Hello, I'm Val
I am open-hearted and open-minded.
I love truth telling and the alive edge that shows up in the courage to be vulnerable.
​
I bow to the willingness to unabashedly be ourselves.
I believe we need to embrace the raw material of who we are and learn to work with that in self-compassionate ways.
​
I believe if we truly learn to listen to each other we can find magnificent wins-wins in any situation. And I believe that our job to create a world where everyone wins.
​
I believe that challenges have gems of intimacy and gifts of growth inside them if we turn towards, instead of turning away from them.
​​
I love singing, dancing, trees, and mountains.
A bit about my work
I am a couples communication coach.
​
I enjoy helping couples of all genders and dynamics to use their bumps and challenges to grow in the love, trust, and knowing of each other.
​
I enjoy helping couples learn a concrete set of skills that they can use in challenging moments to move through conflict more easily and only grow in their love for one another.
​
I enjoy helping people get whatever gunk and stuff out of the way so they can thoroughly and expressively and creatively be who they truly are.
​​
I am not a couples therapist; I am a coach and teacher. I work in deep dives and in intensive format. You will learn a concrete set of skills that you can use to make hard moments easier, and grow each of your capacities to help each other feel seen and heard.
