My tantra therapy bodywork and conscious kink practice welcomes women in all stages of life. Although I mostly work one on one with women, couples and individual men are welcome as well. With men, my work is mostly centered around improving sexual function after treatment for prostate issues.
Dear soul, thank you for having an intention to take the time to care for yourself in a profound way. I would be honored to be your guide.

Sensual Massage/Tantra Therapy Bodywork for Women
Slow and intentional sensual strokes proceeding to mindful sensual touch, you practice cultivating sexual energy in a way you may never have felt before—truly awakening. Many people have strong energetic and emotional releases during this work. Even orgasm-challenged women often find their pleasure with this conscious sacred work. And women who are in touch with their pleasure can find deeper and more sustained multiple orgasms by learning to be more embodied, patient, and self-accepting.
Conscious Kink/BDSM
In my practice I have found that the experience of sensation outside what is traditionally considered “pleasurable” can open your body and mind for pleasure beyond anything you’ve experienced before. Blending the energy moving breathing techniques and sensual practices from Tantra traditions with sensation play borrowed from conscious kink, together we will discover new pleasure pathways. Transcendent ecstatic states can be experienced.
- Sensation play
- Impact play
- Bondage and restraints
- Body worship rituals (yours or mine)
- Luxurious and deeply nourishing aftercare
About Me
After retiring from being a full-time music professional (singer/songwriter/recording artist), I became a software architect and engineer. This work, while creative and challenging, lacks the profound human connection I crave. After some personal and health challenges, I turned to Bhakti Yoga, Reiki, and discovered the incredible world of sacred sexuality. Studying men’s sexual mastery with Layla Martin helped me recover full function and beyond after a surgery and opened my eyes to the kind of sexual intimacy that was possible. I found mentors like Barbara Carrellas, Francesca Gentille, and Buddhi Dana who taught me about the anatomy of pleasure, the physical, psychological, and energetic components. I have a Certificate of Mastery from Urban Tantra Professional Training and have studied sacred sexuality in countless other trainings and professional workshops, as well. Working with clients to help them get in touch with lost parts of themselves, find their pleasure, and be fully alive has been the most fulfilling experience of my life.
Sessions
How would you like to feel? How would you like to experience pleasure in your body? Do you feel like access to pleasure is being blocked somewhere by emotions buried deep in your tissues? What do you want to learn about yourself? As pleasure scientists, we’ll explore these questions together.
All sessions start with a conversation about desires, boundaries, and what is alive in you in the moment. From that conversation we will co-create a sacred space for you to explore your own unique erotic nature and sexual intelligence. You will feel seen, heard, and deeply cared for. The container we build together will help you feel safe to be vulnerable and to surrender, allowing you to explore your capacity for pleasure, sensation, and healing in a profound way. Together we will create an experience that will serve your deepest needs, desires, and blocks. Let go. Let me take care of you in a meaningful way for a while.
Sessions may include tantra bodywork, sensual touch, sensation explorations, light impact play, intimacy, sexuality, tantric shamanic somatic healing, or a combination of these modalities tuned to your desires.
Consent, boundaries, safety, and clear communication are integral to all sessions. Agreements will be made before each session on what your goals are and what feels comfortable. Consent can be withdrawn at any time for any reason. You will always be in control.
