That’s where we come in!

Welcome to Rekindling Intimacy after Cancer 
Are you frustrated over the lack of resources available to help you create a satisfying sexual relationship after cancer treatment?

You’re not alone.

You can create a satisfying intimate relationship with the emotional connection and pleasure you desire.

This 4-week online program will help you reconnect with yourself and your partner.

I’m willing to give myself permission to be sexual again – in a body that may look and respond differently.
Let’s shift you out of a state of sexual disconnection, where you:
