Quite a few times before the first session I contemplated canceling, but I am so glad I made that call. I will say Shelby made all of those fears and concerns melt away . Shelby is a person who's skills make them a perfect match for their occupation. She has a foundation of empathy, insight and kindness that instantly puts you at ease. I have no sense of judgement only encouragement and acceptance when talking about deeply personal things. Shelby is also incredibly insightful, digging through very complicated histories individually and as a couple she was get a clear understanding of dynamics and behavior patterns that were invisible to us but became obvious when she shed light on them. And finally she brought us change and hope for years we have been in a rut both missing the mark with each other but Shelby has helped us work on ourselves to solidify the foundation of intimacy trust and partnership that is required for a fulfilling relationship. TLDR Shelby is a fundementally kind, patient, open minded and understanding person who will help you and your partner get your MOJO back!

She listens intently and provides clear and helpful feedback and truly cares about all who are involved. I would definitely recommend her especially if there is anything you're experiencing or struggling with in your sex life or with intimacy that would benefit from an outside perspective or from someone who knows and supports many ways of living by yourself and others. I have greatly loved and appreciated her involvement and support for myself personally coming out of a relationship, being single, and getting in a new relationship with my partner while also coming into acceptance with who I am both sexually and my gender presentation fluidity. I don't know if many other people in the field that have experience with or can be understanding of and support me across that many aspects, so hopefully this helps anyone making their decision.

Megan is truly a gem! I consider her to be the #1 dating and sex expert in the Bay Area and…read moreprobably beyond! In a few words, her sessions are deeply empowering, fun, and healing. I found her website over a year ago when I was going through difficulty in my dating life. I bought her package deal and in a few months time, I felt empowered, newly in touch with my feminine energy, and ready to have great experiences. Megan is extremely warm, empathetic, and knowledgeable. Everything she shares is always heartfelt and tailored to the individual. She has equipped me with the tools I need to succeed in my romantic life. Moreover, her sessions are always a blast because of the Somatica element. Her sessions go far beyond what a person can gain in traditional talk therapy settings. She also offers supportive coaching during Covid, which goes a long way!

I am extremely grateful for the therapy I received from Megan. I think I speak for a lot of people…read morewhen I say that having an open, honest discussion about relationships, love, and sex can be very difficult. Personally, there is a lot of intricate and sensitive emotions that come with these topics, so finding someone I trust is extremely important. I'm very glad that I found Megan because she provided a non-judgemental and soothing environment for us to work together. It didn't take long for me to open myself up and trust her. Megan is experienced and wise, and throughout the course of our sessions, she also proved herself to be someone who can adapt on the fly. While she possesses a wide range of great qualities, I believe that her strongest attribute is her empathy - she is extremely skilled in immersing in the "world" of others and emerging with unique perspectives to offer. This is a hallmark trait of a very good therapist. Megan is also someone who has the ability to sit with her own emotions - good and bad - and steer the course of her thoughts in the most optimal way possible. These are rare qualities that many of us have yet to master (or even realize we struggle with). All of this is to say, she lives the truth that she speaks. If you are someone who is considering therapy, I highly recommend reaching out to Megan. You will not be disappointed!

She gently guided us into speaking about the deeper issues we needed to address, while still making it fun. I could not believe how knowledgeable and effective she was, and how quickly she understood what we needed to help our relationship.

But she is also really caring while being direct and getting to the point. We would not recommend anyone else but her for issues around sex and intimacy.

My husband and I have been together for more than forty years, and for the last thirty, we have…read morebeen dealing with conflict over sexual intimacy. We tried personal counseling, we tried marriage counseling, and our difficulties only persisted. This year, my husband and I decided once again to seek help. This time, we wanted to find a therapist who could listen to both sides of the sexual conflict that had become a cancer on our marriage, and somehow guide us to a place that would change our sexual relationship to the loving satisfaction we both sought. We found Dr. Anya-a sex and intimacy coach. Our previous attempts at personal and marriage counseling--private sessions with a therapist and couples communication classes through Kaiser--never addressed our fundamental difficulty which seemed to arise from a sex-life that was contentious. This led to a reluctance on the part of my husband to trust therapy to address our conflict. However, at his wits' end, my reluctant husband finally agreed to try seeing Dr. Anya. We warily scheduled a free consultation to discuss our issues and see whether she could help. After describing her methods, Anya reported that with Homeplay--exercises devised to help set new behavior patterns and sensitize partners to their mutual goals--couples were usually able to achieve improvement within six or more sessions. We decided to go for it as we had nothing to lose having tried everything we could think of on our own. Yes, professional guidance is expensive, but in our experience, it was completely worth it. With Anya's guidance, we learned how to open up to each other and address our issues for the first time. We learned how to navigate the differences in our case that are often fundamental to male and female arousal, and that made it easier to understand why we could never seem to get on the same page. Our goal was to break the deadlock we had found ourselves in and to increase our intimacy and have more joy from sex. With Anya's guidance, we feel we have succeeded in re-establishing the connection we had lost. We have rediscovered the ability to address and satisfy our mutual desires. It has not been a particularly simple or easy process to break the destructive cycle that we had found ourselves in after all those years, but Anya has given us tools to use going forward. Finally, it's reassuring knowing that we can always contact Anya for help and further guidance if we find ourselves falling back into old, destructive behaviors.

My wife and I came to Heather 2.5 years into our family planning journey, when what once was fun had started to feel like work. In the last 6 months, Heather has delivered exactly on what she offers, resparking our intimacy circuit - spanning all aspects of intimacy, from communication to physical. Where she's gone above and beyond is being there for us as we continue our journey. We have sessions that are pure play and sessions that are pure conversation. We've talked through our highs and lows, and in those lows, her listening, understanding, and empathy truly shines. She's offered us phrases and perspective that have turned tragedy into bonding, and in doing so, has become a part of our bond. Heather likes to say she welcomes people how they arrive and meets them where they are. I can confidently say that in the best and worst of times, there are few people I want next to my wife and I than her.

From the owner: I support men and women in Tantric inspired journeys of self discovery, reclaiming their truth and…read moreembracing what it means to be truly human. My work is not purely Neo-Tantric nor is it Classical Tantra, though I do draw from elements of both. Moreso, my work is rooted in the true spirit of Tantra- that of turning towards what has been denied within the self for the purpose of integration and reclaiming wholeness. Tantra in its essence is a path of returning to our natural state. It is a path that requires nothing and rejects nothing. I support people in using the content of their unique lives as fuel for spiritual growth and embodied self acceptance. Working with unexamined places such as the shadow, sexuality, power, desire, fear and love, we turn everything into a practice of profound intimacy, growth and spiritual renewal. In Tantra, the path begins right here, where you are, right now.
