Why I Chose Erotic Healing as My Path: A Personal Story of Intimacy, Identity, and Service

In 2008, I began a massage therapy program with a deep curiosity about the human body. I was fascinated not just by muscles and movement, but by the whole landscape of touch—how it could heal, soothe, awaken, and connect. I studied everything from anatomy and pathology to ethics and therapeutic presence. I didn’t know then that this would lead me to the unique and sacred work I do today—but looking back, it feels like every step was part of the path.


Today, I work as a tantric massage therapist and sacred intimate, creating spaces for men—especially gay, bi, and queer men—to explore their bodies, their desires, and their stories in ways that are safe, empowering, and deeply healing.



Touch as a Pathway to Wholeness


My work lives at the intersection of sexuality, spirituality, and somatic awareness. And while it includes the typical elements of erotic massage, I’m most passionate about the therapeutic side—supporting men with trauma, prostate health, sexual self-discovery at any age, or simply the need to be touched with presence and respect.


I understand what it’s like to carry shame, to question your worthiness for pleasure, or to feel disconnected from your own erotic self. I’ve walked that path too. And it’s through this work—both giving and receiving—that I’ve come to understand the healing power of erotic energy when it’s held in trust and reverence.



A Lifelong Student of Erotic Expression


Over the years, my journey has taken me through many facets of erotic expression—both personally and professionally. Each experience has deepened my understanding of sexuality, not just as a physical act, but as a layered, living energy that touches every part of who we are.


I’ve learned a great deal—about my own body and desires, and just as importantly, about the stories, struggles, and longings of others. To support this growth, I’ve immersed myself in ongoing learning: tantra trainings, bodywork intensives, intimacy workshops, and retreats that explored the physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of erotic connection.


These teachings have helped me hold space more skillfully. They’ve given me tools for presence, compassion, and energetic awareness. And they’ve reinforced a truth I return to again and again: that erotic healing isn’t just about pleasure—it’s about integration. It’s about becoming whole.



Sacred Intimacy Is Not Just a Service—It’s a Practice


Being a sacred intimate means showing up with full presence. It means honoring the boundaries, desires, fears, and hopes of every man who comes to see me. Whether we’re doing sex education basics, exploring prostate pleasure, or just learning to breathe and feel again—it’s all sacred.


There’s a misconception that erotic work is about performance or fantasy. In reality, the kind of work I do is about truth. It’s about allowing someone to be fully themselves, often for the first time, and witnessing them without judgment. That, in itself, can be deeply erotic. And deeply healing.



This Work Chose Me


I didn’t plan on becoming a sacred intimate. But over time, it became clear that I had something to offer—something rooted in empathy, embodied wisdom, and a strong ethical foundation. My early training in massage therapy taught me how to touch with intention, how to listen to the body, and how to be a safe container for someone else’s process. Layering in elements of tantra, Shamanism, energetic presence, and sexual healing just made sense—it allowed me to serve more fully.


And while the world may not always understand this path, I do. I see the change it makes. I see men leaving lighter, more open, more grounded. I see people discovering parts of themselves they thought were lost, or had never known.


A few years ago, I moved from the East Coast of the U.S. to Barcelona, Spain—answering a call for something new, both personally and professionally. Since then, my work has continued to evolve. Living in Europe has given me the opportunity to connect with clients from many cultures, and to travel, teach, and offer sessions in different cities. It’s expanded my perspective, deepened my practice, and reminded me how universal the need is—for touch, for presence, for permission to feel.


This work continues to grow with me. And I remain committed to showing up, holding space, and offering the kind of healing that bridges the physical and the spiritual.



You’re Welcome Here


If something in this story speaks to you—whether you’re feeling curious, cautious, or simply ready to reconnect with your body—you’re warmly invited to reach out.


My sessions are confidential, trauma-informed, and always rooted in respect and consent. Whether you’re new to erotic exploration or returning to it after time away, I’ll meet you where you are.


You’re not alone on this journey.

And you’re welcome here.
