I'm all about helping others navigate sex while trying to conceive, pregnant, and postpartum because I understand it can be challenging! There are many obstacles and I believe we shouldn't have to face them alone. Do you feel like you'd benefit from a chat?
From my earliest memories of playing with baby dolls, to babysitting, to watching my nieces, nephews, and babies around me grow up, the role of mother always resonated with me. I remember flipping through pregnancy books especially as I became a case manager for young pregnant parents and noticing the lack of information about sex in the books. The majority of the books I had access to either did not cover the topic of sex or if they did it was something very quick and simple such as, "Sex is typically safe during pregnancy but always consult with a medical provider first. After birth wait until your 6 week check-up". And what I found is that this information just wasn't sufficient. It wasn’t sufficient for me as a professional trying to share information with my clients and certainly not for me as someone who wanted to become a mom one day.
So, I decided to do something about my concern. I went to graduate school and specialized in human sexuality education. I volunteered at Planned Parenthood. I continued diving deeper into readings about sex and pregnancy. I learned so much from the parents around me. In 2020, I began my studies at Sex Coach U so I could enhance my clinical skills and offer my support to families in a new way. I didn't expect I would navigate a global pandemic, cancel my wedding reception and honeymoon, transition my courses and presentations online, mourn a miscarriage and loss of one of my best friends in the same week, or fight through severe morning sickness (why do they call it that!?) while pregnant with my rainbow baby. But here we are. I am grateful and I am a Certified Sex Coach ready to help you navigate challenges you may currently be having or face up ahead.
Not only am I a sex coach but I am also a trained yoga and infant massage instructor. Working with people isn't just a profession or a hobby for me, helping myself and others is truly a passion. I enjoy teaching yoga and massage just as much as I love attending an amazing yoga class or receiving a massage myself.
