Tovah Petra Coaching

In a world that rushes past real connection, Tovah Petra’s coaching offers a space to slow down, feel deeply, and come home to yourself. Blending Somatica-based intimacy work with a trauma-aware, body-centered approach, she gently guides you to explore your core desires, understand your relational patterns, and create connections that feel authentic, safe, and fully alive.


In Tovah’s presence, nothing is too tender, too wild, or too much. Your body becomes sacred ground—where desire speaks, boundaries breathe, and emotions are honored without shame. She guides you into the depths of your own longing, where pleasure is permission and intimacy begins with truth. This is a space to be fully seen, fully felt, and fully claimed—in your wholeness, your eroticism, and your power.



As a Trauma-Informed Somatica Trained Sex & Intimacy Coach, I support people to experience pleasure through their bodies and help reduce barriers and noise from their heads.  When it comes to developing relationship skills, there is no better way than to practice with another person.   I will create a safe, caring, patient environment for you to learn practical tools for intimacy. 




What is the Somatica Method?

The Somatica® Method is a holistic, loving, and systematic approach to intimacy and relationship coaching. 
Somatica Coaching is founded on the belief that the most efficient and effective way to transform shame and fully blossom into yourself is through pleasure. It invites people to move beyond shame, clarify their needs and boundaries, and live emotionally connected and erotically embodied lives. 
It prioritizes the experience of joy and satisfaction to build deep intimacy and authentic relationships.


Who Can Benefit?

Somatic Sex and Relationship Therapy can benefit individuals and couples looking to improve their relationship with themselves and their partners. It’s effective for those wanting to overcome issues like shame, low self-esteem, body image concerns, past sexual trauma, intimacy challenges, or difficulty expressing desires and needs. Additionally, it’s useful for those who want to break free from patterns of people-pleasing or co-dependency.

The Goal

The ultimate aim of Somatic Sex and Relationship Therapy is to empower individuals to live more authentic, connected lives by embracing their full range of emotions, sensations and desires. Through body-centered practices, they develop self-trust, healthy boundaries, and the ability to create satisfying, honest relationships.

What is Experiential Therapy?

In sessions with me, we have the option of entering into a "relationship lab" where you will have the opportunity to explore authentic and secure connection. We work together to create experiences that lead to joy, ease and pleasure in relationships and sex.  Empathy, attunement and radical de-shamification are the keystones of my work. Traditional talk therapy has its merits, but it is limited to the realm of thoughts, concepts and words. 
In my work, I encourage people to get out of the theory and get into the lived experience of fulfilling and powerful connection with others.


Welcome to Your Relationship Laboratory

What to Expect:
In our intimate container of sessions, we'll create a unique space where we explore and understand how we relate to one another. As we build intimacy, I will be tracking my own reactions, while sharing them with you gently and constructively on behalf of your growth, and mine.

Learning Through Experience:
Experience is the most powerful teacher. While embodiment is a popular topic, its true impact is felt through practice, not just discussion. By directly experiencing vulnerability, safety, arousal, loving connection, and freedom from shame, you'll build the confidence to enhance your intimate life.

Tailored to Your Needs:
I offer a holistic framework for understanding and working with trauma from a body-centered perspective. You will gain practical tools to help you access the innate wisdom that guides the healing process for yourself. Our approach is centered around what genuinely works for you and your loved ones. Using the Somatica® Method, we will help you and your partner find authentic expression, discover your unique erotic blueprint, and communicate effectively. Together, we'll explore the vast possibilities of human intimacy, activate your primal energies, and integrate them into your life. Guided by the Somatica® Method, our coaching focuses on deepening connections through embodied self-awareness and effective communication. Join us to cultivate deeper, more fulfilling relationships and embrace a more vibrant life.
