& PREMIER LUXURY MEXICAN Chocolate RETREATS
Online Relationship Coaching Sessions Available
As a WOMEN"S EMPOWERMENT COACH with a PhD in Transpersonal Psychology, I guide women on their journey to deepen their relationship to their authentic selves, as I remain deeply rooted in my mission to support, witness, inspire, and empower women to awaken to their full potential, embracing their unique and beautiful gifts, and to step into their sacred feminine power. I help them to identify their goals, heal wounds and trust in their innate strength so they can make the greatest impact in their lives, and truly thrive with radiant health, vitality, passion, purpose, and joy.
-Dr. Ava
Sexuality & Intimacy Coaching for Men
Dr. Pommerenk also specializes in helping men and couples overcome sexual dysfunction issues.
She holds a holistic perspective that helps people immediately understand the multi-faceted causes of performance issues, and systematically focuses upon practical interventions and homework assignments in these areas, in order for you to see immediate improvement.
Dr. Pommerenk is easy to talk to and has a matter-of-fact, non-shaming way of approaching talking about even the most challenging sexual performance issues. She will help you (and your partner) immediately begin to shift the way you are relating to your own challenges, and thus experience freedom from shame and anxiety. This alone, often helps people improve drastically, within the first few sessions.
1 On 1 Empowerment Coaching
If you feel stuck, and unable to find a more satisfying way of life, yet are unclear how you might even begin to make the changes that are necessary, empowerment coaching is for you!
I offer focused time with you, where we:
1.) Identify the problem
2.) Clarify your dream of what you want
3.) Get brutally honest about what is getting in the way of getting what you want
4.) We take measured, clear action-steps to help you finally overcome these internal and external obstacles
I combine my solidly pragmatic and authentic coaching practice, with my ten years of experience and training as a psychotherapist, to work in an existentially, emotionally and psychologically intelligent way with you. I also pull from my experience with regular spiritual practice, to provide a loving, safe, patient, and compassionate container for us to do this work together.
UNDECIDED?
No problem. I offer a one-time, complimentary, 30-minute consultation call, to help guide you to what package or option might be best suited for you, at this time.
I am here to help you discover what, deep down, you already know.
I am here to help you live and be according to your deepest yearnings.
I am here to help you bring these deepest knowing and yearnings to the surface.
I am here to fiercely protect and nurture your life, and help you learn to protect and nurture yourself too.
I am here to not just help you make changes, but to help you truly transform.
For over a decade, I received extensive training in individual psychotherapy, couples counseling, intimacy & sex therapy and group therapy, and I participate in on-going consultation in these disciplines. I have clinical training in AEDP for Couples Therapy as well as many other modalities, philosophies and approaches.
I join my community in experiencing the pains of existence and the processes of learning to work with and transform these pains, rather than be consumed by them. I am above all things, pragmatic. I practice this pragmatism through doing my own on-going training, healing, self-discovery, and growth work and this shows in the work that I do.
I am committed to my personal and professional growth and therefore am actively engaged in ongoing consultation and training in support of my professional growth and competence, as well as my own personal therapy work.
