Cuddle therapy is more than comfort, it’s a space to feel safe, held, and fully human. In this blog, I explain how trauma-informed touch can support healing, nervous system regulation, and a deeper sense of connection.
Sometimes the deepest healing comes not just from being held but also from having our giving received with open arms. In this blog, I reflect on a client’s experience of mutual touch, and what it reveals about connection, appreciation, and desire.
Ever felt your body tense up even though you knew you were safe? You’re not alone. In this blog, I explore the difference between comfort, safety and why that distinction matters deeply in healing work like cuddle therapy.

Talk ttherapists acknowledge the power of touch, yet rarely refer clients to cuddle therapists. Why? Misconceptions, fear, and outdated training. It’s time for that to change.
