My Approach to Helping

Welcome! My husband, Charles C. Bird, Ph.D, and I are Board Certified Clinical Sexologists and Relationship Experts. We help couples, like you, discover more connection and passion in their relationships. The couples we work with want to enhance their relationship by improving their communication, intimacy, sexual function, and/or sexual expression. We coach/counsel couples together which offers a unique and balanced male/female perspective and a combined coaching/therapy approach to helping our clients with a variety of relationship and sexual issues/concerns. Due to our last name and the work we do, we have become known as "The Love Birds"
