As someone in training to become a psychotherapist, I know that healing is not about suppressing or fixing the parts of ourselves that were unloved in childhood. Rather, it’s about learning to love these parts and to express them freely. I firmly believe that the world would be a better place if each of us felt free to embody their whole authentic self — including the parts that society may consider “flawed” or “weird.”

I have been a cuddle practitioner for 7 years. As such, I have mastered the ability to create a judgment-free safe space for you to unapologetically be yourself. It’s only natural to feel vulnerable when expressing a part of ourselves that we have been suppressing for a while. The need for physical touch can be one such part. This is understandable given that we live in a culture that idolizes self-sufficiency and frowns upon neediness. A cuddle session with me is an opportunity to unlearn the shame around neediness and to learn how to ask for exactly what you want. You can rest assured that I will only say Yes to what I would be genuinely happy to do and will say No to anything I wouldn’t feel 100% comfortable doing.

I warmly welcome clients of any and all orientations and gender identities.

Here is an example of the kind of feedback I receive from my clients:

“The session yesterday was really wonderful. I already have one friend who is super intrigued and may try it out himself. In reflecting on the experience I realized that you very effectively put me at ease. It was a really comfortable and really nice hour. I appreciated both the consent-driven touch and our conversation. Your openness was very much appreciated. Thank you for being willing to share with me.” — B.L.
