First as a non-monogamous educator and podcaster with my partner. In April 2021 I decided that I wanted to expand my knowledge surrounding sex education and enrolled in school to become a certified Somatic Sex Educator and Sexological Bodyworker. I have recently completed my fourth Core Course with my Institute and I am a certified "Like a Pro" graduate with the School of Consent. I am currently starting a waitlist to work with clients both online and in-person.

Trained as a relationship/intimacy coach with the Somatica® Institute before embarking on the path of Sexological Bodywork & Somatic Sex Education with the ISSSE where I'm currently completing my training. I hold trainings in performance hypnosis, doula training, lactation education, dominatrix work, business coaching, Hakomi Psycotherapy and psychedelic guidance/integration. I am currently enrolled in Ellen Heed's STREAM training (Scar Tissue Remediation Education and Management) with a focus on holistic pelvic care. My emphasis is on emerging from shame, increased choicefulness, pattern recognition, improved communication & boundary setting. I hold a space where my clients can safely and authentically show up in their bodies and minds, dark side and all, and be met there. The work I do is client-led, in service to stepping more into wholeness, happiness & eroticism. I place high value on my clients exploring the taboo, enjoying the freedom to discover various sensations, find empowerment outside of normative realms & lean in to playing with power dynamics. www.mysexandsensibility.com --- WORK WITH ME: https://www.sexedforthemodernbed.com/services https://mysexandsensibility.com/ --- SAY HI ON SOCIAL: Website: https://www.sexedforthemodernbed.com Twitter: twitter.com/sxuninterrupted Instagram: www.instagram.com/sexedforthemodernbed/ Facebook: www.facebook.com/sexuninterrupted/ YouTube: www.youtube.com/sexuninterrupted Music Credit: Shake - Anno Domini Beats (Theme Music) © SU Lifestyle Media Inc.
