Spirituality & Sacred Sexuality
An intimate AASECT group supervision experience for therapists and mental health professionals ready to deepen their practice at the intersection of sexuality, spirituality, and healing.
Join a closed cohort to grow, reflect, and expand your sacred presence in the therapy room.
Group supervision sessions are open to clinicians pursuing AASECT certification who are ready to integrate a decolonizing, feminist, intersectional, and sacred sexuality lens into their practice.
These sessions provide a supportive and enriching space to explore the intersection of spirituality, social justice, and embodied liberation with sexuality. Together, we cultivate a therapeutic presence rooted in integrity, cultural humility, and sacred awareness—supporting clinicians in offering healing that is both clinically sound and soulfully aligned.
Through collaborative inquiry, reflective dialogue, and experiential learning, participants will enhance their ability to effectively address the spiritual dimensions of human sexuality, honor diverse beliefs and values, and promote holistic well-being for individuals and couples seeking support in matters of sacred intimacy.
Program Vision & Intentions
The aim of this AASECT Group Supervision program focused on spirituality and sacred sexuality is to cultivate a supportive and enriching learning environment where sex therapy professionals and therapists-in-training can deepen their understanding, develop specialized skills, and explore the intersection of spirituality, sexuality, and therapeutic practice.
Through collaborative inquiry, reflective dialogue, and experiential learning, participants will enhance their ability to:
- Effectively address the spiritual dimensions of human sexuality
- Honor diverse cultural, religious, and spiritual beliefs
- Promote holistic well-being in individuals and couples seeking support for sacred intimacy, relational repair, or erotic empowerment
This group invites you to step into supervision as ritual, reflection, and revelation—where your professional development is also a personal evolution.
Our mission is to provide a transformative, soul-centered platform for AASECT-certified professionals and aspiring sex therapists to engage in meaningful supervision, ongoing professional development, and collaborative learning—all grounded in the integration of spirituality and sacred sexuality within clinical practice.
Rooted in ethical care, cultural humility, and client-centered values, this group supervision program fosters a brave and compassionate space for therapists to expand their capacity to hold complex stories, support sexual healing, and practice with greater authenticity and embodied presence.
Together, we cultivate a vibrant community of skilled practitioners who honor diverse spiritual and sexual expressions, challenge systems of oppression, and empower clients to reclaim pleasure, voice, and wholeness. Through our shared commitment to excellence, curiosity, and innovation, we aim to advance the field of sex therapy—one that is inclusive, holistic, and deeply human—in service to the individuals and communities we are privileged to support.
Grounded in:
- Ethical care
- Cultural humility
- Client-centered principles
We aim to foster a community of compassionate, skilled, and spiritually attuned practitioners equipped to:
- Navigate the complexities of religion, spiritual trauma, sexual shame, and liberation
- Empower clients to reconnect with their bodies, values, and desires
- Uphold integrity, cultural sensitivity, and respect in all aspects of sex therapy
Through our shared commitment to excellence and innovation, we aspire to advance the field of sex therapy by embracing diverse perspectives, decolonizing therapeutic norms, and cultivating a spirit of curiosity and discovery in service to individuals, couples, and communities.
A Closed Cohort for Deeper Connection and Learning
This AASECT group supervision offering is structured as a closed cohort, meaning the same group of professionals will journey together throughout the supervision cycle. This format is intentional—it allows for trust to grow, relationships to deepen, and learning to build over time.
In a closed group, we can:
- Develop a sense of continuity and safety, which is essential when exploring vulnerable themes like spirituality, sexuality, and professional identity
- Move beyond surface-level conversation into deeper layers of integration, embodiment, and personal growth.
- Support each member’s evolution with more intimate feedback, shared insight, and communal wisdo.m
- Create a sacred, consistent space where supervision becomes not just a requirement—but a transformational experience.
By committing to the group, you become part of a supportive and inspired community of peers who will walk alongside you as you explore sacred sexuality, navigate complex cases, and expand your capacity as a therapist or coach.
This is more than supervision—it’s a circle of healing, reflection, and professional growth and development.
Core Frameworks & Approaches You’ll Experience
This group supervision is both efficient and richly soulful, drawing from a range of interdisciplinary, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive frameworks that honor the full spectrum of human sexuality and spirituality.
The 4-D Wheel Approach
Rooted in the work of Gina Ogden and expanded through Jacqueline’s lived and clinical experience, this holistic model invites practitioners to explore sexuality through the integration of:
- Body, Mind, Heart, and Spirit
- Encourages somatic awareness, emotional intelligence, cognitive clarity, and spiritual depth
- Moves beyond pathology to uncover stories of resilience, pleasure, and meaning
Somatic Sex Therapy & Body-Based Healing
Somatic approaches are foundational in this group, offering tools to:
- Understand how the body holds trauma, memory, and erotic energy
- Help clients regulate the nervous system, expand their capacity for sensation, and reconnect to pleasure
- Guide practitioners to stay grounded, attuned, and embodied while holding space
Sacred Sexuality & Tantric Foundations
We approach sacred sexuality with reverence and discernment, drawing from teachings such as:
- Tantra-inspired practices (non-dogmatic and trauma-sensitive) that explore presence, polarity, and divine union
- Breathwork, energy movement, and intention-setting to open pathways for deeper erotic connection and spiritual alignment
- The role of ritual, archetypes, and spiritual eroticism in therapeutic settings
Trauma-Focused & Spiritually-Inclusive Frameworks
This supervision group is trauma-informed and mindful of the spiritual wounding many clients carry, particularly those shaped by:
- Religious trauma, purity culture, or spiritual abuse
- Racial, ancestral, and intergenerational trauma
- Shame-based messages around desire, gender roles, and sexual orientation
You’ll gain tools to safely support clients through deconstruction and healing, while holding space for emergent spirituality, body sovereignty, and erotic restoration.
Culturally Responsive & Decolonizing Approaches
We explore how colonialism, patriarchy, and capitalism have distorted sexuality and spirituality, and how we, as professionals, can:
- Center ancestral wisdom, especially from BIPOC, queer, and indigenous traditions
- Name and challenge systems of oppression that show up in the therapeutic room
- Reclaim pleasure, eros, and intimacy as sacred rights and healing forces
Reflective Practice, Ritual, and Integration
Sessions include time for:
- Case consultation and clinical guidance
- Embodied practices and rituals to anchor learning
- Peer support, sacred witnessing, and shared growth
You’ll Walk Away With:
- A deeper ability to ethically and confidently integrate spirituality into your clinical or coaching practice
- A toolkit of somatic, sacred, and relational interventions
- A strengthened understanding of how spirituality and sexuality intersect in your clients’ lives
- The language and presence to hold space for religious and erotic healing
- Fulfilled AASECT supervision hours (or CES if supervision hours are needed) in a community of like-hearted professionals
🌿 Who This Group Is For
This group supervision experience is designed for therapists, counselors, and healing professionals who are ready to bring spirituality, sacred sexuality, and social justice into the heart of their clinical or coaching work.
You’ll feel at home in this group if you are:
- Pursuing AASECT Certification as a Sex Therapist and seeking meaningful, integrative supervision hours (Note: If you do not require AASECT Supervision hours, you may earn AASECT CES)
- A therapist or coach longing to explore how spirituality and sexuality intersect in both your personal and professional path
- Working with clients impacted by religious shame, spiritual trauma, or purity culture, and want tools to navigate those dynamics with care
- Interested in integrating a decolonizing, feminist, and intersectional lens into your work with individuals, couples, and communities
- Curious about sacred sexuality, somatic practices, and holistic healing—and how they can be ethically woven into therapy
- Seeking a closed, intimate cohort that honors depth, reflection, and shared learning over time
- A BIPOC or LGBTQ+ clinician desiring supervision that affirms your identity and centers cultural wisdom
This group welcomes clinicians of all faiths, lineages, and lived experiences who are committed to professional excellence, embodied growth, and sacred service.
🚫 Who This Supervision Group Is Not For
While this AASECT Group Supervision experience is intentionally inclusive, holistic, and spiritually grounded, it may not be the right fit for everyone. In the spirit of clarity and alignment, this group may not be for you if:
- You are seeking drop-in or open-ended supervision without a commitment to a closed cohort
- You prefer a strictly medical-model or diagnosis-driven approach to sex therapy without integrating somatic, spiritual, or relational perspectives.
- You are uncomfortable exploring the intersections of spirituality, sexuality, and culture, or prefer to keep therapy strictly cognitive or behavioral.
- You are not open to reflecting on your own relationship to sexuality, power, faith, or embodied presence.
- You are looking for general clinical supervision unrelated to AASECT certification, sex therapy, or sacred sexuality.
- You are unable to commit to regular group attendance, which is essential for maintaining group trust, safety, and continuity.
This group holds space for complexity, nuance, and growth—and while we welcome practitioners at all levels of spiritual and sexual exploration, we ask that participants approach the work with curiosity, humility, and respect for themselves and one another.
Please note that completing and receiving supervision hours or CES does not guarantee AASECT Certification.

Jacqueline, a dedicated practitioner, utilizes an integrative approach to sex therapy, recognizing sex as sacred and individualized. Holding a Master’s Degree in Spiritual Psychology, her practice is imbued with spiritual and holistic perspectives, emphasizing the uniqueness of each person’s sexuality. Her methodology integrates ancestral rituals, including Gina Ogden’s 4-D approach, alongside a commitment to decolonizing, feminist, anti-racist, and intersectional principles.
As an advocate for embodied healing, Jacqueline has presented at the annual AASECT Conference on the transformative use of movement and embodiment practices in sex therapy. She focuses on facilitating clients (and supervisees) to achieve deeper integration of body, heart, mind, and spirit.
Jacqueline views the journey of becoming a sex therapist as profoundly personal, one that not only equips practitioners to support client growth but also fosters personal healing and expansion across multiple dimensions.
Jacqueline’s exploration and study of sacred somatic/embodied practices constitute a pivotal aspect of her practice and personal journey. Embracing Tantra’s rich philosophical and experiential traditions, she delves into its teachings with a profound reverence for its holistic approach to human sexuality and spirituality. By integrating tantric principles into her work, she fosters a deeper understanding of intimacy, embodiment, and connection, recognizing the transformative power of tantra in facilitating profound healing and self-discovery for herself and her clients.
My Approach
My continued growth and commitment in anti-racist and de-colonial therapeutic practices influences my work and mentoring with supervisees.
I motivate my supervisees to participate within our professional communities and to be a support network for each other.
I encourage my supervisees to learn and grow from countertransferece as it appears naturally in a therapeutic space.
I help supervisees create a sacred space for their own journey as a sex therapist because as sex therapists we are help by bringing light to the dark places and compassion to the tender parts.
As a dedicated student of tantra and other sacred sexuality practices, I approach my journey with a profound sense of reverence and commitment. Through study and introspection, I have embarked on a transformative exploration of the intricate interplay between spirituality, sexuality, and somatic/embodiment.
Guided by respected mentors, such as Michaela Boehm, and ancient teachings, I have delved into the depths of tantric philosophy, meditation, and embodied practices, seeking to cultivate a holistic understanding of human intimacy and connection.
This pursuit has not only deepened my personal growth but has also enriched my professional practice, empowering me to support others in navigating their own paths towards self-discovery and sexual liberation. With humility and gratitude, I embrace the privilege of walking this sacred path, continuously learning and evolving as both a student and a facilitator of sacred sexuality.
Seeing the lack of Latinx and other BIPOC representation within AASECT propelled me to become an AASECT Sex Therapy Supervisor. Today, I supervise mental health clinicians across the USA seeking AASECT Certification, consult nationally on sexual health issues on various media outlets, and own a group practice specializing in relationships and sex therapy that supports BIPOC folx learn about sex therapy as well as a sex coaching practice that is launching soon.
Supervision Values
The Person of the Therapist Training Model presents a model that prepares therapists to make active and purposeful use of who they are, personally and professionally, in all aspects of the therapeutic process—relationship, assessment, and intervention. Conscious and planned use of a therapist’s race, gender, culture, values, life experience, and in particular, personal vulnerabilities and struggles in how they relate to and help clients.
Clinical supervision can then emphasize the purposeful utilization of self-in the moment—both flaws and strengths—in the therapeutic relationship in combination with the technical interventions with clients.
Intersectionality is a concept for understanding the ways that multiple forms of inequality or disadvantage compound themselves and create obstacles that often are not understood among conventional ways of thinking. Inclusion is critical to the field of sexuality so that sexual minorities, marginalized folx, non-English speakers, and those of various cultures can receive good and knowledgeable sex therapy and support.
Equality is about the fair treatment of everyone seeking mental and sexual health.
Equity creates equal possible outcomes for everyone because, despite effort and merit, people can experience substantial barriers in obtaining mental and sexual health.
Diversity is all the ways in which people differ from one another. This can include race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, socioeconomic status, veteran status, education, marital status, language, age, gender, gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation, mental or physical ability, and learning styles
Inclusion is the culture in which the mix of people can feel comfortable and confident to be themselves and seek support in a way that aligns with who they are. Having sex therapists that also reflect the population they are serving is also essential.
Some of the most fundamental understanding of the human condition emerges from the Western understanding of what is considered healthy, normal, and acceptable. The decolonizing perspective calls for action toward social change, inclusion, and validation of the lived experiences of indigenous populations, people of color, and the economically disadvantaged, among others.
As part of the AASECT Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) committee, I support the organization’s growth in this area. Being part of this committee also supports my commitment to greater inclusion, equity, and representation. Learn more about me or other supervisory offerings.
I teach my supervisees to address the whole person not just the presenting problem. This includes a person’s physical, emotional, mental, social, and spiritual well-being. Addressing the whole person in body-mind-heart-spirit can bring out the healthiest, happiest version of ourselves and heal. It also supports clients not to focus only performance and function, and see the whole of their sex and sexuality narrative.
I have presented at various AASECT Conferences about the importance of embodiment techniques, to get clients back in their bodies rather than keeping them sitting while exploring thoughts and feelings. Embodiment or body-focused processes assist our clients in creating a different experience in the moment. Supervisees are guided through different processes to help them connect to their own bodies.I have presented at various AASECT Conferences about the importance of embodiment techniques, to get clients back in their bodies rather than keeping them sitting while exploring thoughts and feelings.
