Overview
Become empowered. Get informed. Live in joy!
Welcome, and thank you for visiting!I'm an embodied life coach, helping clients improve their lives and achieve their goals.I see sexuality as more than just physical—it’s about who we are, how we interact with ourselves and others, and how we express ourselves in the world.My focus is on embodiment, which means connecting with both the wisdom of our bodies and minds.My own life experiences have shaped the work I do today. I continually learn and share what has helped me live a better life.Thanks again for stopping by!
Overview / Ecstatic Living
What is ecstatic living?
Embodied life coaching is about learning how to create a deep, natural sense of fulfillment and joy in everyday life. When you live ecstatically, you focus on being awake and aware, you live with intention, and you make space for the kind of experiences that light you up, both inside and out.
It helps you feel vibrant, joyful, and deeply alive.
It gets you more in tune with your body, emotions, & the world.
It frees you to feel more present and in gratitude, with awe, and in connection.
Service benefits
What are the benefits of embodied life coaching?
Embodied life coaching can help you to better understand your sexuality, including who you are, who and what you are attracted to, and how you express yourself. In short, embodied life coaching can help you to bring greater clarity of purpose to your life.
benefits / exploration
Expand your sexuality competency.
Explore how your sexuality connects to different parts of your life, such as your identity, interests, and attractions. Understand how it affects your relationships, helps build confidence, and guides you in setting boundaries. Learn to live more authentically, communicate consent, express your desires, and navigate interactions in your relationships.
Here are some options:
Learn about sexual health and wellness practices.
Reduce your fear of HIV.
Understand STI treatment and prevention options.
Explore your gender identity and discover who you are.
Reflect on your sexual orientation and who you’re attracted to.
Reframe your kinks and fetishes in a positive way.
Learn how to create safe and enjoyable experiences with your partner(s).
Get advice on toys, resources, and supportive communities.
Consider that:
Our conversations are confidential.
I provide clear information and respect your choices.
Our sessions are collaborative, and I’m always honest.
I create a safe space for you to share things you might not elsewhere.
benefits / safe, authentic, & confidential
Connect in safety, confidentiality, and authenticity.
When we work together, we create a process that respects you and your choices. Your sessions are confidential, and you can share as much as you feel comfortable with.
benefits / participate anywhere
Engage in your sessions from anywhere.
With me, you can schedule sessions whenever and however works best for you. Choose what’s most convenient—via Zoom, phone, or in person if you’re in south central Texas.
Sessions can be by video/audio (preferred), phone, or in person if possible.
I offer a flexible schedule to fit your availability.
If you’re facing a challenge, I can usually arrange a session within 24-48 hours.
coaching / intro
Coaching services
I offer sessions tailored to your needs, including Partner Sex & Relationship Coaching, One-on-One Intimacy Coaching, Pre-Intimacy Coaching, Body Confidence (Embodied Empowerment), and Embracing Intimacy.
Coaching / Couples
Coaching for couples & partners
You can have relationships that meet your needs, where you give and receive confidence, compassion, presence, and care. I work with couples or multi-partner relationships of all genders, sexual orientations, and expressions.
Here are a sampling of things we can work on:
- Address challenges or enhance experiences.
- Negotiate agreements.
- Communicate clearly and thoroughly.
- Successfully engage in different relationship types (poly, triad, etc.).
Coaching / individuals
Coaching for individuals
In relationships, it can be hard to maintain or deepen your connection with your partner(s). In one-on-one sessions, I can help you understand your situation, explore options, and address issues in your relationship dynamics.
Among the topics we can explore:
Build skills for a stronger relationship foundation.
Learn about sexual health and wellness.
Explore your gender, sexual orientation, kinks, and interests.
Embrace your sexuality as a key part of living a joyful life.
coaching / pre-intimacy
Pre-intimacy coaching
Many clients want to build skills and knowledge before starting a relationship. Pre-intimacy coaching helps you get ready by guiding you on how to navigate the sometimes intimidating world of modern relationships.
Some options to explore include:
Learn that a "healthy we" starts with a "healthy me."
Get answers to your fears and concerns.
Move beyond fantasy and embrace relationship realities.
Negotiate intimate interactions to get what you want.
Find additional resources.
coaching / embodied confidence
Embodied confidence
Do you love your body? If you're feeling uncomfortable in your own skin, it can create a barrier to intimacy and connection with others. How you feel about your body really matters—it’s the foundation for building confidence and self-love. I work with people to transform their relationship with their bodies, helping them feel empowered, comfortable, and connected. Whether you're just starting to embrace your body or looking to deepen that connection, I offer creative ways to shift your mindset and open the door to more self-acceptance and intimacy.
Embrace all parts of your body.
Understand the difference between body health and appearance. Deepen your understanding of embodiment.
Practice self-acceptance and build greater self-love.
Coaching / Intimacy
Is intimacy coaching right for you?
Talking about sexuality, intimacy, and vulnerability can be uncomfortable. The stigma around these topics makes problems worse, like rising STI rates, unplanned pregnancies, relationship conflicts, unhealthy behaviors, and even assault, all while people have inaccurate or biased information about sexuality.Embodied life coaching can help address these issues.

From your coach
“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.Living never wore one out so much as the effort not to live.”- Anaïs Nin, Writer & Diarist

Method
Follow a method to cultivate true intimacy.
I use an embodied life coaching approach to create a safe space for vulnerability and authenticity, combining mind and body in our sessions to focus on your needs.
Method / Brave Space
We create brave space for your sessions...
I encourage clients to be authentic, embrace vulnerability, and take thoughtful risks to grow their knowledge and skills. I provide a safe space through confidentiality, collaborate in co-creating sessions, and offer support between sessions when "after-care" is needed.
Learn how your body communicates.
Discover body-based practices for future use.
Understand how combining embodied knowledge with cognitive knowledge can give you an advantage.
Method / Mind and Body
We work with mind & body...
You may have already felt embodied knowledge, like a "gut instinct" or "sixth sense." In our sessions, I help clients recognize and understand these feelings, and show how they can use them to make better decisions and gain clearer perspective.
Commitment to Care
My commitment to your care
Use this page to locate the information you need. If you cannot find what you are looking for, please send me your question.
My role is to ensure clear communication with you. My main job is to create a safe space for you, with your well-being as my top priority.
I practice informed consent. I will explain the goals and boundaries of our work together so you can make informed choices.
Our relationship is temporary, limited to the time we spend together in sessions.
I recognize my limits. I will only use methods I’m trained in. If you need something outside my expertise, I will refer you to someone who can help. If I have qualifications beyond my main role, I will prioritize my core practice. However, if we agree, I may use additional skills within my expertise for your benefit.
If a situation requires another professional (like a mental health or medical provider), I will take appropriate action to ensure your well-being. This may include calling emergency services if needed.
My responsibility for your welfare lasts until we both agree to end it, or either of us decides to stop.
Your information is confidential. I won’t share anything about you without your permission, except in these cases:
If there’s an immediate risk to you or others, and I need to notify the right professionals or authorities.
If I need to consult with other professionals, with your consent, or in life-threatening emergencies.
For research, where your identity is kept anonymous to protect your privacy.
I am responsible for preventing the spread of infections or illness.
To be effective in my work, I need to maintain a healthy personal life. This includes having fulfilling relationships outside of work, and ensuring I:
Stay current with ongoing education.
Seek help for personal issues when needed.
Consult with peers for support on cases when necessary.
