Bodyworker & Intimacy Coach
Is your masturbation routine boring, habitual and unsatisfying? Coaching is a process that you commit to that leads to change in your experience and relationship to a subject or situation. If you want to make changes to your masturbation habits read my guide to masturbation coaching sessions.
Whether you’re single & dating, have been in a relationship for 5 minutes, 5 years or 5 decades, you’ve probably got some fairly ingrained ‘go to’ patterns for sex and intimacy: tried and tested ways of connecting that you feel comfortable with or that you know both you and your partner enjoy.

I have tried various things over the years to try and reduce the effect of endometriosis on my body and my life. The first major improvements I experienced were through changes in my diet.

This unconscious conditioning around sex sometimes means that, as adults, it’s difficult to relax and explore pleasure and affection in an open and vocal way.
