Somatic Sex Educator in North London N11. I work with women, men, and couples on sexual reconnection, trauma recovery, desire, and embodied intimacy. Body-led, trauma-informed sessions in person or online.
Philosophy
I'm a Certified Sexological Bodyworker (CSB), Somatic Sex Educator, and faculty member at the Somatic Sexology School, practising in North London N11.
I work with women, men, and couples who want to reconnect with their bodies, reclaim pleasure, and deepen intimate connection. Whether you're navigating sexual disconnection, healing from trauma, exploring desire after a life transition, or simply wanting to feel more alive in your body — this work meets you where you are.
My approach is body-led, trauma-informed, and grounded in consent. Sessions might include breathwork, body awareness practices, nervous system regulation, boundary exploration, conscious touch education, and somatic practices — always tailored to your needs and at your pace. You remain fully in control at all times.
I specialise in:
- Sexual disconnection and low desire — reconnecting with your body's capacity for pleasure
- Trauma recovery — working with what the body holds, not requiring you to recount what happened
- Menopause and midlife transitions — discovering what desire and intimacy look like now
- Couples intimacy work — rebuilding connection through embodied practices
- Men's embodiment — moving beyond performance and into authentic presence
- Conscious tantric massage for women — a held, educational experience within clear professional boundaries
All sessions begin with a free 60-minute discovery call where we discuss your needs and find the best approach for your journey. No pressure, no obligation.
I'm bisexual and polyamorous, with extensive experience across the BDSM and kink communities. I welcome clients of all sexual orientations, gender identities, relationship configurations, cultural backgrounds, and abilities. Your whole self is welcome here.
My Story
I do this work because I know what it's like to feel completely disconnected from your body. To compromise so much in relationships that you lose yourself entirely. To use pain and sex to fill a void that nothing else can touch.
I spent years overriding my body's wisdom — in a long relationship where I gave up everything I wanted, then in the BDSM world where I used pain and casual encounters to feel something when I was so numb. I gained weight, couldn't look in the mirror, and believed I was unlovable.
Everything changed when I walked into a Tantra workshop. In one weekend, I came alive. I realised how dead my body had felt, how disconnected I'd been, how much I'd been pushing down. That weekend opened a door I'd been looking for my entire life.
I spent the next decade training — six years with Shakti Tantra, three years with Tara in London, certifications as a Sexological Bodyworker and Somatic Sex Educator. But more than the training, I did the hard work of healing. I learned to listen to my body. Really listen. Not override it. Not numb it. Not push through its "no" to get connection.
I set up Conscious Sexuality because I want others to experience this. By learning to listen to our bodies, trusting ourselves, and opening our hearts, we can create the relationships and the connection we want — not from pushing, but from coming home to ourselves.
I'm now in a deeply loving Tantric polyamorous relationship. I'm bisexual, with lived experience across the BDSM and kink communities. I understand these worlds from the inside, and I can support you wherever you are in your journey.
