INTIMACY + RELATIONSHIP
Welcome,
I'm Jules -
Intimacy & Relationship Therapist.
I help individuals and long-term couples go from emotional flatlines and 'roommate mode' back to craving each other again.
Let' help you stay in love, in sync, and deeply turned on to each other for the long haul.
I’m a trauma-informed Counsellor, Naturopath, mother of four, author and co-founder of the Nourishing the Mother podcast.
What I help with:
✔️ Emotional disconnection, resentment, and ‘roommate mode’ in long-term love
✔️ Mismatched or low libido, sexual shutdown, or feeling “touched out”
✔️ Navigating post-baby identity shifts, body image, and loss of sensuality
✔️ The emotional and relational toll of prolapse, pain, and birth trauma on women, sex, and intimacy
✔️ Over-functioning, mental load, and the burnout that blocks intimacy
✔️ Difficulty softening, receiving, and feeling safe in pleasure
✔️ Trauma recovery, nervous system repair, and building relational safety
✔️ Reigniting passion and desire in partnerships that still have love
✔️ Communication breakdowns and unmet needs in parenting partnerships
✔️ Learning how to feel again — in the body, in the bedroom, and in love
✔️ Balancing masculine and feminine energy to restore polarity, presence, and flow in your relationship
WHO I HELP
COUPLES
WOMEN
From Roomates to Real Connection
You still love each other — but it feels like something’s missing.
The intimacy. The passion. The feeling.
You’ve become great teammates, co-parents, housemates…
But lovers? Not so much.
Good sex feels like a distant memory. Every conversation seems to spiral into miscommunication. Resentment has started to build, and the emotional distance feels harder and harder to close.
But love isn’t the issue.
The issue is how you’ve been trying to hold it all together — without the tools to stay close, erotic, and emotionally fed.
I help couples move out of survival mode and back into connection — with intimacy, desire, playfulness, and presence as the foundation.
Together, we shift the stuck dynamics — the shutdowns, the blow-ups, the invisible pressure — and bring you back to a relationship that feels good to be in.
Because you're not meant to live as roommates with rings.
You’re meant to be lovers who can feel each other — emotionally, energetically, and erotically.
From Hardness to Softness.
From Shutdown to Sensual.
You’re carrying so much — and you’re tired.
You’ve been the one holding it together, holding everyone else, and pushing your own needs aside.
Maybe you’re in a relationship.
Maybe you’ve left one.
Maybe you’re finding your way back to yourself after betrayal, heartbreak, or years of giving too much.
I work with women who feel disconnected from their bodies, their feminine, and their desire — women who’ve been stuck in survival mode for so long, they’ve forgotten what it feels like to want, to receive, to soften.
This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about remembering who you are beneath the roles, the rules, and the exhaustion.
Coming back to your body, your boundaries, your feminine energy, and your sensuality — without shame.
Because whether you’re partnered or not, the most important relationship you’ll ever have…is the one you have with you.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"I have an understanding now of femme and masc energy and an awareness of when I’m in each and how it feels. My husband and I have begun being intimate again after a year of only very sporadic (and forced) encounters. I am appreciating his masc and what he provides for our family. He is responding with more caring behaviour like making me coffee, buying me wine. I have so much hope for our marriage now. I also have so much hope that the man I married will have room to become the man he was always meant to be, without the build up of tension, low self esteem etc. I dance almost every day. I breath deep and use my sound every day. And so much more!!!"
Sophie
"I had one foot out of our marriage, looking for reasons to leave. Now I have both feet in and I’m looking for the beauty every day."
Sally
"Working with Julie has changed our marriage, how I parent and how I understand myself. It's an ongoing journey but Julie's support and wisdom is life changing in ways that we didn't even know were possible."
Hayley
"Julie is so good!! I can't put into words the learnings and shifts I have felt in me and my partner. I know that "everything" is a strong word but it feels like it has changed everything for me. Not just in my romantic life but with friends, family also. I feel more at ease, more joy and more trust in my life. I no longer feel so anxious, controlling or needing to fix shit. Its magic and its such joy to learn about. its a real "coming home". I loved it all and just want more...life feels and is better, I can't wait to continue on this path..."

Mission Statement
I’m here to change how women and couples experience love, intimacy, and connection—because when relationships thrive, so do families and communities. I help women reclaim their sexuality as a source of power and self-trust, not shame or obligation, and fully inhabit their bodies and their lives. This work is about creating relationships that feel safe, nourishing, and alive—where love becomes a place we rise from.
Inclusivity & Belonging Statement
This is a space where your identity is not just accepted — it is honoured.
Whether you're LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, or part of a marginalised community — you are safe, seen, and deeply valued here.
Love, intimacy, and connection are your birthright.
I work through a trauma-informed, neuroaffirming, and LGBTQ+ inclusive lens, with a deep commitment to listening, learning, and unlearning — so this space stays brave, welcoming, and real.
I understand that the world hasn’t always made you feel safe to be fully seen.
This space is different.
Here, you get to come home to yourself — without apology.
*While my work is created by and for women — and often uses language that reflects female anatomy and lived female experience — this space is open to anyone who feels a resonance. That includes trans women, non-binary people, and gender-diverse folk. If this work speaks to you, you are welcome here.
I also frequently speak to heterosexual relationship dynamics, as this reflects the reality of most of the women and couples I support — and mirrors my own lived experience. That said, I identify as queer and hold deep respect and inclusion for all relationship structures and identities.
