yourself.

Trauma-informed somatic work for queer, trans, non-binary folks and women — where healing and pleasure are woven together on the same journey.

If your body is calling for more—more depth, healing, pleasure, and connection —welcome, you’re in the right place. 

You’re here because you’re carrying old wounds and find yourself grappling with challenging relationship patterns. You long to feel grounded, welcomed, and safe in your body through both the joyful and the hard times.

You seek relief from the physical and emotional tension of chronic stress and overwhelm, and want to reconnect with your body’s innate wisdom and capacity for creativity and pleasure.

I’m River, and I’m a somatic sex educator. I work with individuals and groups seeking heartfelt transformation to create profound and sustainable change. 

My approach is curated and highly attuned to each person’s needs. Each session is intentional and rooted in 13 years of training, study, and supporting folks with deep somatic healing.

If you’re ready to invest in a transformative journey that expands your capacity for pleasure, confidence, and connection, book a private phone consultation, and let’s explore the ways this work can support you
