Human Connection

Activity sessions are great for those wishing to be more fully engaged through a walk, body doubling, or other active project. This is an excellent way to meet goals as well as keep mind and body healthy and working together, and when we’re our healthiest, we can be healthier partners in healthier relationships.

Valerie’s Approach

Valerie brings careful attention to the many elements that shape success in being a better partner to yourself and others. Thoughtful and perceptive, she asks insightful questions that encourage deeper understanding and a broader perspective on your experiences. With a holistic approach rooted in the mind–body–spirit connection, she emphasizes whole-person exploration rather than relying on a single method or technique.

Her sessions are guided by genuine interest, a personable style, and a preference for “real talk” over jargon. Committed to ongoing learning, Valerie continually integrates new skills and wisdom to ensure your sessions remain fresh, relevant, and effective.

Whether clients seek self-exploration through creative modalities, psychological inspired analysis, pragmatic strategy for transformative change, or general supportive care, Valerie engages with a combination of generous warmth, strong intuition and an expectation to help clients achieve the results they need.

Valerie Bell, M.A

Certified Dating Coach / PsyD Candidate

Valerie is a doctoral candidate of counseling psychology and registered mental health clinician specializing in intimacy and relationship concerns. Currently completing her dissertation on Jungian shadow work and sexuality, she is also preparing for psychologist licensure in California through her private practice training.

Before her psychology career, Valerie worked across entertainment and media, experiences that gave her rare insight into the role of fantasy, vulnerability, and desire in shaping human intimacy. These perspectives continue to inform her integrative, relational approach — where curiosity, compassion, and a respect for the full spectrum of human experience are central.

Beyond her supervised clinical and academic work and her independent work as a coach and consultant, Valerie thrives as a creative force. She is the organizer of Dîner En Feu, and enjoys creating media for her Patreon, both meant to bring people together to engage in important, thought provoking, discussions that are all too often avoided.
