With a deep fascination for the art of connection, I coach individuals (and couples) on all aspects of love, dating, relationships, marriage, and building lasting chemistry.
Real talk for real relationships
Whether it’s authentically marketing yourself online, creating magnetic moments in real life, or picking yourself up from a recent breakup or divorce, I bring a wealth of knowledge and robust advice to every coaching session.
From intimacy and sex to fostering genuine desire and lasting connection, I’m here to guide you in mastering the skills that lead to meaningful, fulfilling relationships.
No one is born knowing how to be successful in relationships, and it’s certainly not taught in school. Esther Perel famously says, “The quality of your life is determined by the quality of your relationships.” Let’s transform your love life together.
Love, family, and travel rank as my top three passions in life.
With an extensive career spanning 18 years in Recruitment and Admissions across various sectors including start-ups, nonprofits, government, investment banks, and higher education, I bring incredibly rich experience engaging with tens of thousands of individuals to my coaching practice. A graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with degrees in Psychology and Political Science, I have also worked as a Senior Admissions Counselor for The Wharton School at The University of Pennsylvania. My diverse background includes studying abroad in London through UNC’s Honors Program and a summer spent teaching children in a rural village in Uganda.
Despite having my first marriage end, I am an ardent believer both in love and marriage. Dating, relationships, love, marriage, sex, and intimacy are my favorite topics of conversation.
After divorce, I found love again...
Three years ago, I found love again in Southern California, where I met my husband Mark (actually, our initial connection was on Instagram!). Despite the distance, we nurtured our relationship across coasts for 2.5 years, commuting back and forth every other week. We exchanged vows in front of our loved ones this October in the beautiful Santa Barbara wine country, and I am thrilled to embark on this new chapter of love and companionship while continuing to support men and women on their journey to love and partnership.
As my first marriage was unraveling, I grappled with the fear that happiness might elude me forever; that I wouldn't weather the storm. I was worried I would never meet someone I’d fall in love with and that dating would be impossible. I'm here to assure you that not only can you find happiness in dating and a rich relationship, but you have the potential to craft a life even more fulfilling than your wildest dreams. I'm committed to guiding and supporting you (and possibly your partner or spouse!) every step of the way. Let’s go.

Testimonials
"It was overwhelming to get back on the dating apps, and getting back into this new dating world; I looked it almost like just as we have attorneys for legal matters and accountants for tax matters, I wanted someone in my someone in my corner when it came to dating, and someone to get real world perspective from; Anna has done that so incredibly well. She has also pumped up and given so much confidence to go on these dates that it’s made them really fun and I’ve attracted some incredible people into my life. Anna is an amazing person and has helped me have success in my dating life that I couldn’t have achieved otherwise without her."

"I was lucky enough to have Anna as my coach during one of the most challenging periods of my life. Anna’s empathy and understanding made me feel seen and heard. Anna guided me through what dating after divorce could look like. She helped transform my fears of loneliness and anxiousness into excitement about finding a new partner. With her guidance, I now have a clear understanding of what I want and what I need to avoid in a partner. Dating has become a fun and fulfilling experience, thanks to Anna’s support and wisdom."
Zach F.
"I had the pleasure of working with Anna during one of the most challenging periods of my life. Initially, I was uncertain whether to try and make my marriage work post-infidelity or to move on and file for divorce. I was apprehensive that she might push me toward a particular decision, but that wasn’t the case at all. Anna’s empathy and understanding made me feel seen and heard. She never judged me or made decisions on my behalf. Through our sessions, Anna helped me step back and view my situation without the heavy weight of emotions clouding my judgment. This clarity was crucial in making the best decision for both my kids and myself."
Todd M.
“Anna has been so helpful in my post-divorce journey. She is down-to-earth, relatable, and put me right at ease. She has prompted thoughtful discussion and introspection and provided useful, practical tools and resources that have helped me focus in on what is important to me and what I want my life, relationships, and co-parenting journey to look like moving forward. It has been such a gift to be able to talk to someone without judgment and feel supported.”
Jennifer W.
"From our very first session, I felt heard and supported. Anna provided a safe space to express my emotions, while also providing realistic actionable strategies for me as I entered into the dating world after my second divorce. I am so thankful I found her; I learned so much from Anna; she helped me so tremendously get where I am today. I'm not sure I would be here if it wasn't for Anna. I am beyond thankful!"
Erica S.
"Just wanted to reach out and let you know you came to mind this morning. You saw me at my absolute lowest and never made me feel judged, ashamed, or emasculated. You met me right where I was and reassured me that, no matter which direction I wanted to go, everything would be fine—in fact, you said it would be better than ever. I didn’t believe you but I’m so thankful that you spoke with so much conviction and shared parts of your life with me."
