Since 2007 she’s supported clients creating fulfilling integrity-based relationships according to their own rules. In 2020, she published her first book, Love More Fight Less, A Communication Workbook for Every Couple with Penguin Random House. She has since become a bestselling author in personal growth and relationships.

Gina was named Portland’s Best Life Coach in 2018, 2019, and 2020 and has taught psychology courses, communication workshops, couples intimacy retreats, and guest lectured on alternative relationships and sex-positive therapy at universities across the US. Students love her no-nonsense “real talk” presentation style.

Her podcast, Swoon has helped over 10,000 listeners build a more compassionate, creative, confident, and fulfilled society.  Gina offers practical, proven skills to transform relationships in deeply meaningful ways.  

As your coach, her background in psychology, mediation, and communication training has enabled her to offer powerful tools to help clients overcome stuck patterns.  Her uniquely non-judgmental, inclusive approach to personal growth puts even the most concerned clients at ease.  She is not your average sit-and-nod supporter- she'll call you out, and always help you grow.  

Gina has created thousands of tools, worksheets, guides and authored a few books to support relationships.  Get on her email list if you'd like access to her tool library.

When she’s not working you would find her in her lush backyard garden, at hot yoga, running marathons, hosting dinner parties, playing with her two kids, or two-stepping with her partner, Rae.

On New Year’s Day 2025, she left the United States on an international adventure with her family. She currently splits her residency between Portugal, Canada, Italy, and occasionally the U.S.
