Nope. I am a huge advocate for therapy and passionate about inclusive mental healthcare. Therapy focuses on healing past wounds and mental health. While we will revisit past experiences together, my coaching is forward-focused, helping you build self-awareness, embodied skills, and authentic relationships so you can thrive in the life you desire.

We will work towards well-defined goals and create specific, individualized plans of action in order to accomplish them. I believe this style of coaching is a very powerful supplement to traditional therapies, and offer to collaborate with other practitioners to create a cohesive mental health plan.

I am deeply committed to my continuing education. In my experience, I do my best work when I’m engaged in my own learning. I continue to diversify my knowledge by being educated through varied, reputable institutions, organizations, and individuals on a variety of subjects.

After receiving two advanced degrees in academia and participating in several certification programs in the wellness space, I have found that there is a massive amount of gatekeeping in the world of education. This is not something I choose to engage with, especially as there is a lot of room in the wellness space to take financial advantage of people. And I am happy to discuss or provide my resume and qualifications upon request.

I work with clients across the gender spectrum of all identities, orientations, races, and religions. I welcome those that choose both traditional and non-traditional relationship structures, and couples looking to explore non-monogamy.

As I am an active participant in the relationship that develops with my clients, it’s important to me that I share my energy with people who believe in equity, safety, and care for all marginalized communities.

No, there is no situation in which I engage in, perform, or observe any sexual acts in my coaching practice. We may work with erotic energy, erotic charge, or desire and arousal, none of which requires sex to experience.

This is a hands-on practice, but that is not a requirement in order to reap the full rewards of somatic work. You can decide to move from hands-off to hands-on coaching or vice versa, at any time.

Coaching relationships tend to end upon the accomplishment of the client’s specific goals and successful ability to use their new tools out in the world. Everyone is different and I respect that this process will look and feel unique with each of my clients. For some, we’ll get there in a few months; for others I become a trusted companion on their healing journey over the course of years.

My suggestion is to come in with no expectations of how long this will take and just listen to your intuition. However your journey unfolds, I’ll be there celebrating with you at the finish line.

I require 24-hours notice for cancellations or reschedules. If you cancel or reschedule in less than 24-hours you will be charged a $100 fee. A no-show session will be charged the full session rate.

I get it, this feels like a big decision and you might not be totally sure what you’re even signing up for. If any of the following resonates with you, it’s worth a 30-minute phone call:

• Doomscrolling “influencers” leaves me feeling the need to crash diet/get to the gym but the idea of people seeing my body in spandex is too cringey. I feel stuck.

• I’m distractible during sex and find myself thinking about the To Do List or the show I’m bingeing or my kids’ schedules or the dishes in the sink or...

• My upbringing was very conservative and as a result I have lots of conflicting feelings and shame around my sexuality.

• I space the hell right out and have no idea what to do or say when my partner talks about their feelings or gets emotional.

• Some people seem so effortlessly confident, why can’t I be like that?

• My partner wants to have way more sex than I do. I don’t want to let them down but I’m just not feeling it.

• Sometimes I completely fly off the handle at my partner, even when they’re just trying to be nice.

• I wouldn’t even know how to answer my partner if they asked what I wanted in bed. It would probably just be too embarrassed and awkward to talk about.
