Rick is a devoted husband and father who has been married for over 20 years.
Recently, his wife shared that she no longer wanted to have sex. She wanted more presence, intimacy, and time to connect with her body before sharing it with him. This was a huge shock.
They had previously had an active sex life, and adjusting to this new information has been difficult. His wife had a friend who had done somatic work with me and suggested he see me.
Rick awoke to his tendency to ‘check out’ and forget to attune to his wife’s needs. He spent much of his time focussing on work and providing for his family without seeing the full spectrum of partnership.
Through our work together, Rick recognized deep patterning from his family and culture that reinforced his behavior. By clearing these patterns and learning how to regulate his system, Rick now has access to Full Spectrum Embodiment.
With his new embodied awareness, Rick has been able to feel himself and his wife with more presence, understanding, and compassion. Their connection has improved, and they are now moving towards deeper physical intimacy.
In Rick’s words
“Working with Victoria has been a game changer. I have always considered myself to be a physical guy but didn’t understand the different kinds of embodiment. I spent a lot of time in my head and avoided emotions, a lot like my father. My wife always wanted us to talk more but I didn’t know what to say. Now that I’m more connected to my feelings I have more to share and we are closer.”
