Private Couples Retreat in NorCal
Totally Private Retreat for just you and your partner, you choose the date(s) & time!
It is always so special to have one-on-one time to support you and your partner to go deeper, overcome challenges and transform your lovemaking.
I truly believe in love and in the power of sex. When the sexual connection is deeply nourishing within your partnership, it allows for some of the 'day to day' stuff to get easier.
Forgiveness for small annoyances comes freely, deep and potentially challenging conversations can come to unforeseen resolutions.
WE HAVE NOT BEEN TAUGHT THE TOOLS TO GET US HERE!!!
Most of our resources for learning how to connect are severely broken; our parents didn't have tools for deep connection, our society is fragmented around sex and sexuality, and so many people are educated through porn ~ which is just a big bummer because it does not reflect a reality where true satisfaction is received by all partners.
While I have always worked with both couples and individuals, I am enjoying so much working with couples who have a foundation of true love and care, but perhaps the connection has been fractured along the way (or they are just excited to go even deeper).
How it works…
Along with offering the small-group couples retreats, I am also excited to be opening up my books to couples for TOTALLY PRIVATE immersions with me in the Northern California Sierra foothills (an hour outside of Sacramento).
Come for a weekend away in the mountains and remember your love for one another and connect on an even deeper level.
These are private immersions created just for you, which can be scheduled for just a few hours OR over 2 days. We will meet a few hours each day and you will have home-play assignments to do together between sessions (if you choose a multi-session package) while you also enjoy the sweetness the area has to offer.

When was the last time you invested some immersive time into your partnership? Time that would truly bond you, bring you closer and allow you to enjoy lovemaking more?
There is nothing I love more than supporting you in this journey. My specialty is making an environment that feels comfortable and safe for everyone (even your partner who thinks this might not work for them - lol).

What to expect…
Rather than learning ‘sex techniques’ we are turning inward to touch, and potentially untangle and release tensions and stories held in the body to make space for sensitivity and vulnerability.
This process is different for everyone. It usually begins with simple movement, breath and sound and might feel very unsexy and unusual… depending on what the body/psyche is ready for, this will often open us to the unknown space where a few things can happen;
Often, the depth and flow of love comes bursting to the surface, we are deeply moved, we suddenly see and feel our lover with new eyes and the doorway for creativity of how that love can express can awaken.
Sometimes, the essence of what has been standing in the way of intimacy arises. This can be confronting and even scary. We may be invited to address deeper issues that have created shut down and lack of safety.
In an immersion or session, I am initially giving your body the simple practices and I am supporting you by guiding the process based on how your bodies respond and what comes to the surface.
Sometimes when there is a swelling of love and tenderness, we can use the opportunity to move into more sensual exploration (always fully clothed) allowing you to continue to sink into and expand within the opening.
When the bodies reveal dynamics and challenges, we begin a process that may include opportunities for honest communication or continued exploration with an individual partner to help connect with the cause…
When a session or immersion unearths deeper challenges (which can happen even when we have come to the session with no ‘problems’ or ‘issues’) I see this as an exciting invitation into deeper territory. Often (though not always) better sex has been hiding under dynamics that have kept us stuck. This is not necessarily because there are ‘problems’ or issues that need to be ‘solved’ in the relationship, but often because of deeper lifelong stories about who we think we are supposed to be and internal programs that stem from both societal or familial norms and limitations.
When we are showing up for this part of the process, my role is to listen to your bodies to discover what it is that will allow both partners to continue to feel safe as we enter into this uncharted territory.
Great sex, sex that continues to deepen and evolve within relationship, sex that shakes you to your core is NOT about technique, it’s not just about finding what turns your partner on, it’s about what emerges when the bodies unwind some of life’s tensions, when we get truly intimate with ourselves and a new kind of nakedness opens up between partners. When this happens, an incredible aroma of sweetness, delight, receptivity, love, inspiration arises. We have the opportunity to discover what it is to meet unhindered, even if just for a moment. The bodies light up and something new happens.
This is what the work I do with you is pointing towards. An immersion or weekly sessions are just the beginning this journey. A journey that then continues on through the rest of your life.
When I’m working with couples, what happens during our time together ranges wildly based on what your bodies let me know you need in order to begin the journey of opening in this way.
For one couple, that may be simply a series of practices that lead to feelings of love and openness.
For another (maybe one experiencing deep, years-long challenges) it might mean a lot of talking things out, guidance and communication techniques searching for ways that both partners can feel heard and moving towards repair where possible.
With another couple, one partner may need additional support and holding to feel safe as emotions and challenges unfold. In these instances, I may work with their body through visualization, gentle touch, conversation and I will often see how I can include their partner in supporting them as well.
I am consistently listening and watching for where the bodies need to pause and create safety and what is needed to build that safety within relationship.
Both individually and within the partnership there can be trauma that is at the root of what is keeping the bodies from opening and unfolding in deep pleasure together, I seek to always use my skill to create safety so the bodies can digest and integrate what needs to move in their own timing. This is why what happens in a session and the kind of results you will experience from this work can vary so much from couple to couple.
This is also why the outcome of our work together can truly support a consistent deepening for the rest of the time you choose to spend with your partner. An invitation and tools to a path that can continue to unfold.
Many couples take what they learn in an immersion, implement the practices and choose to continue on their own with what they have learned. Others will choose to invest in continued support through virtual sessions. It is so individual what will work for you and your partner and I will always give you clear guidance for how to continue on your own.
