Let's lean in together to get to the core of what’s not working, so we can move towards your deepest longing for the relationship. Research shows that people learn, re~pattern and make changes by engaging in an actual embodied experience. Much of the work in my practice is somatic (body-based), practical, and experiential. We'll build a bridge between mismatched desire, expand sexual potential, practice honest communication and increase satisfaction for everyone involved.

Working with Women and Female-Identified Folks

Let’s get to the heart of your truth and uncover what’s ready to shift. Together, we’ll explore the patterns shaped by relationships, social norms, and life experiences that may be holding you back. Through this process, we’ll craft a map to guide you toward the life and relationships you desire.

This work invites a reconnection to your body’s innate wisdom, unlocking pleasure, clarity, and purpose. You’ll gain tools to embody authentic, confident communication and relational skills that support growth in every aspect of your life—be it love, work, or self-expression.

I’m here to support and encourage your journey into shame-free sexual ecstasy, calming the raging storms of emotions, and surrendering into the infinite bliss, still pool of inner knowing. All of you is welcome here. I honor your pace and will meet you at your growing edge.

I help bridge the divide.

Common focus areas include but are not limited to: Low Libido or Desire, Body Shame, Discovering Desires, Embodied Confidence, Receiving Nurturing, Rediscovering Sex, Inability to Orgasm, Reconnecting with Pleasure, Recovery After Surgery or Illness, Playful Dating & Relationship Coaching, Fear, Shame & Trauma Support, and Reclaiming Sexual Sovereignty.

Empowering Authentic Connections for Men and Male-Identified Clients

Connection is the cornerstone of a fulfilling life, yet it often comes with challenges. Perhaps you long for the ease and energy of authentic, passionate relationships—or you’re ready to overcome barriers that stand in your way. My work focuses on equipping you with the tools to cultivate meaningful connections across all areas of your life.

In our sessions, we’ll address common concerns like performance anxiety, erectile difficulties, or fears around intimacy. Together, we’ll delve into underlying issues such as shame, trauma, or outdated societal expectations, using proven methods tailored to your unique experience. Whether you’re seeking to expand your pleasure, navigate “tricky turn-ons,” or reconnect with yourself after surgery or illness, this is a space for growth and empowerment.

Grounded in the latest insights from relational neuroscience and somatic practices, our work is about transforming limiting beliefs into opportunities for joy and presence. By weaving conscious exploration with practical strategies, you’ll learn to engage with others—and yourself—with greater authenticity, trust, and depth.
