Christina O'Brien

Christina O’Brien is a perinatal doula serving families in the Bay Area of Houston, Texas. She is deeply passionate about restoring a sense of community and comfort during the postpartum experience. With a focus on evidence-based, culturally sensitive, and holistic practices, Christina supports families in ways that honor the whole self—physically, mentally, and emotionally. Her work centers on helping clients trust their intuition, advocate for their needs, and step into parenthood feeling supported and empowered. 

 Christina holds a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center-New Orleans, giving her a unique lens of clinical knowledge. She is a Full-Spectrum Certified Doula, trained through Paradigm Doulas, and has additional education in holistic perinatal practices including herbal care, belly binding, and nutrition/meal preparation. As a trauma-informed doula, Christina is dedicated to creating safe and soothing spaces that bring dignity and comfort to each family’s story.

First and foremost, Christina is a mother to four red-headed “wild ones.” Her own birth and postpartum experiences—both joyful and challenging—inspire her to offer the steady, nonjudgmental support she believes every family deserves. Christina understands what it’s like to plan carefully and still be surprised by life’s unfolding, and she deeply values the support that can emerge from unexpected places. Having experienced a range of births—including C-section, VBAC, medicated, and unmedicated—she brings firsthand insight into the empowerment and vulnerability that accompany new beginnings. With empathy and active listening, Christina meets each client where they are, guiding them with compassion and care.

When she’s not supporting families, Christina loves hosting healing women’s circles, reading, cooking, traveling, writing, singing, laughing, napping and taking her family on camping adventures.

My work is about strengthening the village- because every parent deserves to lean on one. 

My goal is to ensure you feel nurtured and informed throughout the process, while recognizing this journey is uniquely yours.
