Veronica
Veronica is a Certified Somatica intimacy, relationship and sex coach, practicing in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her passion is deeply connecting with others as a means to reflect, heal, and generate more love. She has bravely faced her own sexual shame and intimacy anxiety, found self-compassion, and grown to lean on the resources and support around her. She can’t wait to help you transform and step into your power as well.
Veronica believes that people can do incredible things – and open themselves up to the relationships and sexual experiences they truly desire. All it takes is courage and a willingness to reach out. She deeply attunes to her clients and creates a comforting place for clients to be heard and seen, and explore vulnerably. She helps her clients find emotional and erotic empowerment and release sexual and relationship shame so they can become their most centered and confident selves.
Graduating in Gender & Women’s Studies from The University of Arizona, Veronica acted as the Director for Feminist Engagement there. She focused on peer education for sexual assault prevention, awareness, and healthy relationships empowerment for Sororities, Fraternities and first-year students.
She also brings a wealth of knowledge and intimate understanding about different identities to her practice. Veronica recognizes their unique struggles in relationships due to socialization, and the dominant cultural norms we all face. She can’t wait to help you with your goals, and feels a special affinity for helping the current generation navigate hookup culture, with its inherent anxieties and communication challenges.
Veronica sees clients in Berkeley, the San Francisco, East Bay and the South Bay Areas.
Contact coach
“After the realization that – while on a date – I was avoiding eye contact, covering my face and mouth at times and mumbling, I decided I needed help.
I needed help to lessen the entanglement my brain would go through in these periods of stress. I googled around and found Veronica.
From the first session, she helped take the stigma away from what I was going through. She helped to normalize seeking assistance, and seeking to improve my intimacy. From that moment, I didn’t feel alone and more importantly, I had a teammate there with me, helping me along. Before I knew it, I was sharing to a level I never knew I was capable of, and I was being heard and understood.
Veronica taught me skills that I don’t know how I have lived without, specifically connective embodiment. Here she gave me the power and ability to connect with myself. This has been such a huge addition to my life. I have been able to learn how to get out of my own head and connect with my body. Being able to do this means I don’t have to be the victim of the absurd negative scenarios my mind creates. I can gain peace, confidence and an altered perspective of my body.
I trust and greatly respect Veronica, not just because of the results I’m seeing, but also because of how skillfully she built a rapport with me, how each session challenges my preconceived ideas, and how expertly she crafts practical moments of learning.”
