My Expertise

My coaching, workshops, and group programs for women and couples are grounded in more than a decade of trauma-informed, therapeutic training and clinical experience working with women and couples internationally.

 

I hold a Masters degree in Somatic Psychology, certification in somatic sexology, advanced experience in evidence-based somatic modalities, as well as extensive training in the sacred arts of the priestess path, embodied intimacy work, yoga and bodywork.

​

I offer personalized guidance in a compassionate, judgment-free space for women and couples of all ages, stages, and identities seeking to deepen their experience of intimacy, erotic embodiment, and soul connection.

What we Awaken Together...

​

· Embodied safety, presence and pleasure

· Emotional and erotic connection in relationship  

· Soulful clarity and purpose​

​

Cornerstones of our work

Embodied presence is the foundation for deep pleasure and love.

Sexuality

Eroticism is about sex, and much more. We explore emotional, physical, relational and spiritual dimensions of your erotic being, reclaiming your sexuality as a source of creativity, power and nourishment. 

​

Relationship

Our work is deeply relational. Whether you come in 1:1 or as a couple, we demystify dynamics, unpack negative cycles and create new patterns of intimacy, attachment, and communication in session.

​​​

Embodiment

Through mind-body awareness, therapeutic touch, movement, breath work, and emotional processing, you reconnect directly with your nervous system, learn to feel more present, aware and safe in your body.​

Mentorship in the online space

After years of working with clients online, I’ve witnessed how transformative somatic and intimacy work can be, no matter the distance.

Working online offers unique advantages:

​

Comfort: Engage in deeply personal work from the privacy of your own space, facilitating intimacy during and after sessions.


Flexibility: We meet wherever you are in the world, with no commute, saving time and energy.


Depth: Somatic work is fully possible online—whether solo or with your partner, I guide you through deep embodied practices.
