About the event
Do you struggle with desire, pleasure, or feeling present during sex? Do you want to improve your intimacy but feel stuck or disconnected?
Pleasure isn’t just about sex—it’s about reclaiming joy, sensuality, and connection in ways that feel safe and fulfilling.
In this class, we’ll explore how trauma affects sexual and emotional intimacy, including its impact on arousal, orgasm, and overall enjoyment of sex.
