About Me

The Short Version

Hi, I’m Bridget (she/they). I'm a Somatica®-trained sex and relationship coach who helps intellectually-driven people get out of their heads and into their bodies so they can actually feel pleasure, desire, and connection.

I work with folks who are done talking about their sex lives and ready to actually change them.

The Longer Story

I came to this work through lived experience, not just training.

I spent decades in a relationship that looked functional on the outside but was quietly corrosive on the inside. I know what it's like to lose yourself in someone else's needs. I know what it's like to wake up one day and realize you've been performing intimacy instead of actually feeling it. I know what it’s like to live in your head, and not your heart.

Transitioning out of that relationship and rebuilding my erotic self wasn't an intellectual exercise—it was a full-body reckoning. It required me to learn things I thought I already knew: how to feel safe in my own skin, how to ask for what I want, how to receive pleasure without apologizing for it.

The Somatica® gave me the tools to do that work. It taught me how to set boundaries, how to find safety in my body, and how to reconnect with my own desires.

Why I Do This Work

As a Harvard-trained PhD in social anthropology, I spent years studying how culture shapes bodily experience—how social conditioning gets under our skin and tells us what we're allowed to want, feel, and desire.

Now I work with that knowledge differently: helping people recognize and move beyond the internalized limits that keep them stuck, frustrated, or disconnected when it comes to sex and intimacy.

I believe shame is a tool of social control. We're taught to feel ashamed of our desires, our bodies, our needs—and that shame keeps us small, disconnected, and easier to manage. Deshamifying isn't just personal healing; it's political. When we reclaim our right to pleasure and authentic connection, we're pushing back against systems that profit from our self-doubt.

For those of us who've spent our lives leading with our intellect, coming home to the body can be the most radical act of all.

My Approach

I'm trained in the Somatica® Method, which is experiential rather than theoretical. We don't just talk about concepts—we practice them in real time. My office is a laboratory where you can try on new ways of connecting, communicating, and experiencing pleasure.

I bring a sex-positive, kink-aware, and non-judgmental perspective. I'm neurodivergent myself, and my practice is explicitly friendly to LGBTQIA+ folks, people in alternative relationship structures, and anyone whose desires don't fit neatly into mainstream boxes.

What I Believe

I believe that when pleasure becomes politicized, connection becomes revolutionary. In a world that profits from our isolation and shame—and rewards us for living in our heads—learning to inhabit our desires authentically is an act of resistance.

Healing happens through experience, not just insight. And transformation is possible. I know because I've lived it.
