Jenny West, LM, CPM,  HBCE, TBMP,CST, CHt
Jennifer L. West, (AKA Jenny)  has been a practicing midwife since 1989, and has attended over 850 births. She is the owner of Albuquerque Homebirth, a midwifery practice that specializes in water birth and HypnoBirthing®,  Total Body Modification and CranioSacral care. She is also the owner of The Purple Thistle Tea Co. and Dolphin Circle Waterbirth Tub Kits.
Jenny moved to Albuquerque in 1995, after leaving a successful homebirth practice in Montana. Prior to becoming a midwife, she worked for the National Park Service as a park ranger. Five years of law enforcement, emergency medicine, structural and wild land firefighting proved to have been a great background for becoming a midwife, which also involves working with and educating the public on a daily basis.
Jenny taught traditional childbirth classes at two local hospitals for a period of five years, and continues to teach private childbirth preparation classes and infant CPR. In 1999, Jenny became certified to teach American AquaNatal and HypnoBirthing® classes.
She is also the Peer Review Coordinator for all New Mexico licensed midwives, is currently a preceptor for the National College of Midwifery in Taos, New Mexico and is a member of the New Mexico State Midwifery Advisory Board.
Jenny did her CranioSacral training through the Upledger Institute in April of 2006 in Albuquerque with Eric Moya as her instructor (Owner of the Ripple Effect in Albuquerque).  After working with another CranioSacralist in town and having most of her pregnant clients receive at least one CranioSacral treatment prior to their very nice, smooth births, she decided she needed to know how to do these techniques herself.
Jenny's TBM training was started in April of 2005, and she has completed all three modules and repeated Modules one and two just last summer here in Albuquerque when she hosted a training.  This training will carry over into next year (2007)
August of 2006 will see a completion hypnotherapy training with Lois Prinz of the Center for Hypnotherapy.  Both are licensed with the state and with the National Hypnotherapy Guild  I expect a great training and many applications of this to my current work.
Hobbies include reading, dancing, sleeping and when possible, going on a cruise!
