My story

Raised  with the bare minimum of education around sexuality & in a family with a  buried intimacy, I wasn't educated to know what I wanted  but only  what others wanted of me. 
Having a body that is not really allowed to want and to voice that wanting,  a downward spiral into dysfunctional ways of connecting with my body and others was for a long time the  reality I identified with.
 
The close to 7 years I have spent in psychotherapy facilitated for me an optimistic outlook of life but I eventually realized that my healing progress was greatly facilitated by my somatic, embodied practices of  martial arts first, and then Argentinian tango.
 
I practiced relating, belonging, testing my boundaries first by punching furiously, bleeding and bruising my body  and then by embracing another and letting them embrace me back.
 
My relationship with my wants, my most authentic self grew but there was still some missing piece. I could see how my patterns  of relating were still  repeating and my journey led to Somatic sexology, a modality that merges  the field of somatics, neuroscience, coaching and sexology.
 
Pioneering and deeply transformative, somatic sex education & sexological bodywork  is my purpose and passion. 
I have found a way back to my body and my most authentic desires through its practices,  in a way that my whole body joins in and integrates the experience.

I now have a voice and I want to empower others to find their own unique expression.
 
Pleasure and embodied connection is a possibility for you!
