Somatic Intimacy Coaching

How it supports you

Listening, feeling and recognising what your body is saying is the first step to better intimacy.

Understanding your somatic (body) signals strengthens self-awareness and self-trust.

The practices we explore enable you to live more in tune with what your body actually wants and truly desires.

No more people pleasing or ignoring your needs

This is deep work, it’s sensitive and important.

One of the many empowering elements of this body-based coaching is the self-agency that develops. This process fosters radical acceptance for what is and allows insights to bloom from the client’s own self expression.

We go at your pace and you are always in choice with what happens.

I’m known for creating a profoundly safe space for my clients which is so important when working with intimacy.

  • Session Structure

    We co-create the container which holds the session. I, as the practitioner, am responsible for maintaining and organising the session. I will offer a choice of three practices based on your intention. You will be choosing the practice that feels most aligned for your needs. I will never do more than you ask but I may do less. I will be providing you with options to choose from based on your learning intention.

    These are the components of the session structure. Each session is unique. I will be attuning to what you need on the day.

  • REEF™ Relational Erotic & Emotional
    Fluency Coaching was developed by Katie Sarra and Phoebe Garland and has its foundations in Mindfulness, Sexological Bodywork®, Body Poem™, Wheel of consent® and Right Use Of Power® and Affective Relational Neuroscience teachings and practices.

  • The coaching model I offer is educational in nature rather than therapeutic. My role is to support and facilitate your learning process, not to provide treatment or a set menu of experiences. You are the expert of your own felt experience, and all sessions are client-led, guided by your own insights and pace.

    We begin with building the micro-skills of embodiment practices before moving into more erotic practices.

    Meaningful transformation arises through consistent somatic practice, therefore, your home practice between sessions is an essential and integral part of your journey.

  • Online sessions

    • I recommend you use a computer for the session so that you can have your hands free and be more relaxed.

    • You will need a space that is private, quiet and comfortable with excellent internet connection.

  • I adhere to The Relational Harmony Institute Code of Ethics. You can read more about them here. I receive regular professional supervision as part of my training. 

    At the end of each session I will ask you what worked well and what could have made the session better.
