ONLINE: Pleasure After Trauma: Reclaiming Your Erotic Self

Our bodies remember what we’ve been through — and sometimes, that history shows up in our intimacy. Pleasure After Trauma offers a compassionate, evidence-informed space to reconnect with your body, rebuild trust, and rediscover joy in your erotic self. Through a trauma-informed lens, this workshop explores how trauma impacts desire, arousal, and safety, and how to gently reintroduce pleasure at your own pace.

We’ll unpack common myths about “healing through sex,” discuss boundaries and consent after trauma, and explore practical tools for grounding, sensory regulation, and body awareness. Whether you’re a survivor, a partner, or a helping professional, this class provides a roadmap to pleasure that centers autonomy, empowerment, and self-compassion.
