I created Pleasure as Praxis because I saw a huge gap in the way women understand their relationship to pleasure and by extension their female nervous system.

As a doctoral candidate specializing in the history and philosophy of science of the female nervous system and the female orgasm my practice is informed by my research.

I merge what I call the "new" science of the female nervous system that is largely led by female researchers, birth workers and midwives, doulas and somatic experiencing practitioners who understand the female pelvis as the center of our somatic experience and therefore our nervous system healing.

However, I am not called to this work purely out of curiosity.

My methodology is also informed by my own lived experience battling with chronic illness (muscular dystrophy, POTS, PCOS, and CPTSD)

I understand the fear and distress that overcomes us when we are told that we are facing a lifelong incurable condition. Or when we simply don't believe we can change because there is too much to face.

This is why I believe in soft work, in slow progress, in tender care for ourselves with strategy and science backed female nervous system informed approaches. I love what I get to offer women because it is exactly what I yearned for in my darkest times.
