Let’s talk about

somatic sexology

Somatic sexology is a body-centered approach to sex education and therapy that draws from the Greek word soma, meaning body. It integrates mental, emotional, and physical experiences to support individuals and couples in exploring and enhancing their sexual well-being through embodied awareness and connection.

Core Aspects of Somatic Sexology

  • Body awareness: Tuning into physical sensations, breath, movement, and touch.

  • Consent and boundaries: Practicing clear communication around touch and emotional comfort.

  • Nervous system regulation: Helping people feel safe and grounded during sexual exploration.

  • Sex-positive education: Supporting women of all ages in an open and explorative way. 

  • Embodiment practices: Using tools like breathwork, mindful movement, or guided touch exercises to reconnect with pleasure and presence.

Benefits of Somatic Sexology:

  1. Healing sexual trauma or shame
    By working gently with the body, clients can reclaim a sense of safety and pleasure in their sexuality.

  2. Improved body image and self-esteem
    It helps people appreciate their bodies as sources of wisdom and pleasure rather than judgment.

  3. Enhanced intimacy and communication
    Couples can deepen trust and connection by learning to express needs, desires, and boundaries clearly.

  4. Greater sexual pleasure and fulfillment
    Through mindful touch and exploration, people often discover new pathways to pleasure.

  5. Increased self-awareness and emotional resilience
    Many practices help regulate emotions and develop a deeper sense of self-connection.

  6. Support for Sexual Dysfunctions
    Holistic support is available for concerns such as low desire, difficulty with orgasm, and other sexual challenges. These may be addressed in conjunction with medical or therapeutic care, especially when related to conditions like pelvic pain, PCOS, endometriosis, STIs, or other vaginal health issues.

What to Expect in a Session

Each session is client-led and tailored to your unique needs, creating a supportive space for exploration and growth. Depending on your goals, we may incorporate talk therapy, meditation, breathwork, drumming, somatic self-connection practices, and education. These tools offer practical, actionable steps to support meaningful change—always approached with compassion and without resistance.

While sessions are non-touch, they are deeply rooted in energetic and emotional shifts. We work with your body’s natural rhythms, including the different phases of the menstrual cycle, acknowledging how your experience of sex, pleasure, and desire can evolve over time. Whether you're navigating longer cycles, fertility challenges, or the emotional complexities of sex when trying to conceive, sessions are designed to help you reconnect with yourself and move toward your goals with clarity and empowerment.

HEAR WHAT MY CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY

  • Tegan has taught me more about my anatomy and my sexuality in the last 2 months than I have learnt over the course of my life. Our sessions together are very informative, caring & fun. Even though I went to Tegan quite embarrassed, I'm now feeling really positive about myself. I have grown as a woman and I will continue to work with Tegan to keep finding more out about who I am.

  • Tegan has a wealth of knowledge behind her and is so passionate about what she teaches. I went to Tegan to learn more about my body and to improve my relationship both with communication and sex. Together me and my partner have learnt so much and are feeling really great about our future and the joy of sex again.

  • Seeking help from this amazing sex coach Tegan, was a turning point for me. After struggling with painful sex for years, the coaching sessions provided me with understanding, techniques, and support that have transformed my intimate experiences. I now enjoy a pain-free, fulfilling sex life that seemed impossible before. I can't express how liberating and life-changing this journey has been!

  • Working with Tegan has opened my eyes to the world of my own anatomy and menstrual cycle. The sessions were enlightening and empowering, transforming how I experience my body daily. I've gained invaluable knowledge and confidence that have dramatically improved my well-being and self-awareness. It’s been so great to work with Tegan.

  • I was terrified to even ask where to start when it came to my problems around my relationship and sex. Finally approaching Tegan was the best day of my life... The coaching not only deepened my understanding of intimacy but also our connection. We've learned to communicate more openly and rediscover passion in ways I didn't think were possible. It's been a profoundly empowering journey. Life-changing, indeed! I would recommend Tegan to everyone.

  • I made an appointment with Tegan out of pure curiosity. Ive followed her for ages and can feel and see her real passion for making changes in the lives of women. We can all benefit from continuing to learn about our bodies and that's exactly what Tegan did with me. We spent hours talking about challenges women face and dived deep into some of my own issues i was very ready to heal from. Not only was Tegan great with all things Yoni and sex but i am going to continue to see her for the amazing coaching she offers.
