Lorena Teran (she​/​her), CLD, CPD, CCCE, CLC, started her journey working with families and their little ones in different fields over 35 years ago. Lorena was born and raised in Panama, and with a North American and a Panamanian parent, she brings with her a little taste of multicultural integration. As a little girl, she always was inclined towards mothers and babies, and now is a blessed mother of three amazing young adults. Her passion is to share tools to empower birthing people to trust their bodies, strengthen the connection between parents and children, nurturing each member of the family, so a personalized balance can be achieved. Her devotion is to share the wonders of prenatal psychology and bonding, empower parents to advocate for themselves during childbirth, supporting the birthing parent and their loved ones; highlighting their own strength, and recognizing divergent traditions and cultures. She honors the hard work babies contribute during this process, and wakes awareness to the recovery needed during the postpartum period. She brings with her tools that ease pain, fears, and unknowns, to navigate labor and the welcoming of their newborn(s), enhancing the trust in their innate parenting abilities, and continuing with a strong structure for a parent​/​child life-lasting relationship. Lorena lives in Gypsum, CO, she travels all over the world supporting families to share her knowledge, she appreciates nature, respects each individual’s decisions, and is dedicated to promoting global harmony.
