Specialized Pelvic Health Support
A calming, private space for pelvic healing.
Different than pelvic floor therapy you may have received before.
Every moment of a treatment experience impacts your care. From the intake forms, to the energy of the room, to the safety you feel with the provider in front of you.
We take into account every element of this process to help provide you with a positive, healing experience — whether this is in person at our Denver Anxious Pelvis Clinic or with your virtual coaching calls.

Truly trauma-informed care that not only respects your consent, but helps you harness your own autonomy, safety, and self-advocacy
A compassion-forward, no shame space for healing and addressing topics that deserve support
Effective care that takes into account both current research and lived experience
Not the kind of providers who will dismiss your pain or squeeze you in through a rushed appointment, only to send you off feeling more confused.
In your sessions, we are a team.

Meet Your Therapist
Gina Inglese, MS, OTR/L, CCTS-I, CSOT
Certified Sexuality OT
Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist
Registered Occupational Therapist and Licensed in the state of Colorado and Pennsylvania
Hi, I’m Gina (she/her)
I’m passionate about helping people like you through concerns that may feel vulnerable, with a safe space for healing that centers the mind-body connection.
I welcome you to work with me, where you can be seen, heard, and supported.
I’m a pelvic floor occupational therapist and clinic owner.
I created Anxious Pelvis Clinic to provide high quality pelvic healthcare that gets to the root of your issues, while respecting your autonomy and considering every aspect of your health and identity.
I believe in providing care that puts you at the center, actively listens to your concerns, and gives you the true time and attention that you deserve.
My Experience and Training
I have been specializing in pelvic floor therapy since 2021. I’ve worked and trained in Portland Oregon, outside Philadelphia Pennsylvania, and now in Denver, Colorado, allowing me the privileged to treat a variety of patients and learn from incredible therapists across the US.
✷ I have specialty training and experience working with trauma.
The pelvic floor can respond to our experiences, good and bad, big and small, and often subconsciously.
It can be vulnerable work. When working directly with this area, I believe there is a responsibility as a provider to ensure increased safety, comfortability, and consent in my treatments. This not only allows you to feel safer as a patient, but it also allows for more success in easing your symptoms. Sometimes symptoms can be a direct result of this trauma, lack of consent, and/or lack of safety. Therefore, it is crucial to have a specialized lens in this element of the body for more effective therapy.
✷ I’m a certified sexuality OT from the Institute of Sex and Occupational Therapy, and I have a certificate in pelvic sex counseling from Pelvic Global Academy.
Yes, sex is part of pelvic health. However, there are so many elements that go into someone’s sexual health and experience. In my first years as a pelvic floor therapist, with standard training in sexual dysfunction related to pelvic health, I felt I was still missing core elements to holistic treatment.
After training in sex counseling, these new tools and skills allow me to take my treatments a step further in addressing the biopsychosocial elements of your sexual health. My approach to care is not your average pelvic floor therapy. If it applies to you, we may be incorporating sex counseling techniques to help you combat feelings of shame, address your sexual desire + arousal, know your needs/wants/preferences, and have the skills to communicate it all. This can actually play a huge role in pelvic floor symptom presentation.
✷ My pelvic health training pulls from a variety of approaches and focuses on inclusive, holistic pelvic care.
You might see these words tossed around, I want to tell you what I mean by them. Pelvic health includes your bowel health, bladder health, mental health, sexual health. So much can impact these health areas — fear, hormones, biomechanics, scar tissue, pressure management, nutrition, infections, chronic conditions, habits, awareness, anxiety, positioning, and so much more. Therefore, all of these aspects have to be considered to see the whole picture. I have training in everything from general pelvic health treatment, peri-menopause care, scar tissue and adhesion work, pelvic lymph and vascular drainage, nervous system regulation, endometriosis, tailbone manipulation, pregnancy & postpartum care, pain reprocessing methods, advanced bowel & bladder treatments, and more! My training dives into multiple areas of health and sometimes that includes the knowledge and awareness of which referrals to provide you. You deserve a specialized team, and the most important person on that team is you.
“Ever since I first entered occupational therapy, I felt drawn to the mind-body, somatic connection.
Outside of medical history, the pelvic floor can be impacted by our stress, trauma, memories, shame, identity, and more. The stories of what my patients have endured paired with the minimal support after, drives me to keep providing this care.
There is such a high lack of education and awareness around pelvic health.
Not to mention detrimental messaging and information circulating that sets our pelvic floors up for even more pain and dysfunction. In a world that shames people for their bodies and sexuality, we must create spaces for healing and combat the aftermath. The best way to combat the predatory system, is to know your body and connect with all of the beautiful power that it holds.
On top of that, patients are repeatedly being dismissed by providers, not acknowledged for their pain or concerns, and even traumatized or re-traumatized when receiving care. This is not okay.
I am fueled by the misinformation promoting shame towards sexuality, body image, and genitalia, that then leads to pain and pelvic dysfunction.
I am passionate about breaking down these beliefs, spreading trustable information, and providing safe spaces for people to address vulnerable issues.” - Gina
