'Ring the bells that still can ring; forget your perfect offering; there is a crack in everything; it's how the light gets in.' (Leonard Cohen) When clients come in with cracks in their lives, I am committed to pointing towards the light. I love my job.

I encourage my clients to connect to an inner, Loving Wisdom -- and I am committed to doing the same. It is through that connection that we both are healed.

The pressure of being a woman in today’s society can be challenging, even for the most successful. The idea that we have to “do it all” in order to “have it all” can be overwhelming. Each stage of a woman's life can present a different set of challenges. Are you struggling as you are entering into adulthood or find retirement to be a challenge? Somewhere in-between? Do you feel guilty because you chose a career over a family, or a family over a career? Maybe you chose both but feel you are not living up to your or everyone else's expectations? Do you feel like part of your life is missing but you are not sure how to find it?

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and I’m passionate about helping professional adults learn how to reclaim their time, implement healthier boundaries, learn positive coping skills, and improve their mood day to day. My general focus is Anxiety, women's issues and burnout. At Destination Therapy, the majority of my practice focuses on clients struggling to balance their roles at home, work and within their relationships. I also support clients in managing their anxiety or working through challenges they are facing relating to their identity, perfectionism or self-esteem.

I am a intimacy coach and sex educator. I inspire women to be their real selves in the bedroom, to stop performing and instead, take the time to discover what “great sex” really is for them. Because in this male-dominated culture almost everything we have been taught about sex for generations has originated from a male point-of-view and it’s time to level the playing field. If not for ourselves, for our daughters and generations to come. Go to www.linktr.ee/vivalibida for links to all the things!
