Holistic Sex and Intimacy Counselling

08/27/2025

I am seeing more and more seniors (+65) seek out my S*x and Intimacy Counseling practice. Some express a desire to continue or resume an active s*x life after losing a long term partner and others want to know what else they can experience in the realms of pleasure, connection and exploration. Some talk about how they adapt positions and modify their ideas of what s*x means because of certain physical restrictions. Others mention the connection between s*xual energy and life energy and how they can feel this energy throughout the day.

Recently, a man in his 70's told me how he got picked up by a woman in her 80's and they had great s*x! high five to him!
Hearing these stories excites me to no end, reminds me that vitality is not skin deep and makes me wish there were more spaces for all ages of people to talk, ask questions and share about s*x and all that surrounds it.

Registration for the Body Awakening Online Course for individuals and couples, as well as the Practitioner training is now open! The creation of this course has been a labor of love for me and I'm so excited to share it.

Body Awakening is a beautiful practice for individuals and couples wanting to learn more about their body, understand what gets in the way of their optimal s*xual functioning, increase their capacity for pleasure and connect with self and others in a new and meaningful way. For practitioners there is nothing out there quite like this and the demand for Body Awakening - especially for men experiencing ED and PE is too great for me alone. I'm really hoping to get more practitioners trained in this to lighten my load!

"Natasha has developed a new sensate-focus modality that offers individuals greater agency and understanding of their own arousal system, practitioners a beautiful new toolbox of skills to add to their business, and couples endless adventures in arousal and pleasure without the distraction of being hijacked by goals or performance. I cannot recommend Body Awakening and Natasha as a facilitator/teacher highly enough.” – Rahi Chun, Somatic S*xual Wholeness

“Body Awakening has been a revelation for me, personally and professionally. As a certified Somatic S*x Educator working with clients for over 10 years, I felt I had turned over every stone offering new insights into embodied erotic awareness, arousal edging, awakening pleasure, sensate-focus, and down-regulating the nervous system via touch. Body Awakening provided new lessons and somatic understanding in each of these realms at once.

I'm SUPER excited about my new offering for men! The idea came to me after helping my friend create her online dating profile. Seeing some of the men's profiles and messages to her, horrified me. I work with men every week who do hard work in intimacy to grow themselves, develop skills, become better partners and recognize their limitations. Seeing the really sad, boring profiles (and awful under the chin pics) made me wonder about the awesome guys underneath them that maybe don't know they're awesome. I love working with men and approach everything I do from a strength focused perspective - meaning you will leave this program recognizing your value and the value in the women you seek to date. Contact on my website if interested!

As I get ready to turn the page of my client log book for 2023, I'm reflecting on how much growth and learning this year has given me.

I was fortunate to support 916 clients - 488 women, 366 men and 62 non binary people this year. I started offering a piece of my heart through "Body Awakening" sessions which help clients learn to; identify what "yes" and "no" feel like in their body and communicate it, anchor to presence during intimacy so that they can feel MORE, relax into their body to allow for the natural function of arousal to happen, regulate with their breath and explore pleasure. I teach this through either touching clients myself or guiding couples in how to offer Body Awakening to each other. I facilitated my first week long "Intimacy Immersion" experience with a couple, completed level 3 of an Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model training, learned to "Love Another Way" in a course on boundaries and am currently training in Ge***al Dearmouring.

In 2024, I'm excited to go to California for hands on Ge***al Dearmouring training, expand my office space to include this as one of my services, offer couple's intimacy workshops facilitated by myself and my husband (saying that is also new for me in 2023!) and continue writing my book on - you guessed it - Intimacy!

As always, I'm in awe of the endless connections between mothering babies, and helping adults feel safe enough to tip toe into experiencing their limitless capacity for connection and pleasure. Thank you to everyone who allowed me to accompany them on their intimacy journey this year and I'm excited to keep learning and expanding with you all next year!
