Hi, I’m Gina (she/her)
I’m passionate about helping people like you through concerns that may feel vulnerable, with a safe space for healing that centers the mind-body connection.
I welcome you to work with me, where you can be seen, heard, and supported.
I’m a pelvic floor occupational therapist and clinic owner.
I created Anxious Pelvis Clinic to provide high quality pelvic healthcare that gets to the root of your issues, while considering every aspect of your health and who you are.
I believe in providing care that centers the individual, actively listens to your concerns, and gives you the true time and attention that you deserve.
Trauma Informed Care —
The pelvic floor can respond to our experiences, good and bad, big and small, and often subconsciously.
It can be vulnerable work. When working directly with this area, I believe there is a responsibility as a provider to ensure increased safety, comfortability, and consent in my treatments. This not only allows you to feel safer as a patient, but it also allows for more success in easing your symptoms. Sometimes symptoms can be a direct result of this trauma, lack of consent, and/or lack of safety. Therefore, it is crucial to have a specialized lens in this element of the body for more effective therapy.
I’m a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, and have additional training and education in working with trauma, the nervous system, and consent. I continue to pursue education and skill building on this so that I can show up for you in the way your nervous system needs and deserves.
Sexual Health Training —
Yes, sex is part of pelvic health. However, there are so many elements that go into someone’s sexual health and experience. In my first years as a pelvic floor therapist, with standard training in sexual dysfunction related to pelvic health, I felt I was still missing core elements to holistic treatment.
I then pursed a Pelvic Sex Counseling Certificate from Pelvic Global Academy. The tools and skills from this training allow me to address more of the biopsychosocial elements of your sexual health. My approach to care is not your average pelvic floor therapy. If it applies to you, we may be focusing on more sex counseling techniques to help you combat feelings of shame, address your sexual desire + arousal, know your needs/wants/preferences, and have the skills to communicate it all.
I’m also a Certified Sexuality OT from the Institute for Sex and Occupational Therapy. This means, that as an occupational therapist, I have additional training in addressing sex with my patients that is specific to my occupational therapy lens.
Inclusive, Holistic, Specialized Care —
You might see these words tossed around, I want to tell you what I mean by them. Pelvic health includes your bowel health, bladder health, mental health, sexual health. So much can impact these health areas — fear, hormones, biomechanics, scar tissue, pressure management, nutrition, infections, chronic conditions, habits, awareness, anxiety, positioning, and so much more. Therefore, all of these aspects have to be considered to see the whole picture. My training dives into multiple areas of health and sometimes that includes the knowledge and awareness of which referrals to provide you. You deserve a specialized team, and the most important person on that team is you.
When I entered pelvic health over 4 years ago, I felt drawn to the mind-body, somatic connection.
The pelvic floor can be impacted by our stress, trauma, memories, and feelings of shame. The stories of what people endure paired with the minimal support after, drive me to keep providing this care. I’ve continued my skills further on the relationship of pelvic health and psychology through “Pelvicology” training by Paige Genova. I myself am frequently working towards optimizing my own pelvic floor and pelvic health, but I am privileged to have this knowledge on how to do so.
There is such a high lack of education and awareness around pelvic health.
Not to mention poor messaging out there, setting our pelvic floors up for even more pain and dysfunction. Especially in a world that shames people for their bodies and sexuality, we must create spaces for healing and combating the aftermath. To make matters worse, time and again patients are being dismissed by providers, not acknowledged for their pain or concerns, and even traumatized or re-traumatized when receiving care. This is not okay.
I am fueled by the misinformation promoting shame towards sexuality, body image, and genitalia, that then leads to pain and pelvic dysfunction.
I am passionate about breaking down these beliefs, spreading trustable information, and providing safe spaces for people to address vulnerable issues.
