  • Liz Ray

    Relational Bodywork + Somatic Sexologist

    Liz Ray, PhD, offers sessions in relational bodywork and embodied sex coaching for individuals and couples of all genders and sexual orientations. She has over 25 years of experience in body-based practices and is dedicated to creating a safe and non-judgmental environment that supports you in reclaiming your sexual life.


    Perhaps you haven’t dated for awhile or have been in extended relationships where the intimacy didn’t quite evolve. Perhaps you’d like to learn more about your body, new approaches to touch, or how to express sexual needs more clearly. Whether you’ve experienced an event that has impacted your sexual functioning, feel shy, ashamed, lacking in desire, want to break old habits, or have erectile or orgasmic concerns, somatic sessions will support you.

Clients often seek our support for:

Dealing with live or health changes
Our sessions often promote a deep sense of relaxation and stress relief. Embodiment practices help support neuroplasticity and response flexibility which builds resiliency and emotional literacy.
Sexual Empowerment
We support individuals and couples to embody their healthiest, happiest version of their erotic self. Both bodywork and embodiment coaching are valuable tools to support pleasure, presence and intimacy.
Increased Energy and Vitality
Our clients say that this work helps them balance the body's energy, which in turn leads to increased vitality and overall energy levels. People who undergo bodywork or coaching sessions often report feeling more refreshed and invigorated.
Enhanced Emotional Well-being
Body Poem and relational bodywork can help reconnect you to your own innate self organising principle and from their can arise the simple grace of being human and inhabiting your beautiful body.
