural Childbirth Preparation Program using Hypnosis that’s now in its third decade, is taught in 46 countries, and has been adopted by many hospitals as their birth education program. It offers valuable advantages for all parents and is especially beneficial for those who wish to minimize or avoid the use of medication.
Along with your birth partners, we will learn deep relaxation, special breathing, visualization techniques, and affirmations to eliminate fear and tension for a more comfortable, instinctive birth. The course will also prepare you to effectively work with your healthcare team, to ask the right questions, and make informed decisions.
Meet Maria
I am passionate about helping my students plan and prepare for the birth they desire. Whatever your ideal birth may be, I believe that all parents benefit from being informed, feeling empowered, and approaching birth with excitement and confidence. I will work with you to make sure you have the tools and support to strive for the birth experience you envision!
I have witnessed incredible transformations in parents who have embraced the HypnoBirthing program. I have seen them grow closer, deepen their bonds with their babies, and apply the skills they’ve learned to everyday life, helping them reduce stress, build confidence, and make empowered decisions. It’s truly a privilege to share this program and be part of beautiful journeys toward a more joyful and fulfilling birthing experience!

How do I choose a HypnoBirthing facilitator?
When selecting a HypnoBirthing facilitator, look for someone who is certified. The Mongan Method educators are certified by the HypnoBirthing Institute. Ask to chat with the educator. A good facilitator should create a comfortable and supportive environment. You may also want to ask about class size, availability, and ongoing support throughout your pregnancy.

While HypnoBirthing is especially helpful for parents seeking a natural, medication-free birth, the
