About Me

I believe our bodies hold tremendous wisdom, and that intimacy, pleasure, and Eros can be powerful pathways toward knowing ourselves more fully. I create spaces where people can slow down, reconnect with themselves, explore what they truly want, and discover new possibilities for connection and aliveness. Through facilitation, coaching, bodywork, and sacred intimacy, I invite people to honor their bodies, expand their capacity for pleasure, and live with greater authenticity and open-heartedness.

Client Testimonials:

"I love Don's facilitation style. He's warm, engaging, and a lot of fun. As a leader, he's kind and generous with his time and knowledge."

Coaching. Bodywork. Sacred Intimacy. Every session begins with you—your intentions, your boundaries, your curiosity, and what you're ready to explore. Together, we create a personalized experience that may include coaching, embodied practices, bodywork, or sacred intimacy, always grounded in choice, consent, and authentic connection.

More Testimonials . . .

Amazing. I didn't know how much I needed to do this work. Really appreciate your kindness and guidance. 

Donnie has a natural gift. He's part healer, part therapist. 90 minutes with him is one of the best investments I can give to myself.

"He creates a relaxed, welcoming, an safe space. He encourages communication and a place to express vulnerability."
