My Vision

I envision a world where everyone, regardless of their brain or body, can experience the joy and connection that comes from pleasure-filled, healthy and fulfilling sex and intimacy.

I want to empower individuals living with a disability or injury to rediscover their full sense of self, enhance their emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual well-being to foster a deeply fulfilling sex life.

Back In My Body Therapies is dedicated to breaking down barriers, reducing stigmas, and challenging societal taboos that have long held people with disabilities back from enjoying their full sexual potential.
