Book Couples & Polyamorous Counselling & Sex Therapy by PractitionerSomatic Sex Coaching
For many of us, simply talking about the issue is not enough — we might need some experiential guidance and support to know how to enhance pleasure and feel safe in our bodies. An embodied intimacy approach helps you connect with your felt experience. Here, we listen, explore, and teach the body what safe, fulfilling and wildly pleasurable intimacy, can look like. Human intimacy cannot be cognitively planned or practiced, in a way that allows us to grow within our own connections. Intimacy is felt, experienced, and learned through the soma (the body).
A Somatic Sex and Relationship Coach is your personal guide to exploring and reclaiming your sensual superpowers. We focus on experiencing your body, helping you unlock and embrace pleasure, desire, and intimacy like never before. From breathwork to body awareness exercises, they'll show you the path to becoming a true master of your own pleasure domain.

Book Reduced Rate Options (Psychological Counselling) by PractitionerKetamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) offers transformative benefits for individuals seeking profound personal growth and healing. By integrating carefully administered psychedelics with therapeutic support, this approach can facilitate deep emotional breakthroughs, enhance self-awareness, and address persistent psychological issues. Clients often experience accelerated progress in overcoming trauma, anxiety, and depression, as the psychedelic experience can help unlock new perspectives and insights. The supportive therapeutic environment ensures these experiences are integrated meaningfully, promoting long-lasting positive change and a renewed sense of well-being.
Drawing on her extensive experience counseling thousands of clients, Angela has developed a profound understanding of relationship dynamics and intimacy issues, leading her to create the KISSS Method, which stands for Ketamine-Induced Self and Sexuality Synchronization, a transformative therapeutic approach that integrates ketamine’s profound healing potential as a psychedelic with psychotherapy, tantric practices, and the science of neuroplasticity. The method is designed to help individuals and couples heal trauma, deepen emotional and sexual intimacy, and achieve self-actualization.

Book Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) by PractitionerEMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Therapy
Discover the power of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy, a scientifically validated approach to heal trauma and unlock emotional freedom. In each session, you’ll engage in a structured eight-phase process that begins with identifying a specific traumatic memory or distressing experience. Through guided bilateral stimulation, you’ll reprocess these memories in a safe, controlled way. This unique method desensitizes the emotional charge tied to past events, allowing your brain to integrate them more adaptively, much like healing a wound from the inside out. Transform yourself, reclaim resilience, improve relationships, and live more fully in the present. Tailored to your pace and needs, this client-led therapy offers a compassionate space to confront what holds you back and emerge stronger.
