Meet the Team
Gabriella Gunter LM, CPM Owner
Gabriella (Bri) Gunter is the owner of Embrace Birth Center. Bri studied at the Mercy In Action College of Midwifery and apprenticed in her native East Texas. She was licensed in 2021 and worked at Seeds of Grace and then in her own private practice. After licensing she continued her education with Breech Without Borders, Spinning Babies, and Birth Emergency Skills workshops.
Bri is passionate about continuing education and client choice. She loves keeping her knowledge base up-to-date with constant research and classes, and delivering truly evidence-based information to her clients so that they can make the best decisions for themselves and their families. This allows her to work with clients to create a uniquely personalized plan of care that suits each family.
Nutrition and a holistic approach are also key components to Bri’s philosophy of midwifery care. She believes that food is one of the most important and empowering ways that a woman can change the course of her overall health and pregnancy and that a holistic approach to nutrition, lifestyle, and herbal remedies is key to maintaining a low-risk healthy pregnancy.
Megan Loewen LM, CPM
Megan has been serving families in the birth world since 2015 and brings a deep passion for safe, compassionate, and personalized care. Her journey into midwifery was inspired by her great-grandmother, a midwife and healer in the early 1900s, ad a lifelong draw to the sacred process of birth.
With a background in healthcare as a CNA, phlebotomist, doula, and lactation consultant, Megan brings a well-rounded, trauma-informed perspective to her midwifery care. She trained through the Association of Texas Midwives program and completed extensive clinical apprenticeships, attending hundreds of prenatal visits, births, and postpartum appointments. She became a Certified Professional Midwife in 2024 and is licensed by the state of Texas.
Megan believes in honoring the birth experience for both mother and baby, and supporting families with evidence-based care, intuition, and respect. Outside of midwifery, but also very much intertwined, she is a mother of six, a proud nanna, and a wife of 12 years.
