Clara O’Rourke has been called to birth work for as long as she can remember. Prior to becoming a doula, she served as the Deputy Director for the Worcester Education Collaborative. She is an organizational leader with demonstrated success in project management and impact assessment. Mission-driven, specializing in monitoring and evaluation, collaborative processes, strategic planning, and equity frameworks. Excelling in project management, monitoring and evaluation, and community development. Results-oriented leader, able to pivot to focused action that improved results. She applies all her skill sets to support people to connect with their intuition and birth in their full power. She founded Clear Light Birth to support birthing people and their partners/support people in creating a holistic path to parenthood that reflects their dreams and desires. She is a trauma informed provider who will guide you through any uncharted waters, encourage you to tap into your strong intuition, and support you in feeling grounded in your decisions throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Inspiration for Clear Light Birth comes from the truly transcendent journey people embark on through pregnancy, birth, and parenthood. In Spanish, “to give birth” translates to dar a luz, which literally means to give light. For many, this is a transformational, enlightening, and often spiritual journey. As a queer and neurodivergent person, she is committed to supporting people regardless of their background, race, culture, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or relationship status.
