Hello Loves. I have a few tickets left for the Cuddle Party on the 17th!

If you've been curious about it, this is going to be the last one till March or April. I'd love to have you there!

Come for the cuddles, stay for the laughter. Cuddle Party is connection at its coziest.

How do you know when to say no?

Were you were told that saying yes keeps the peace, even when it costs you comfort? What if honoring your comfort is the first step to real connection?

What happens when we stop believing other peolple's comfort is our responsibility?

Try noticing one small moment today when you realized someone else was uncomfortable. What does it feel like? What was your impulse? What did you believe could happen if you didn't make it better?

Boundaries are not barriers. They are bridges.

Ever felt uneasy saying 'no' or unsure how to ask for what you need? Many of us were never taught how to set or honor boundaries, especially around touch and connection. The result? Misunderstandings, discomfort, and self abandonment. This happens at work, at home, and with our friends.

In my practice, I see firsthand how learning to communicate boundaries and consent transforms relationships. It’s not just about avoiding conflict. It’s about building trust, safety, and genuine connection.

Curious what clear, actionable boundaries look like in real life? Let’s talk. I offer individual sessions (both in person and online) and group workshops designed to help you practice these skills in a supportive, affirming environment.

Ever wonder how safe touch can heal?

A recent client shared how their first cuddle therapy session offered a sense of calm they hadn’t felt in years. So many of my clients are finally finding a place to breathe, feel seen, and remember they’re not alone.

It’s incredible what happens when we create space for connection and consent. Every story is unique, and every journey matters.

Do you ever think “how dare they” what someone is charging?

When you see someone has set a price that reflects how much they value what they are putting into the world, and you’re reaction is this ^^^ I think you have more inner work to do.

Have you ever wondered what would make a Cuddle Therapist turn down a client? It may not always be as scandalous as you think

Another incredible AASECT on the books. I loved spending time with my Conference Family and meeting incredible new friends. Most of all, I loved getting to keep doing and talking about the work I find most valuable in the whole world and absolutely love doing! Touch practitioners are the missing piece in the mental health care and support world! Closing that gap couldn't be more important and I love every moment I spend toward that end!!!

Had a fantastic presentation at the decision 39 psychoanalytic conference! Expanding the clinical world to include the world of touch practitioners is powerful! It was standing room only in there!

Loved representing and with my colleagues Brandon and Amy representing and

Huge thanks to Michelle and Lou for coming and supporting in all the ways!
