Personal Coaching

You want to experience more pleasure and connection in your body, but you are afraid to let go of the safety and comfort you have cultivated in numbness and disassociation: your buffers to pain and hidden triggers. 

The idea of more embodied pleasure feels like it would rely on somehow getting a body that didn’t keep score, or at least some magical clearing of the scoreboard so far.

 Diving into the depths of your body’s capacity to feel scares you, you worry that going near the shore will see you swept up into a giant swell. 

What if you had a buddy to accompany & support you in this work? 

Someone with:

  • training and skills in Intimacy Education & somatics 
  • understanding of the nervous system & anatomy of arousal
  • tools & practices for exploring and imagining beyond what seems possible
  • personal lived experiences of navigating big transitions 

What if you could have hands-on help in figuring out what pleasure can feel like in your body? What if that support person understood that feeling more, can mean feeling more pain, and is prepared to work at a pace that tends that?

What if you could have embodied integration assistance from someone who understands nuances of circumstances and isn’t motivated by a spiritual bypassing “positive vibes only” approach?

What if you could get into vulnerable explorations of things like

  • social transition 
  • surgery 
  • hormones 
  • scar care 
  • gender open parenting
  • Trans pregnancy
  • Polyamoury
  • kink
  • neurodivergence
  • harm reduction
  • disability
  • partner-caregiving or 
  • sexuality after the death of a partner 

with someone who’s lived their own first hand and accompanied many others through these sorts of big transitions?

Changing Perspective

Kori offered me a very customized session, mixing somatic tools, parts work and theater-inspired exercises to help me have a non-judgmental relationship with my cannabis use. I especially appreciated their openness to build a session with me where I could integrate my learning while smoking.
Since our session, I notice that my inner critic is calmer and less harsh, and I have a better understanding of the underlying beliefs that led me to be so critical. Kori is a reference in harm reduction, gender affirmation and compassionate witness.

Valuable Experience

“I felt relaxed and open to the experience, allowing myself to fully engage with the sensations and emotions that arose. The communication beforehand was clear, and during the massage, I appreciated how Kori checked in with me about my comfort and needs. I felt supported throughout and was able to express what I wanted in the experience. The space they curated was peaceful and calming, and I felt my body and needs were respected. The most impactful part for me wasn’t about techniques exactly, but the opportunity to practice letting go of control and allowing myself to explore different desires without judgment or force. Kori facilitated this beautifully, making it a truly valuable experience.”
