Hello! Welcome.
I’m Denise.
I am a believer in love and healing, here to support through your struggles, whether they be with fertility, intimacy, sexuality, or self-acceptance. I have seen how the mind, body, and spirit can heal through loving connection and honest discussion, and I am honored to have you on this journey.
I believe that it is this through deep healing that our elusive dreams finally begin to show themselves, and miracles begin to happen. And so I work with individuals and couples from all walks of life as they navigate the struggles with fertility and intimacy.
Love Can Heal
in more ways than we can fathom
My Story
I have spent my career in acupuncture and chinese medicine helping patients overcome fertility issues, cancer complications, and on-going struggles with pain. But it was on my own fertility journey that I began to see the need for more open communication about intimacy and sexuality. And as I continued seeing patients for fertility support in my practice, I saw how much stress trying to conceive was putting on relationships. So I began advising couples about subjects that were too embarrassing for them to broach on their own; and they began to find success in a whole new way, from a place of connection and wholeness.
This is how my work as a fertility and intimacy coach began. Since then, I have showed hundreds of patients how to approach baby-making without putting stress on the relationship — I show them how to keep their passion alive.
Sexuality is the Final Frontier
Our society has become far more open than previous decades, and yet, sexuality remains taboo. Instead of having the freedom to discuss the difficulties we encounter, we keep quiet. Because why risk the embarrassment?
It’s time for change. Let’s put the conversation about sex on the map, and get shame out of the equation. It’s time for us to talk about what’s going on with our bodies, because its time to start working through it. My book “Conceiving with Love” is the first step
