Coaching for Healing Artists, Creatives, and Desire Based Living.

I am a multidisciplinary artist and trauma-informed somatic coach who supports clients in the following ways:

​

SPIRITUAL PSYCHOLOGY MEETS SOMATIC HEALING WORK. We use the mind in service to the heart with Spiritual Psychology and your body as the guide in somatic healing work. You can bring anything into a session, challenging or celebratory, to be worked with and integrated somatically.  I share practical tools, so you can come into alignment with yourself and develop a deeper sense of self-trust and self-compassion.

​

CREATIVE EXPRESSION & DEVELOPMENT OF OFFERINGS. With over a decade of experience working with entrepreneurs in backend systems creation and visual design, I support clients in bringing their ideas into structure and form. From personal art projects to developing workshops & digital courses, I thrive in the collaborative creative space and help clients bring their vision to life. 

 

SEX & INTIMACY COACHING FOR WOMEN & MEN. I love supporting clients who are already in relationships and want to deepen connections and explore new aspects of sex, as well as people not in partnership who are ready to call in new lovers and partners. I have a deep reverence for true desire and enjoy being a safe place for conversations around any type of relating - monogamous, open, polyamorous, etc. I approach sex from a lens of non-judgment, play, exploration, and honest communication. 

​

My ultimate mission with coaching is to support individuals in following their heart's desires and step toward what they truly want in this lifetime.

​

With a background in Spiritual Psychology, I understand that as people move toward their goals, unresolved material arises. This is often what stops people from stepping fully into their passions. In my coaching containers, I support clients on both their goal-line movement and the healing and resolution of the inner material that would normally discourage forward movement. I utilize somatic practices to anchor learnings and clear outdated beliefs, dissolve stuck trauma, and support my clients in developing a more loving relationship with themselves. 
 

I am a graduate of The University of Santa Monica’s Spiritual Psychology program (2005) with an emphasis in Consciousness, Health & Healing (2012), as well as coaching programs devoted to somatics, the practice & research of sex, desire, communication, and man/woman dynamics. I've completed the Level I Macrobiotic training at the Kushi Institute and have studied a wide range of topics, including songwriting, storytelling, photography, dance, graphic design, and more.

What My Clients Say...

Working with Anita was truly life-changing for me. She was incredibly attuned and helped me feel so safe while working through deeply difficult emotions and longstanding anxiety. She taught me how to feel safe within myself as I processed long-held emotions, beliefs, and patterns.
 

Anita helped me recognize my own progress, even when I was often blind to it myself. She became such a safe place for me to be vulnerable, and I always felt comfortable sharing the most tender parts of myself with her.
 

She holds exquisite space and is deeply attuned, nurturing, loving, and compassionate, while also being fierce when needed. Having worked with many different practitioners over the years, I can honestly say that Anita is one of the best practitioners I have ever worked with. I wholeheartedly recommend working with her.

Working with Anita has been one of the more meaningful investments I've made in becoming a more grounded, present, and authentic man.

It isn't a particular technique or exercise... It's the way Anita shows up. Her presence, her capacity to hold space without judgment, and the depth of her own inner work created a level of safety that allowed me to explore parts of myself I had spent years avoiding. Some of those places carried deep shame, grief, and pain from my past. With Anita, I never felt pushed or rushed. I felt gently guided, deeply seen, and trusted to move at the pace that was right for me.

It has taught me my strength. Instead of looking to someone else for answers, I began trusting myself in ways I never had before. Anita didn't teach me to depend on her; she helped me reconnect with my own inner knowing. That has been one of the greatest gifts of our work together.

As I've continued this journey, I've noticed myself showing up differently in every area of my life. I'm more present. More aware. More capable of staying with difficulty instead of avoiding it. I've released layers of shame that I didn't realize were shaping how I moved through the world. And I feel more deeply rooted in the kind of man I want to be, one who can lead with presence, strength, honesty, and an open heart.

If you're considering working with Anita, know that you'll be met with extraordinary care, wisdom, and compassion. She doesn't try to fix you. She creates the conditions for you to discover and embody more of who you already are
