Margaux Underwood is a trauma-informed somatic sex educator, coach, and intimacy guide whose work centers the body as a source of practical, creative wisdom. She was trained through the Institute for the Study of Somatic Sex Education and is a registered member of the Somatic Sex Educators Association, where her practice is held to clear ethical standards around consent, touch, and client care.
Her path into this field grew from a steady, personal question: What becomes possible when people feel safe enough in their bodies to actually listen to themselves? Over seven years of study and hands-on experience, Margaux has explored how many struggles with intimacy—sexual and otherwise—are rooted in disconnection, overthinking, and a loss of embodied agency. Her approach is grounded, nervous-system aware, and deeply respectful of the real lives that shape her clients.
In private sessions and group programs, Margaux blends somatic awareness practices, consent-based touch education, breathwork, and relational tools to help people slow down, feel more, and make clearer choices from inside their bodies. She works with individuals across a wide range of identities, relationships, and experiences, creating inclusive spaces that welcome LGBTQ+, BIPOC, gender-diverse, disabled, and marginalized communities.
Margaux is known for creating containers that are warm but not coddling, structured but alive. She welcomes curiosity, treats discomfort as part of growth, and consistently returns people to their own authority. Her intention is simple and direct: to help people remember that pleasure, presence, and choice are not abstract ideals—they are skills that can be practiced.
