Mediator Facilitator
Pleasure Professional
Welcome and gratitude!
This opportunity to share my practice of tantra with you warms my spirit. When read together the seed sounds "tan" and "tra" mean "a tool with which to weave." At TAnntra decolonized, trauma-informed, power-conscious, non-violent communication and embodiment exercises are among the tools I use with clients or participants as we become interwoven, interactive, engaged, connected, supported, and held in pleasure (Tashé Ann). Those tools are both time-served and ever-evolving.
I am an EroSomatic Touch® Practitioner, an Authentic Consent™ Facilitator and Certified Teacher, and a Sex Doula. I chose to pursue certification that addressed aspects of my Self that are undervalued elsewhere; I am - among other identities - a Black, genderous, bibliophilic dakini. I now center and resource others of that ilk as they intentionally tend to their Selves. I am a member of the American Association of Somatic Sexology and the TAnntra community. My work is informed by my years of experience in alternative dispute resolution as a registered neutral with the Georgia Office of Dispute Resolution and is guided by my core values.
My journey through intensive, extensive, and ongoing trainings has expanded my practice of holding space to include Tantra-Informed Mediation™ sessions and coaching services (which I often lovingly consider to be inward-facing mediations). I pass on all the tools that have been gifted to me when teaching Authentic Consent™, offering Mediation Preparation, and facilitating or speaking at community events. Pleasure is a practice, and one way I practice pleasure on the regular is as a member of ATL Cuddle Club.
I look forward to connecting with you!
