“Being pregnant for the second time had brought a lof of fear as someone who did not have a positive experience during my first labor. The Mind-Body, Birth Signature Course…was exactly what I needed to feel confident in myself and my body. Dr. Sam Vaive is truly compassionate and knowledgeable. ”

About Dr. V

Hi, I’m Samantha Vaive, PhD (she/her)

Founder of Sound Birthing and creator of the Mind-Body, Birth™️ approach to fearless childbirth.

I’m a psychologist specializing in the biopsychosocial aspects of childbirth. I’m also trained as a clinical social worker, sexual health educator, a Yoga instructor and a certified sound therapist. My work blends research-backed education with holistic practices to help people move through birth without fear—and into postpartum with support, clarity, and connection.

I’m also the voice behind Cookies and Tea with Dr. V on YouTube and TikTok, where I talk life, sex, and birth with honesty, vulnerability and zero judgement.

I’m available for speaking engagements, workshops, and media features. Want to connect? Get in touch.
