ABOUT
ABOUT ME
Hi, I am Zhenya, I am a kinky shapeshifter. I am a queer, witchy, pleasure-informed coach, somatic sex educator, embodiment professional, and pleasure activist. A triple Scorpio, I have dedicated my life to the study, practice & revival of ancient holistic healing practices rooted in earth, body, ritual, and the spirit. Bringing the sacred into the mundane helps me return to wholeness and awakens my connection to something greater in what feels like a fractured world. I love witnessing the beauty that unfolds when we make room for our passions, creativity & play. I am passionate about nurturing space for clients to understand their needs, clear pathways to authentic expression, and create healthy life-affirming relationships and sexuality.
“Every cell in our body is wired for pleasure. I believe Pleasure is our birthright and what brings us our liveliness, connection, and intimacy with this world and All life.” - Jaiya
Recovering my authentic self, reparenting my small parts, and giving myself the opportunities to play, nurture, and create what I had always dreamed of has brought joy back into my life. My life has drastically shifted. I truly love myself and all of my parts.
Through the potent somatic-based modalities of The Erotic Blueprints®, Accelerated Evolution®, recovery frameworks, and parts work I have integrated the unconscious parts that were running my life. In my own sex life, I stopped people-pleasing. I know how to say fuck yes to the things I want and fuck no to things I do not. Nurturing a sense of wholeness and lovingly embracing all of my parts has allowed me to embrace the shadows, and embody the superpowers they have gifted me.
I did not do this alone. Loving myself and believing I deserved support meant resourcing myself with a circle of beloved mentors, community relationships, and resources to be well held.
Have you ever felt deeply held? Seen, wanted, and loved, just as you truly are?
This unconditional love allows me to be who I truly am and I know this deep witnessing can do the same for you.
Let me be your witness.
My story
Growing up, I was surrounded by domestic violence and had no healthy models of love and intimacy. I grew up believing I would never have success, love, or wealth. Popular media shaped my perception of what it meant to be attractive and made me think I had to be rescued by Prince Charming. These co-dependent tendencies and skewed self-worth affected my ability to create and sustain emotional and financial stability.
From a very young age, these deep feelings of inadequacy led me to search for ways to heal myself. Since I was 15, I’ve studied healing modalities. I became a holistic health counselor in 2005, and after moving to New Mexico, I became a dedicated yoga practitioner and massage therapist. I’ve participated in many ceremonies and worked with plant medicines, and all along, I kept feeling the need to fix myself, because I truly felt broken.
