How I work
Mindfulness Coaching, Embodied Counselling, and Bodywork.
My approach is rooted in mindfulness training, embodiment coaching, and somatic practice. By deepening awareness and compassion you will begin to foster greater connection with yourself and others – easing pain, expanding pleasure and supporting personal transformation.
Although non-linear, your time with me might include:
- working closely with the Autonomic Nervous System to cultivate embodied safety – the foundation for deep healing, learning and growth
- guided somatic inquiry to uncover insights, increase awareness and support integration
- releasing stuck patterns and accessing new pathways of being and relating
Sessions always centre your choice, intentions and boundaries. Before we begin, we’ll clarify your intentions and establish clear boundaries that are honoured throughout our sessions.
The simple yet powerful practices that I teach need only your body, empowering you with more choice and agency wherever you go. Sessions with me are trauma-informed, non-analytical, and non-pathologizing, focusing on integration and wholeness.
A note on trauma/PTSD:
Embodied Counselling sessions are an excellent complement to existing or past trauma therapy, particularly non-somatic approaches like CBT or psycho-analysis.
A note on ethics:
My services are bound by two strict ethical codes. The best way to find out which is the right avenue for you is to book a free consult.
Why see me?
Emotional Wellbeing
Life can feel overwhelming, confusing, or disconnected at times. I offer guidance to help you navigate emotional challenges, make sense of your experiences, and find clarity in decision-making. We work together to build resilience and restore balance.
Improving Relationships
Strong, secure relationships require skill. I teach essential tools like boundaries, consent, communication, self-regulation, and vulnerability to help clients foster deeper, more fulfilling connections. My approach is rooted in personal empowerment, compassion, and choice—drawing from Nonviolent Communication and non-carceral values to break free from cycles of conflict and drama.
Sex and Intimacy
I help clients deepen their connection to pleasure, sensation, and eroticism—whether in solo exploration or partnered intimacy. My work supports those facing challenges like loneliness, porn or sex addiction, early ejaculation etc. For others, it’s about expanding their sexual repertoire and discovering new realms of sensation. Through erotic play, mindfulness and somatic practice, you will discover greater pleasure, confidence, and arousal control.

About Me
My given name is Ant, and my chosen name is Tellurian (He/They). I’m a queer/gay human who values kindness, honesty, prudence and play in life and practice. Relationally I identify with the realm of solo-poly/relationship anarchy.
I’m most at home with bare feet on the earth – bushwalking, swimming nude, stretching in the morning sun. My life has been shaped by a rich tapestry of experiences, including nomadic travel, organic farming, military service, sex work, city living, and time in rural communes. I bring the depth of this multifaceted journey into my work.
For the past six years, I’ve worked in the adult industry, specialising in erotic bodywork. Through this work, combined with my experiences as a care-taker on a queer commune, I became deeply interested in how humans navigate relationships and co-create grace in their togetherness.
Skills and Qualifications
Embodied Counselling
Embodied Counselling integrates the somatic, emotional, and cognitive realms, using simple yet powerful tools—breath, touch, sound, movement, and awareness—to support personal growth.
Through this practice, you’ll gain deeper insight into your experience, strengthen your connection with yourself and others, and develop greater resilience in navigating life’s challenges. As your sense of agency expands, so does your ability to move through anxiety, stress, relational struggles, and feelings of stuckness or overwhelm.
This holistic approach meets you where you are, offering practical, body-based pathways to healing and transformation.
Sexological Bodywork
A safe, supportive space for adult sex education, open to all genders, sexualities, and bodies. Sessions are tailored to your needs, whether focused on resolving challenges or expanding your erotic potential.
Issue-Focused: Address concerns like early ejaculation, difficulty climaxing or porn addiction.
Goal-Oriented: Develop arousal control, heighten pleasure, and explore new dimensions of your sexuality.
All sessions follow a strict ethical code, with clear boundaries set before each appointment—ensuring a professional, respectful, and empowering experience.
Kahuna Massage
Rooted in the flowing, full-body tradition of Kahuna, this style of massage blends under-body strokes, static pressure, stretching, and breathwork to create a deeply immersive somatic experience.
Kahuna Massage is a holistic experience designed to ground the nervous system, awaken sensation, and promote deep relaxation. It supports increased blood flow, lymphatic drainage, and nerve cell communication. This style of heart-centred bodywork is the perfect compliment to somatic counselling.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does ‘working somatically’ look like? What happens in a session?
I always work with your Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) in mind. That is how we can co-create a lived experience of ‘safety’ from which to explore growth, change and connection. I empower clients to monitor their own ANS in ever more finite detail. I teach them how to intentionally regulate themselves in order to take more control over their experience of being in the world.
What does ‘somatic’ mean?
Somatic means ‘of the body’. It is synonymous with ’embodied’. Eg. Imagine learning how to ride a bicycle by reading a book about it. The easiest way to learn is to get on the bike and learn by doing (first with training wheels). That is embodied learning.
‘Embodiment’ also refers to the skill of being aware of one’s body. Have you ever found a small scratch or bruise on your body and you dont remember how it got there?
Can I bring my partner(s)?
Yes! I work with intimate couples and many other forms of relationship. Whether you want to explore new ways to access pleasure or solve an issue that’s causing some pain. Relationship counselling will usually involve sessions with each individual separately and also in the room together.
What happens in a session?
Once we have discerned your intention for the work we will embark on a series of somatic practices and inquiries. These will produce resources with which to move toward understanding, integration and change. This process might take place in one session or over a series of sessions.
What is ‘somatic practice’? What are ‘somatic inquiries’?
Somatice practice is how I teach embodied learning (see ‘What does ‘somatic’ mean?’). It is a practical exercice intended to foster change. Somatic practices require repetition in order to be effective long term.
Somatic inquiries are similar however they are intented to generate insight, even if that insight is ‘not much’. They are more likely to develop over time as more information is revealed.
Do sessions include touch?
Sessions may include non-erotic touch if it is useful is supporting our intentions for somatic processes (eg. placing our palms together to push gently against one another).
Erotic touch is available when it is useful for somatic processes. Erotic touch is always:
- consentual and negotiated prior to the session, never during.
- hygienic. Medical-grade gloves and cleaning processes are employed.
- one-way (ie. practitioner –> client). For mutual touch sessions, see here.
