A Little About Myself
About Myself
I like to dine out, shop, dance, play dress up & take 1000 pictures, mani/pedi, spa days.. I LOVE science, music, poetry, art, architecture, photography, people watching, etc...
Do you like the idea of being in the presence of a nurturing, authentic professional cuddle therapist that genuinely cares? That’s exactly how I’d describe my nature.
I believe that our society has issues with intimacy, and that professional snuggling helps to place value on positive, platonic touch in a way that empowers both parties involved.
If you need a listening ear, eyes to look into, a hand to hold, and arms to get wrapped up in, I'd be happy to supply you with all of the above.
You can think of me as a support-human! I provide platonic cuddling and therapeutic touch sessions. I'm a trained touch therapy practitioner so you can be assured you’ll get a professional experience with me!
My intention is to provide holistic service that improves your sense of wellbeing, relaxation, and social connectedness. I facilitate a safe space of unconditional, non-judgmental acceptance, clear communication and consensual platonic touch.
👫 We actively practice and uphold the principles of boundaries and consent in our interaction which empowers us to take responsibility over our personal authority and to safely, uninhibitedly connect.🤚 We agree to honor each other's "yes" or "no" and terms within the Code of Conduct and Consent form.
🤗 Why Cuddling?
I believe I was made for this! I'm fascinated by relational neuroscience, social dynamics, and psychology.
I learned the lesson of embracing my own vulnerability through a rough personal history of social anxiety that I allowed to inhibit my life for years causing me to suffer from isolation, lack of confidence and mental health issues.
Previously, I would shy away from nearly every social opportunity. Now I THRIVE off the experience of interacting with new people! 😃
Safe touch, social connection, and personal devlopment helped me reassociate my preconceived fears, break down my barriers and enabled me to experience the best things life and be receptive to connection.
I wonder how cuddle sessions might positively impact your life!
💕Associated Benefits
Human face-to-face connectedness is vital. We're hardwired for close knit relationships and all desire to feel valued, appreciated, and safe.
It's all too easy to become socially isolated and deprived of healthy, meaningful relations with others in today's world.
Studies have linked chronic loneliness to a higher chance of certain illnesses. Regular cuddle sessions can lower stress and improve feelings associated with loneliness.
🚨 Many of us are unconsciously chronically stuck in our sympathetic or parasympathetic nervous system states given our extremely productive, stressful lives and responsibilities.
😌 Cuddling and social connection activites our social engagement system (ventral vagal state), releasing feel-good oxytocin that makes us relaxed as we decrease our defense responses.
☮ In this state of safety, we're more able to be present, oriented the enviornment and to connect, rest and recooperate.
I respect everyone's bodily autonomy and consider it sacred. My goal during a cuddle session is to help you feel comfortable enough to really sink into that delicious cuddle headspace. I want you to feel safe and cared for and respected. I am a trained through another platform and have been through the Cuddle Party workshop on consent and feel pretty good at setting boundaries and communicating with you about yours..
ABOUT SCREENING
After we book a cuddle session via the Cuddle Comfort scheduling tool, I require that we have a brief video chat so that we can make sure we are on the same page. We are required to do it in this order per CC rules. (We aren't allowed to exchange personal contact information until after we book a cuddle session.)
Keep in mind, cuddle therapy is NOT a substitute for psychotherapy or professional medical advice.
