You Can Touch Me Here with Kristin Hodson LCSW, CSTS

What if Hollywood had something to teach us about consent, boundaries, and the delicate dance of intimacy?

In You Can Touch Me Here, AASECT-certified sex therapist and supervisor Kristin Hodson pulls back the curtain on the groundbreaking world of intimacy coordination—an emerging field born from the #MeToo movement and formalized in 2018. After touring internationally with her daughter on Broadway, Kristin immersed herself in the consent-forward practices of intimacy professionals in film and theatre. What she discovered transformed how she approaches sex therapy.

This immersive training bridges the stage and the therapy room, showing how the 5 pillars of intimacy coordination can expand our therapeutic lens. From redefining what “counts” as intimacy, to moving beyond the FRIES model into the nuanced CRISP framework (Curious, Rich, Interpersonal, Situational, Practice), Kristin invites you to consider how we advocate for our clients’ voices, choices, and consent—especially in complex, high-demand situations.

Whether you work with individuals navigating sexual trauma, couples seeking deeper connection, or clients discovering their boundaries for the first time, this course offers practical, embodied tools to help you bring more clarity, safety, and intentionality into your work.

This training is for you if you want to:

  • Explore the intersections of performance, sexuality, and therapy

  • Learn fresh, consent-centered frameworks like CRISP

  • Strengthen your ability to support clients in defining their boundaries with confidence and care

Join Kristin Hodson and discover how directing intimacy on stage might just transform the way you help clients choreograph it off stage.
