Ezra Cake (they/them) is a trauma-informed Registered Psychotherapist with 14 years in practice, offering s*x therapy, gender affirming care, and support for the sometimes complicated business of living in a body. They work primarily with q***r, trans and gender diverse people. Much of Ez’s work begins with something that feels unwanted: a body that changes the plan, desire that doesn’t behave, or a way of protecting oneself that also gets in the way. Ez is curious about what happens when the stories we tell about ourselves meet what our bodies have learned—and what becomes possible when both receive our care.
Lilin (she/they) is a trauma-informed bodyworker, intimacy practitioner, and co-owner of the award winning, feminist s*x shop Come As You Are Co-operative. Nearing professional certification with the Institute for the Study of Somatic S*x Education, Lilin blends her extensive background in health and social services into her private practice. She brings seven years of experience as a former registered midwife and over fifteen years of supporting survivors of gender-based violence in social service agencies. Centered on the core values of safety, agency, sacred s*xuality, and joy, her practice operates at the intersection of birth work and s*x work, drawing on the somatic wisdom of both lineages to foster personal and collective healing.
