MY WORK WITH WOMEN

Many women are confused and overwhelmed by the often contradictory messages they have received about how a woman is “supposed” to be.  It can be a fine line between “sexy” and “slutty,” “pure” and “prude,” “assertive” and “bossy.” In our society, women are viewed as the caregivers, expected to put their needs and desires to the side while they care for others.

This myriad of expectations can have a deep impact on a woman’s ability to prioritize, cultivate, and receive pleasure in her own life.

The shifts that happen in the body after a pregnancy or as a result of menopause can be an especially potent moment for women to reconnect with their body and explore how desire appears, as it will likely be different than before. 

 As a woman myself, I approach women clients as both a guide and a peer.  Much of our work together is somatic, attuning ourselves to whatever is present in the body, as it is, right now.  I guide us through movement and mindful touch exercises, communication practices, exploration of beliefs, and debunking myths through sex education.  Our time together is normalizing and affirming-- a reminder that you are not alone in your experience, that your identity as a sexual being is yours to make, and there is a way forward from here.

I am currently only seeing clients online. To learn more about what we can do in an online format and if it’s right for you, please read on.
