Sex Education and Somatic Coaching
Welcome to Romance and Reality!
Romance and Reality connect the gaps found between mental health therapy and physical therapy to improve your quality of life.
We work collaboratively with established providers to holistically assist those recovering from anxiety, trauma, fear, and shame.
With our unique pleasure-centered approach, we can work together on achieving the communication and intimacy you desire to have in your relationship(s)!
In service to the community, we provide ethical, inclusive, and confidential care, with accessible options to fit every income.
I’m Bailey Barmettler, CSE, CSSE, CC, and I started Romance and Reality to let you know that sex doesn’t have to be a struggle!
“I highly recommend working with Bailey! She did such an amazing job making me feel comfortable and heard. Her insights about intimacy and communication with my partner were so helpful. She really wants to empower you to create the intimacy you dream of. This is a realm that often gets sidelined in relationships, but it’s so essential to address!” ~ Lisa & Joe

How We Address Them
Sessions are guided by the client’s self-defined sexual wellness goals and presenting somatic states.
Progress on these goals are generally experienced within 3-6 sessions.
With a safe and trustworthy guide on how to decipher the healing and harmful patterns stored within the body’s memory (soma), we can start addressing past impediments and begin rewiring the nervous system towards pleasure.
By accessing, embodying, and empowering the body’s authentic needs, wants, and desires, profound shifts can start to be made regarding how we connect intimately with others.
As a certified somatic sex educator and Cuddlist, I am able to offer the unique option of providing safe, healing, platonic touch as a tool for your learning and healing process!
Every touch offered would be 100% optional, client-directed (at the client’s pace), and require a clear expression of authentic consent before occurring.
One way we keep our services accessible and inclusive is to provide individual or bundled session rates, as well as, affordable virtual monthly group events!
