• Helping You Reclaim Confidence, Pleasure, and Connection

    If you’re here, something hasn’t been working the way you want it to — and it’s affecting more than just sex. It’s affecting your confidence, your relationships, and how you feel about yourself. You may have already tried talk therapy or couples counseling, hoping they would help you feel more connected and less anxious. You may have read the books, listened to the podcasts, and told yourself all the right things. And yet, when the moment comes, your body still doesn’t respond the way you want it to. Desire isn’t where it used to be. Penetration may be painful. Orgasm feels elusive, unpredictable — or comes too fast. Erections feel unreliable. Pleasure feels distant. You get stuck in your head, worried about letting yourself or your partner down, avoiding intimacy because it feels easier than facing another “failed” attempt.


    Here’s what most people never tell you: you’re not broken — the approach has been incomplete. Performance anxiety is a nervous system response, not a personal flaw. You can understand every root cause in your mind, but your body needs to experience something different to truly change. Healing sexual anxiety can’t happen only through talking about it — it requires a somatic approach, one that helps your nervous system learn safety, pleasure, and confidence from the inside out.


    Hi, I’m Megan — Somatic Sexologist & Intimacy Coach. I work with people of all genders and bodies who want to feel confident, relaxed, and connected in sexual intimacy. I offer a supportive space where we address what’s really happening: the fear, the pressure, the shutdown, the performance mindset, and the moment your body disconnects from pleasure. With trauma-informed somatic practices, intimacy coaching, education, and Brainspotting, we shift the patterns that keep showing up in your body — not just your thoughts. Clients often tell me, “This finally makes sense,” because for the first time, they feel a real difference in their nervous system and their sexual confidence.


    You deserve sex that feels good, not stressful. You deserve to feel wanted, capable, and connected — not anxious or ashamed. With the right support, you can move out of survival mode and into pleasure. You can enjoy intimacy again. (or for the first time ever). You can trust your body again. You can show up fully with yourself or your partner and actually feel present.


    If you’re ready to move beyond trying harder and finally try something different — something that works — I’m here to help. Click below to schedule a call, and let’s help your body remember what it already knows: you are capable of pleasure, connection, and confidence.

  • About Me

    With over 20 years of experience as a somatic practitioner, I have devoted my career to understanding and enhancing the intricate connections between the body, mind, and spirit in the realm of sexuality and relationships. I hold certifications in a number of modalities including the Somatica Method of sex and relationship coaching and Sexological Bodywork and I am trauma-trained as a Brainspotting Practitioner. I also hold certifications as a NARM Informed Proffessional (NeuroAffective Relational Model), Tantra Educator, Massage Therapist, and Reiki Practitioner. As one who is dedicated to continuing education and personal development, my work is most currently informed by the Intenal Family Systems model and my skills are always evolving. My diverse background enables me to approach intimacy and personal growth from multiple perspectives, ensuring a holistic and deeply personalized experience for each client.

    My Journey

    I grew up in a Catholic household where conversations about sex and sexuality were steeped in silence or framed by shame. The unspoken message was clear: sex was something you didn’t do—at least not until marriage. Meanwhile, growing up in the 80s and 90s, the media around me painted a very different, increasingly sexualized picture of the world. I felt a deep disparity between the restrictive messages I absorbed at home and school and the magnetic pull of my own sexuality, which I always felt was a powerful part of who I was. The shame I internalized from these conflicting messages led to years of self-loathing, as I wrestled with the belief that my desires made me intrinsically bad or wrong.

    In my early 20s, with little formal education about sex—aside from scare tactics warning of pregnancy or death—I embarked on a journey of exploration. Some of these pathways were expansive; others were deeply painful. My curiosity led me to discover a love for movement, dance, and acrobatics, sparking a passion for travel that allowed me to experience diverse cultures and perspectives. As a lifelong spiritual seeker, I also began to question the religious messages I was raised with, looking for a deeper, more inclusive understanding of human connection and meaning.

    During my time in the Bay Area, I immersed myself in a world rich with opportunities to explore embodiment and sexuality. Tantra workshops, play parties, kink and conscious communication workshops, and music festivals became a playground for my growth. I also worked as a gynecological teaching associate for Project Prepare, where I taught medical students how to perform sexually sensitive exams at Stanford and Touro Universities. Simultaneously, I developed an interest in early childhood brain development and worked with children on the autism spectrum, teaching circus skills and supporting kids with sensory processing challenges.

    When I discovered the Somatica Institute in 2016, everything clicked. The institute offered a space where my diverse studies in embodiment, sexuality, brain development, and child growth could converge into something deeply meaningful. For the first time, my varied paths—seemingly disconnected—aligned into a cohesive purpose.

    Starting my sex coaching practice brought new layers of growth. During my training at the Somatica Institute, long-buried sexual trauma surfaced, leading me to Somatic Experiencing as a client. That experience sparked a new journey of healing and eventually inspired me to train with Somatic Experiencing International. I also noticed that nearly all of my clients had endured some form of sexual trauma, whether it was a direct assault or the result of being raised in a sex-negative culture. In 2021, I discovered Brainspotting and participated in a transformative 8-hour intensive as a client. The experience was life-changing, and I knew I had to bring this powerful tool into my practice. Today, I am a Brainspotting practitioner and offer this modality to clients who feel stuck or need additional nervous system support.

    My lived experience guides my work, creating a welcoming space for all genders and relationship styles. I bring a holistic understanding of how shame, culture, and personal exploration intersect, and I create a space where all clients are seen and celebrated. My journey has been one of reclamation, curiosity, and transformation, and it is an honor to guide others toward their own paths of healing and empowerment.

  • “Megan's approach to experiential learning has been especially effective for me. She carries with her a Mary Poppins' handbag of skills and insights that has to be way heavier than it looks. She pairs practices with the spoken word in ways that allow what you're learning to come alive inside. There's power and pleasure there. My inner life and relationships are better for it.”
