Trauma recovery, intimacy communication, and alternative relationship coaching
for individuals and partners
Feeling inadequate or unsatisfied?
Struggling to connect or communicate?
Dealing with doubt or anxiety?
Seeking pleasure or fresh experiences?
I didn't think we'd ever get back to feeling normal about each other, much less have sex again, but somehow Valerie helped us talk things through and rediscover each other.

Hi I'm Valerie
I help people empower their sexuality
I became a therapist to help people rise out of sexual trauma—like how my therapist helped me.
I transitioned to coaching to offer a broader array of services—and help people solve problems that don’t fit a diagnosis.
Sex-Positive Education
I don't know about you, but my public school sex-ed was not...up to the challenge.
Do you know how to find sex-positive porn? Do you understand the 4 parts of the clitoris? Have you heard of sensate focus? Did anyone ever tell you about consensual non-monogamy?

Sexuality Coaching
Though I once practiced as a licensed sex therapist in Richmond, VA, the systems and strategies I use for group and individual coaching don't fit that regulatory model. That's why I offer coaching instead of therapy.
In coaching we focus less on diagnosing and more on developing tools, habits, and exercises to help you achieve the goals you set.
And we can also schedule coaching sessions with multiple partners for people practicing polyamory.
