As professionals equipped with specialized tools and knowledge, sexologist can help us overcome difficulties and enhance sexual satisfaction.

Here’s what happens in a typical office or Zoom visit with a somatic sexologist:

1. The coach will listen to your experiences and feelings around the sexual issues you are having.

2. They will ask you questions about the history of the problem, and find out all the information they need to help you.

3. Depending on the specific approach they embrace as a coach (more on that below), they will talk with you about ways to address the problem. They might suggest videos or homework to watch. Practice tools in session could include breathwork, movement, self-touch, learning touch skills, and communication tools. And, always, they will help you move through shame and become more empowered around your sexual issues.

4. Lastly, your coach will talk you through how you can further implement these changes into your life.

Modalities such as breath work, skills in touch, genital and anal work, education in arousal anatomy, massage, mindful erotic practice, scar tissue remediation and body mapping are offered as ways of deepening connection and facilitating learning.

Sexological Bodyworkers in Australasia are trained and certified through the Institute of Somatic Sexology. I am certified and a current member of the Somatic Sex Educators Association of Australasia and as such work in adherence to their professional code of ethics.

Some of the bounderies of the work are: Touch is one way (from practitioner to client) and protocols such as wearing gloves are adhered to during genital and anal touch.

Sexological Bodyworkers are erotic educators and offer deep experiential learning that is designed to awaken and enliven your sensual, sexual self. description

A relationship and intimacy coach is someone who supports individuals and couples in learning vital skills for relating, especially in and romantic relating. Intimacy coach teaches you to develop conflict resolution skills and offer tools to deepen intimacy and pleasure.

First off – it’s vital to know that sexological body worker and Intimacy coaching does not involve sex. Practitioners always keep their clothes on – the only professionals legally allowed to have sex with clients are sexual surrogates – and you must be in treatment with a sex therapist to see a surrogate legally.

That being said, sexological body worker and Intimacy coach can use hands-on methods to teach sexual skills. They can also practice certain types of touch and seduction, within legal boundaries. For example, teaching arousing types of touch for the body, physical disinhibition, and passionate touch.

Research shows that online therapeutic sessions are as effective as in-person ones. They even come with a whole set of additional benefits like:

1. ACCESSIBILITY. There are plenty of physical barriers to accessing in-person professional help. Online sessions help sweep these geographic hurdles aside. Distance is no longer a barrier. There is someone ready and waiting to help you at the click of a button.

2. TIME. In our hectic lives, ‘me time’ can be hard to come by. You might have a frantic schedule and work irregular hours. Or perhaps you’re a single parent or a carer who’s always racing against the clock. Online sessions fit comfortably around your schedule.

3. PRIVACY. For some, online therapy offers a comforting sense of privacy. Plus there are plenty of security measures in place to protect your privacy online.

4. HOME COMFORTS. Let’s face it: opening up and talking about how we’re really feeling can be tough, vulnerable and exposed. But, sometimes, it’s the little things that make it easier. Many folks feel more comfortable opening up online than in person. It may feel less daunting. Or perhaps you’d feel more at ease if you could snuggle up on your sofa with a cozy pair of bedroom slippers.

Yes. If you're experiencing low sex drive, loss of desire, or lack of intimacy in your marriage, working with a Somatic Sexologist can help you understand what's really happening beneath the surface and guide you toward reawakening your desire for sex and intimacy.

Low libido in women is rarely just a physical issue. Often, it's connected to having sex that doesn't feel good, missing emotional connection with your partner, unresolved resentment, stress and exhaustion, or simply not knowing what genuinely turns you on.

Together, we'll identify what's blocking your desire and create a personalised approach to reignite intimacy. You'll learn:

• How to reconnect with pleasure in your body and everyday life, building the foundation for desire to return naturally

• What genuinely arouses you and how to communicate and teach those needs effectively to your partner.

• Tools to repair emotional disconnection and address unresolved resentment that kills attraction

• Self-exploration practices to rediscover your sensual self without pressure or expectations

• How to bring the spark back by creating more fulfilling intimate experiences that actually feel good

This isn't about fixing yourself—it's about reawakening parts of you that may have gone quiet for very good reasons.

While sex therapy can involve diving into childhood wounds with lingering effects on your adult life, somatic sexology focuses on actionable tools and exercises to help you overcome your erotic roadblocks.

Somatic sexologist often work in tandem with therapists, G.p’s, and other professionals.

The biggest issues couples face are around differences in beliefs and needs around money, sex, and child-rearing. While a Intimacy coach and a marriage coach have very similar approaches to these, couple’s therapy is quite different.

In couple’s therapy, you are limited to only talking through issues.

Intimacy coaching for couples, however – especially if it is somatically-based or experiential, offers tactile practices that help overcome challenging dynamics in a relationship. They can also help you to establish secure attachment, and provide tools for relationship repair during challenging times.
