Founder, Reiki Postpartum Doula
About Shadreya “Dreya” Crudup
Welcome to Salvage Soul, a space where holistic care meets the transformative journey of postpartum healing. I’m Shadreya "Dreya" Crudup, and I’m here to support mothers and families through their postpartum experience with a blend of Reiki healing and compassionate doula services.
My Journey
I understand that navigating the postpartum phase can feel overwhelming, exhausting, and isolating. My journey into the postpartum care space wasn’t a typical one—I wasn’t a mother myself, but I’ve always had a deep passion for helping others. For years, I struggled to establish a successful postpartum practice. I faced inconsistent income, low self-esteem, and burnout while trying to help others during such a vulnerable time. But I was determined to make a difference.
The turning point came when I realized that in order to truly support families, I needed to empower myself first. I immersed myself in learning about social media, seeking ways to reach a broader audience of expecting and postpartum mothers.
Through the support of my peers and my own dedication, I built the knowledge and system that allowed me to grow and thrive in this space. With 8 years of experience in caregiving, I took it a step further in May 2024 by becoming a certified postpartum doula. But I didn’t stop there. I also integrated my love for Reiki into my practice. Reiki has allowed me to bring healing and emotional balance to the mothers I support—whether in-person or remotely—helping them reconnect with their own strength, promote healing, and reduce stress during this transitional period.
My Philosophy
At Salvage Soul, I combine the principles of Reiki with postpartum care because I believe that healing happens on all levels—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. My approach is grounded in empathy, mindfulness, and a deep respect for each person’s unique journey. I’m here to support mothers, partners, and families as they adjust to their new normal, without sacrificing their mental, emotional, or physical health.
The work I do is all about nurturing balance, restoring energy, and empowering families to thrive during one of the most transformative times in their lives.
My Commitment

I am committed to offering you the tools, support, and guidance you need to navigate postpartum life with confidence. Whether you're seeking Reiki sessions to help you release stress and find balance, or you need a postpartum doula to guide you through the practical and emotional aspects of new parenthood, I’m here to help you every step of the way.
At Salvage Soul, my mission is clear: to empower you with the support you deserve, creating a safe space where healing and personal growth are not only possible but celebrated.
