never fear aftercare

Therapeutic Kink

I welcome you to my somatic sanctuary if you simply want to experience pleasure, fun, relaxation, and learning. 

However, my passion is particularly piqued in working with you if are seeking deeper emotional self-exploration & healing. 

As someone with a background in counseling psychology, I’m interested in helping people understand where feelings come from, especially when it comes to desires, kinks, or fetishes.  I am part of a small subset of people who both went to a very rigorous graduate-level point in studies of psychology & trauma-release, while also being willing to apply these skills within the sphere of kink & BDSM.

I deeply track & train in trauma-informed work because of my own personal healing journey in settling traumas through somatic methodologies.  In my studies of how we return to wholeness after trauma, I have learned that working with the body is essential. For some people, talk therapy is enough to allow for functioning, but in my own experience, we often keep repeating negative patterns even though we cognitively understand them {this coming from someone who went to graduate school to meta analyze their own mind}. At heart, trauma is stored in the body, and only through the body can we rewrite the physical and emotional patterns. 

While I am clear that I am not your psychotherapist and this is not psychotherapy, I do believe that kink & BDSM can still have tremendous therapeutic benefits.

That is what kink has been for me: an unfathomably deep gift of experiential self-knowledge that has helped me heal in a way no other modality has. 

In our sessions, you will feel listened to, understood, respected, cared for, intimate, and vulnerable. I am here to be your erotic ally, helping you hone, discover and understand your desires, where they come from, and how you can discover dilated delight in your daily life.

I aim to create a space where you have permission to drop into exploring yourself with physical & emotional guidance & support. A witness to the wild, an erotic guardian angel presence who is attentive & available to assist you with your exploration & personal growth via increasing sensitivity. 

In my own experiential and academic research, I’ve discovered how breathing, vibration, pressure, and impact play effect the autonomic nervous system (ANS) & the Vagus nerve. In most people, the ANS operates unconsciously, and by learning how to precisely access and modify its state of arousal (or vigilance), we can go into deep states of relaxation & trance where we can write new narratives for the stories that no longer serve and promote new patterns in our lives.

Utilizing my weight, leverage, torque, twisting, & my sizable strength, we create deep states of surrender in you that activate the parasympathetic nervous system. The science behind this is in the parallels between birth and being a responsive human gravity blanket, with the warm body weight mimicking the soothing surrounding swaddled pressure of the womb & early states of emerging from the canal. This pressured presence methodology is at the heart of my Bodywork Domming and is a direct body hack into a relaxed ‘rest & digest’ parasympathetic state.

Through stress, restriction over our natural need for movement variety, and our over-sedentary default modern lifestyle, most people are so wired, tight, and closed to pleasurable sensation that their body becomes addicted to alteration to one of the few socially sanctioned highs – the neuro-cocktail of fight-or-flight hormones. If this is the case for you, there is no other way of getting you into a state of complete submission then acting directly on your body and physically communicating that you are safe to surrender.

Thus, together, we decompress your mind by compressing your body.  

As you very well may have experienced, volumes of words can always accumulate attempting to describe the intelligence of body language, which with greater simplicity, speaks so much more. The genius of my methodology is in compassionate corporeal communication, and I cannot wait to share my healing gifts with you, if you so desire.
