Next program start-date Sept 2026: THE CUDDLING MENTORSHIP PROGRAM. This program is offered to people who want to get into the exciting field of professional therapeutic cuddling. If you have a genuine love for helping others, are empathetic, and love touch message me for more info!

Safe, non-sexual, consensual touch fills a need that’s badly neglected in our society. Cuddling relaxes us and reduces stress at

the very least, and on a deeper level it nourishes our soul and satiates our need for healthy human connection.. Much like yoga

and meditation, non-sexual touch is healing and transformative.

​

Cuddle Therapy is more than giving hugs and snuggles—it requires empathy and compassion and requires setting boundaries and adhering to the client’s needs. As a Cuddle Me Close cuddle practitioner, you get to learn and practice a variety of skills, such as:

​

• Engaging in authentic communication.

• Help clients identify, and say "Yes" to their wants and needs.

• Saying "No" to things that things they do not want.

• Create healthy co-regulation through touch; which helps

• manage emotions and foster self-regulation skills

• Nurture, and offer affection, emotional connection and support
