Transforming Lives: Full Spectrum Doula Care at Healing Internationale
Empowering Communities through Integrative Health and Education
Founded in 2018 by Natalie Peña, Healing Internationale is on a mission to harness technology for the purpose of providing sexual and reproductive health to communities that may be socially or culturally unable to access healing and education. Our practice methods are carefully crafted to assist clients and communities in living healthier, more pleasurable lives, with a strong focus on intergenerational healing and transformative education.
Our interdisciplinary work relies on an integrative health model developed by those who have embraced more than one method of healing. In the Western world, healing and medicine have traditionally been viewed as separate processes. While many individuals working in traditional medicine initially aimed for healing, there are still many communities that may not be socially or culturally able to achieve true healing through a visit to a doctor or practitioner. Our programs are designed for clients who have chosen to live with purpose, alongside their loved ones and new generations of communities on an international scale. That's why, at Healing Internationale, we've chosen to do things differently.
Our dedicated team of coaches, doulas, and providers is here to support you at any stage in life. We are committed to helping you and your family find balance amid the ever-evolving demands of our closest bonds and relationships.
