I've been a Cuddlist since 2017, and I bring deep wisdom, expertise, and loving kindness to each session! I've helped hundreds of clients experience joy, clarity, and aliveness in their bodies-- and find relief from stress, loneliness, blocks to intimacy, or painful looping patterns. I customize each session to fit the person's unique needs, and I love using my creative mind, open heart, and soft warm body to hold space during cuddle sessions, touch therapy, and Somatic Therapeutic Coaching. I bring a BIG toolbox to every session-- our time can include...

Authentic connection & emotional intimacy

Healing past wounds & dissolving blocks to closeness

Other practices for big joy, deep connection, and lasting fulfillment. 

Whatever YOU most want or need in the moment is what we’ll share in our session; it’s a create-your-own experience and you can always change your mind!

I'm genderqueer & neurovariant, and I work to create a profoundly welcoming space for humans of all shapes, colors, cultures, abilities, genders, neurologies, sexualities, ages (above 18), and backgrounds.  I'm also the founder & director of the Interfusion Festival Consent Program.

Unfortunately COVID-19 is still a thing. So in order to protect myself and others: I'm up to date on COVID-19 and flu vaccinations, and I only schedule in person with people who are also up to date on vaccination for COVID-19, or are willing to antigen test prior to each session. 
  
Although mainstream society treats vulnerability and authenticity as weakness, I invite you to be Real. I invite you to be silly, anxious, playful, awkward, joyful, or sad. I invite you to be all of YOU- whoever or whatever that may be. You can bring any feeling, request, or concern, and we’ll find the best way to be with what is, in service of whatever you most desire. Touch or cuddles are always on the table, and never ever required!
  
At the end of our session, my number one aim is for you to walk away feeling in-the-moment, rejuvenated,  and accepted. I want you to feel safer in your body, and safer to feel. And I want you to experience the transformative power of nurturing connection, touch-at-your-own-pace, and caring presence.

I attend out-calls and host in-calls in a comfortable indoor space with warm lighting. Just as each client is unique, each in person session will look and proceed differently. Within our safe container, you have the opportunity to…
  
  - Share authentic, platonic, intimate connection
  
  - Gently heal past wounds and relational blocks
  
  - Expand your capacity for joy & intimacy
  
  - Practice skills for fulfilling relationships with yourself and others
  
  - Touch, Explore, Play, and Just BE!
  
  Whatever a session looks like, you will enjoy a space free of judgment, obligation, or demands. Whether you'd prefer a path of relaxation and consensual intimacy OR  targeted exercises for healing and transformation-- in our space, all of you is welcome exactly as you are. In every moment.

  CLIENT REVIEWS
  
  “I have felt incredible since (our session). Flashes and remembrances of sharing bring a smile to my face and a sense of overall comfort and calm. I’m finding that I look at things differently than I ever have before, but in a very good way. Words fall so short. You can count on (a) session request again as soon as possible. You are amazing.” - David J.
  
  “I don’t often write reviews, but my 2 sessions have been really wonderful. Indigo creates such an open, warm and accepting space, with gentleness that allows me to relax and not be afraid. Suggestions for ways to be more comfortable and with great skin contact were spot-on. I felt so free that I was able to be brave in the next session and experiment with music and touch…my version of contact improv. It was so fun and I felt such joy doing it. Role-playing consent and boundary situations has been really helpful, as well as some communication tips. Many thanks Indigo! I’ll be returning regularly.” - Lia Ramos
  
  “If you’re looking for a touch therapist, look no further! I don’t believe there is anyone that Indigo can’t help/support, if they’re looking for help that is. They are truly a beautiful soul. No words can describe how I feel after a session with Indigo. My mind goes quiet and I can look into myself, calmly, and figure stuff out. Time slows and I can allow my thoughts to occur as they wish. It’s almost too good to be true. I’m more myself after every session. I honestly feel like I’m in kindergarten again (I’m free to be who I am rather than who I feel I’m supposed to be) only I can self-reflect now, with some guidance from Indigo ofc. Ecstatic to have found such a friendly/loving space for myself. Happy to be a regular! Always start with the meditation! I’m at the point where I can hear their voice every time I try to and it really helps put me in that relaxed state-of-mind.” - Aziz A.
