Somatic Sex Education & Sexological Bodywork

​

Somatic sex education is a body-based modality to nurture, deepen or awaken the embodied self. Somatic sex educators who are trained and certified Sexological Bodyworkers offer a variety of educational modalities including hands-on bodywork, coaching and consultation.

 

We hold the belief that sexual health and erotic education are basic human rights.

 

Somatic sex education sessions assist students in developing presence within their body, opening to their interior awareness, and learning how the body can feel more alive. I use a variety of instructive modalities including breathwork, boundary setting and consent exercises, and trauma-informed touch for scar tissue palpitation, pelvic floor release, and anatomy mapping for sensitivity and pleasure.

 

These sessions are not clinical; rather it’s about education. Referrals are provided for physical and mental health practitioners.

 

All sessions adhere to the code of professional conduct and ethics outlined by the Association of Certified Sexological Bodyworkers. 

​

Common reasons that individuals or couples seek somatic sex education:

- Exploring consent, boundaries and communication in intimate relationships

- Mapping the anatomy of arousal

- Preparing for and integrating ecstatic birth experiences

- Reorienting to pleasure post-surgery, postpartum, post menopause

- Supporting the healing journey around sexual trauma

 

Somatic sex education is not a sexual service and practitioners do not act as surrogate partners. We remain clothed and the touching in our sessions is one-directional from practitioner to client. Students who want to learn interpersonal skills are welcome to bring their partners.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

What can I expect from a session?

While each somatic sex education session is unique and informed by a client’s history and goals, bodywork sessions typically include:

• Intake and intention: identifying goals for working together

• Agreement and consent: creating a safe container, identifying boundaries and building trust

• Breath, movement, touch: utilizing breathwork and client-directed touch to support up or down regulation of the nervous system and bring awareness to the body’s innate wisdom

• Quiet integration and reflection: allowing learning experiences to be savored

• Home practice: continuing opportunities for somatic learning

​

Who is it for?

Somatic sex education is for all bodies over 18 years of age, all gender identities and expressions, and all sexual identities and orientations. My practice predominately serves women including cisgender and trans women and nonbinary people assigned female at birth. My sessions offer an approach that is sex-positive, kink-aware, queer-friendly, and poly-normative.
