Ah, Love! That heart-stopping, heart-breaking, heart-opening adventure!
The ability to love is universal. Yes, even you! Love is its own mystery. It simply is, without conditions. Dont bother arguing with it.
Relationship, however, is another story altogether. Relationship is a choice we make. A choice based on a myriad reasons, some we are aware of and some we are not. Relationship is highly conditional that is, there are certain conditions that enable you to get acquainted and enjoy each other, some conditions that would strain it, and other conditions which would end it immediately. This is true of all relationships - family, friends, co-workers, lovers and spouses, anyone.
In intimacy coaching, I help you notice what those conditions are for you. Why? Because even though love is not conditional, you can certainly create conditions in which it is most likely to flourish!
In intimacy coaching, I help you develop the awareness (Wow, I didnt know I felt that way!) and skills (Oh, so thats how you do it!) that develop and support your ability to reach deeper states of intimacy in your relationships of choice.
This awareness and skill is best accessed as part of your own body wisdom. The experiences I guide you through help you discover and overcome your hidden fears, and discover and meet your hidden (and not so hidden) desires. The skills I teach range from simple words to sensual touch to deep erotic states. They are practical, easy to learn, and enjoyable along the way!
Among other things, intimacy depends on these strong personal boundaries, a willingness to be vulnerable, and your choice to take responsibility for your own experience. As you develop these abilities, your capacity to sustain intimacy will naturally grow.
Though its helpful to receive coaching as a couple, you may also receive your coaching alone and take it home to share with your loved one.
Who benefits from coaching?
-
Couples seeking greater enjoyment or more erotic spark
-
New lovers who know the value of starting out with clear communication
-
Singles seeking a listening ear for their questions
-
Couples trying to balance differing levels of desire
-
Singles ready for ideas in finding, attracting and getting acquainted with a partner
-
Couples considering or exploring intimacy with others, such as swinging, polyamory, or any of the myriad other possible love arrangements
-
Your teenagers and their friends, seeking realistic and healthy information about themselves and their interests, from someone who respects them and is not their mom or dad! (Of course, there are special considerations in meeting with minors. Ask us.)
-
Intimacy has many forms and stages finding and attracting a potential partner, getting acquainted, exploring closeness and sexuality, making various agreements, deeply committing to life partnerships, and exploring alternatives together or apart. Coaching is helpful for all of these!
How does it work?
Unlike traditional coaching, which involves mostly words, our intimacy coaching includes experiences that help you embody your learning. You get the listening, thinking and talking of conventional coaching, AND you get energetic body experience in the issues you are exploring.
Coaching requires a commitment on your part. Youll need to clarify your intentions and expectations. Dont worry, I help you define that! I will be asking questions that help you find your strengths, challenges, goals, and strategies. Then we create a plan to get you where you want to go.
Ideally, coaching includes a combination of studio sessions and phone consultations. Once we meet, you may choose a package program or we can custom create one to meet your needs.
For those living elsewhere, we can work by phone, without studio sessions, or with sessions during your visits here. Heck, I have even been known to travel!

"Betty worked with me extensively after I attended a Body Electric workshop and helped me to integrate what I had learned. She helped me explore and experience a level of my sexuality that I had never seen or felt before. She also facilitated several fantasy sessions, which unlocked many doors that had been locked for years by parental and societal conditioning that had taught me that my sexuality should not be expressed. This brought about tremendous healing for me. I highly recommend her gentle and heartful approach to such tender places." . . . . . . M--- |
