Somatic Intimacy Sessions

Somatic Intimacy

1:1 sessions

Somatic intimacy sessions are a journey of softening into our fullness, allowing space to be with what is and the metamorphosis that follows. 'Soma' means the wholeness of an organism: body, mind, spirit and all that has shaped them. Intimacy = 'into me I see'.  Somatic intimacy teaches us that everything is welcome, that you are your greatest teacher and know yourself best.

 

As a somatic therapist, educator and sexologist in training, I am here to hold a space for you to slowly open into all that you are, I am here to remind you that your body knows the answer and I am here to support you on your journey into eros, the creative, pulsing life force that is far beyond 'sex'. I am deeply passionate about co-creating a space together so we can explore how pleasure and empowerment wants to bloom in your life. I believe somatic intimacy is a portal into the landscapes of our bodies, into deeper connection with nature and human kin, into peace, into pleasure and into collective liberation. These sessions are not just about sensuality and sexuality however, they are a space to deepen your intimacy with yourself and body in whatever way feels good for you.

​

I am deeply rooted in this 'work', and feel it is my way of being. I have experienced profound sexual abuse, chronic illnesses, serve mental health challenges and near death experiences. The spaces and practices I offer now are ones that saved my life. The offerings I share to you are the ones that led me out of the dark abyss into the wondrous life I now live. I am here to support you my love, you are not alone, together we can learn what it truly means to be human.

 

You may resonate with what I offer if you:

​​

  • Are a deep human being, who longs to swim into the underwater caverns of your body and explore all the truthful wisdom that lives there

  • Struggle to ‘participate’ in the systems of society, and yearn for a life and relationships that are more aligned with your body and truth

  • Feel the call from within, to journey towards the life you long to live

  • Want to delve into your pleasure, intimacy, sensuality, sexuality and eros

  • Are a survivor of sexual trauma, and want support, from someone who deeply innerstands, in being with those wounds and softly reclaiming your empowerment and pleasure

  • Are a part of queer, neurodivergent communities, and yet maybe feel stifled by labels and want to live by your own truth and creative expression 

  • Want to nurture and cultivate more play and curiosity in your life

  • Are deeply devoted to (or yearn to be) land, nature, Earth, Spirit, kin and want to deepen this connection

​

Together we will co-create a space where you can:
 

  • Slow to the pace of trust, and move with the pace of your body

  • Softly and slowly return into your body and the earth

  • Reconnect with your inner knowing

  • Learn skills and practices to attune to and soothe your nervous system

  • Slowly replace and outdated beliefs, relational and nervous system patterns, for new fulfilling ones

  • Release charges that have been stored in your body, and create more spaciousness

  • Nourish a deeper connection to your inner intimacy, pleasure, playfulness, sensuality, menstrual cycle/natural rhythms

  • Develop confidence in your self expression, communication and reception of needs, boundaries, limits, consent and desires

  • Explore how to relate to those you love from more truthful, heartfelt and womb held place and expand your capacity for connection and intimacy

  • Build emotional and erotic fluency and inner resilience

​​​

Some gentle reminders:

​

  • You are not too much

  • You are not too little

  • You don’t need to know exactly what you want from the session, we can discover this together

  • You don’t need any prior experience with embodiment or somatic work

  • You don’t need to have it all figured out or be “healed” (nobody is hehe!) 

  • You don't need to share anything you don't want to

  • You don't need to have a 'sexual' relationship to yourself or others

  • You don’t need to be “spiritual" or "ready enough”

​

I offer sessions on a sliding scale of £50-£80. If you truly do not have the funds for this please, reach out about your financial needs or one of my free therapy places.

​​

*co-explorer is the word I like to use instead of 'client'. This is because it aligns to my intentions of co-creating space, sessions and learning, as well as moving away from the clinicalness and power dynamics infused within a lot of therapy modalities.

"I experience Matilda's presence the way I experience my safe space in nature. It feels lush and abundant, and I want to lie there - soaking in the warmth of the sun on a bed of moss - forever. Her presence is not only grounding and calm, but their words also arrived exactly when I needed them, each time landing softly in my body and being. The body scan she guided me through was the simplest yet most profound I've ever experienced. Matilda has shown me that less is more, that simplicity can be a guiding light in every practice."
