She will help clients pull open issues and concretize them outside of themselves with objects, and scarves giving space and voice to see the issues more clearly. Clients often find big shifts in their lives after these sessions.
As a sexual trauma survivor, Marisa learned first-hand the power of movement and pleasure as medicine. The practice of asana helped her re-inhabit her own body and the study of sacred sexuality allowed her to begin her healing journey. Marisa’s work is founded on the practices embodiment and presence.
Marisa’s own self care includes aligning with joy through ritual, journaling, and movement. She is dedicated to releasing whatever holds her back from serving the highest good. She offers group classes, custom coaching, personal care support, and mentorship with the intention of meeting folks where they are along their sexual health and pleasure journey.
