K-12 Sex Education Lessons
Check out the Virtual Classroom for Youth!
Are you wanting to learn more about sexuality? Are you having a hard time talking to your child about their changing body? Perhaps you feel robbed of the sex education you feel like you should have gotten in school. Or maybe you want to explore a different side of sexuality and become educated on different topics.
I teach all ages from 5-years-old to adult level. There’s always something that can be learned. All my workshops and lessons are taught in a comprehensive, pleasure-based, consensual model. What does that mean? It means you won’t find an abstinence-only stance in my educational approach.
According to Planned Parenthood, pleasure-based education, “normalizes the idea of giving and receiving pleasure not just in sexual activity, but in relationships as a whole. When sex education is pleasure-based, students develop healthier relationships both with themselves and their partner, increasing their overall life satisfaction and happiness.” Learn more about the benefits of pleasure-based education here.
I use anatomically correct, diverse models and diagrams. Lessons can take place in a venue, in your home, educational setting, virtually, or wherever else you’d like to learn! Many of my school age students' parents have me come to their homes for a weekly/biweekly 1.5 hour lesson or a monthly 3-hour lesson. We will work together to figure out what works best with your school schedule.
Lessons include fun creative-based activities including:
cookie baking and decorating,
custom workbooks and coloring sheets,
games and obstacle courses,
art-making, model making, sculpting
virtual classrooms,
movies, reading, and more.
Take the awkward out of sex education and let’s make it fun and creative!

Let’s Talk About Consent
Consent is everywhere in our lives. Its within our sexuality, personal boundaries, everyday interactions, and more. Most of us have learned that “No means No,” but consent goes further than that. This lesson offers the opportunity to explore all aspects of consent, how to talk about consent, and how to move beyond the simple “yes” and “no.” This is useful for going about your daily life, entering new relationships, managing employees, interacting with superiors, and so many other interactions.
You will learn about the foundations of consent:
Capacity
Informed Consent
Agreement/Boundary Setting
Discovery & Autonomy
What to do when consent is violated

Parent Coaching
Need help talking about sex to your children? Get together a group of your parent friends and let’s talk about how to start conversations about sex with your children. These conversations can start as early as the toddler years with basics like consent (i.e. hugs, personal space) and correct names for their body parts. This can be done individually as well.
