 "Our sex life is better than ever..."
Matt and Amanda from Texas
December 2023

"Before working with Susan, we were experiencing multiple challenges in our love life. As soulmates who love each other unconditionally, it was frustrating to have seemingly basic aspects of our sex life continually causing issues. We were struggling with basic communication, pain from rejection and abandonment, understanding our own bodies and preferences, intimacy outside of the bedroom, and religious shame and guilt. We were struggling to be on the same page in the bedroom, and it permeated into our daily lives outside of the bedroom.

Since working with Susan, we’ve grown so much as a couple and are happier than ever and feel well equipped with different ways to work through any future challenges. Having built a whole new level of trust, we’re now communicating better than ever, including working through tough conversations, and communicating our needs, expectations, desires, and boundaries.

Our sex life is better than ever, as Susan helped us find what feels good for both of us and get on the same page in many ways. We are able to enjoy intimacy with each other more now with a stronger connection. We’ve been able to shed so much baggage and just be in love. We now have far less conflict and feel more free to express ourselves verbally and physically, opening up a whole new world for our sex life.        

Signing up for sex therapy and intimacy coaching meant stepping out of our comfort zone and we didn’t know quite what to expect, but we immediately felt comfortable working with Susan because it was clear that she is knowledgeable, professional, and caring.

This was the best of both worlds’ scenario for us, as Susan was able to methodically and professionally teach us. She is also so sweet, kind, understanding, and compassionate. Not once was Susan judgmental. We were surprised at how comfortable we were discussing very personal matters with her. Susan was amazing at truly listening to understand where we’re coming from, and where we’re trying to go.

She was intentional about consistently checking in on our goals and progress, and was great at guiding us in the right direction, personalized for us. Through several different types of intimacy exercises and practices during our sessions, Susan curated some very personal experiences for us to help us better understand ourselves and each other, and to work through some of our barriers. She typically provides custom “homework” assignments to practice on our own, and builds on the experience each week. We can’t recommend Susan enough, as our relationship and intimacy has improved so much through her helping us find our pathway to pleasure."

Praise for The Pleasure Keys Couples Retreat

"Before attending the retreat, I had  a hard time allowing myself to seek pleasure. I did not know what  wanted and had a hard time being present.  After completing the Pleasure Keys retreat, I am now able to communicate my needs and desires and understand my limits and boundaries. I discovered what I want and need and I’m no longer afraid to ask for what I want. This experience was nothing short of amazing!"-T.T

"I am now able to own my desires and not feel afraid to express them. I can differentiate between my desires and those of my partner. I feel much more confident trusting and valuing the signals of my body and what I am feeling in the moment." Noel G. 

"My wife and I were struggling with different levels of desire for physical intimacy and were unable to break free of all the external distractions in order to just focus on each other and our relationship. After attending the retreat, I know how to ask my wife for what she needs and how to be more present for us and our relationship." -Dwayne T. 

"We were both struggling with knowing what we wanted and how to communicate those desires to one another. The retreat gave us an opportunity to discover and explore our desires in a safe space with each other. Susan broke down the learning really well in to small digestible pieces and we were surprised by how much progress we made in a short amount of time."-Anonymous 

"I had almost given up hope....."
Anonymous, Austin, TX
November 2023

Before working with Susan, I was struggling with feelings of sadness and emptiness about my sexuality. I was desperate to feel sexual pleasure, connection to myself and my partner, and experience my first orgasm even as a 28-year-old woman. I felt embarrassed and like there was no one who would listen on a deeper level to help me understand what was going on with my mind, body, and spirit..

I didn’t know who to talk to about how I was feeling, and when I did open up to a friend or medical professional, I was met with vague answers or just empty advice like  “buy another toy” or “try more foreplay”. I felt like I was “broken” and not proud to be a woman.  I had almost given up hope of feeling pleasure, connection and orgasm.

One day, I used my last shred of hope to google “sex therapist’, and I am so grateful Susan’s website popped up. After one consultation call, she assured me she could help me learn to feel more pleasure with myself and my partner, and she delivered. I was so grateful and relieved that someone was finally listening to me in the way I had been craving for years.  

The most beautiful thing for me after working with Susan is that the work helped me not only in the bedroom but also in life. I’ve applied the skills I’ve learned to my everyday life which has made me a better friend, sister, partner, coworker, and a happier and free person overall.

Sex therapy is obviously new territory for most people and when I had my first session, I was very nervous. But with a gorgeous mix of intelligence and spiritually, Susan made me feel very comfortable and able to share what I needed to heal. Susan not only helped me heal and become stronger, but also made me realize how wonderful women are and what a gift it is to be one.

"This experience has been truly lifechanging..."
Erik and Michelle Harvey, Denver CO,
June 2017

"With what my wife learned from working with Susan has helped us learn as a couple how to really be present with one another in ways that we weren't before. 

We have learned how to just grow in those moments together and be one in a way that we've only ever heard about before and  in ways that we never really could have even imagined.  This experience has been truly life changing for us."

"I've become more confident...."
Bailey D, Austin, TX
April 2022

“When I signed up for this course, I thought I was just going to learn about sex, but I’ve been surprised that I ended up learning so much more about myself than I ever expected! 

It’s helped me confront those uncomfortable parts of myself instead of  just sweeping them under the rug or trying to ignore them. I’ve been able to take a step back and to examine the places in my life where I’ve been unsure of myself.

It’s changed how I carry myself and the decisions I make. I have better discernment over who I allow into my life and why. I’ve become more confident in all areas of my life.“

A Husband is Amazed

"When my wife began studying with Susan my initial reaction was “hey, that’s great – Susan seems really grounded.” As they began sessions together, however, what I saw emerge and take shape in my wife was a steadily growing sense of self and self-confidence.

But what was as equally striking as witnessing the changes in my wife, was noticing the changes that occurred in me as a result.

The work that my wife was doing with Susan created a space for me to see my wife in a new way, and in a way that increased my own capacity to see her and to love her for who she really was. I unconditionally recommend Susan.”

 -Dave Evans, Austin TX

No More Guilt and Shame

“I now have a framework to think about how my husband and I were interacting intimately in the past. Now I can see why it wasn’t working for u!  After working with Susan, I now  know how to move forward.

“I’ve also been able to feel things in my body that I never thought was possible. There’s a lot more sensation and feelings “down there” than I ever have experienced before.

I wasn’t expecting that. I know and understand a lot more about my sexual drivers, what gets me aroused and what are blockers, where my wall is in the marriage, and I no longer have guilt and shame associated with my sexual self. The last one in particular is very liberating.”
