About Me

My name is Tatiana. I offer tantric massage and somatic sex therapy for individuals and couples in Teesside, London and online. My work supports relaxation, pleasure, intimacy and sexual wellbeing, and is always held with care, clarity and consent.

My practice sits across two connected pathways. Tantric massage focuses on pleasure, relaxation and embodied presence through conscious touch. Somatic sex therapy offers a more therapeutic approach for those experiencing sexual, emotional or relational difficulties. Some people come primarily for one pathway, while others move between both over time.

Across all sessions, I work slowly and responsively, prioritising safety, pacing and clear communication.

Tantric Massage

Tantric massage supports relaxation, pleasure and a deeper connection with the body.

This work may support:

  • Deep relaxation
  • Expanding capacity for pleasure
  • Reconnecting with bodily sensation
  • Moving sexual energy through the body
  • Working with breath and awareness

Sessions can be tailored for men, women or couples, depending on your intentions and experience.
For men, this may include learning to separate orgasm from ejaculation and exploring arousal in a less performance-driven way. For women, the focus often involves slowing down, awakening sensuality and releasing tension. For couples, tantric massage can support intimacy, conscious touch and shared pleasure.

Somatic Sex Therapy

Somatic sex therapy offers a therapeutic pathway for working with sexuality, intimacy and the nervous system.

This work may support:

  • Blocks to pleasure or arousal
  • Sexual dysfunction or pain
  • Sexual shame or body image concerns
  • Trauma or difficult past experiences
  • Relationship or intimacy challenges

Sessions may include body-based approaches such as boundaries and consent work, breath, de-armouring and therapeutic touch, where appropriate and by clear consent.

Sessions are adapted for individuals and couples of all genders. With men, the work may explore performance anxiety, erectile or ejaculatory difficulties and disconnection from sensation. With women, it often supports low desire, pelvic tension, or difficulty feeling pleasure or reaching orgasm. With couples, somatic sex therapy can help address mismatched desire, communication difficulties and long-held relational patterns.

Sessions may be clothes-on or clothes-off, depending on what feels appropriate and supportive, and are always guided by consent and careful pacing.

Online Work & Supporting Therapies

For those who prefer to work online, are not ready for hands-on work, or want additional tools for integration, I offer online sessions and supporting therapies.

Online work may include:

  • Intimacy coaching and guided embodiment practices
  • Breath and awareness exercises
  • Talk therapy for emotional processing and integration
  • TRE® (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) for nervous system regulation

Sessions are offered in Teesside (TS13) and London (NW2), with online sessions available.

Prices range from £80–£425, depending on session type and length.

  • Tatiana has something magical about her. If, like me, it takes a little time to relax and really feel her energy and being, its worth taking that time. She has many depths and will journey with you somewhere deep. I suggest you book a session and see for yourself

  • The work was very good. Upon reflection now, a few days after the massage the level of professionalism becomes clearer. Each detail of the massage is explained before commencement and this helps to create an environment of trust and compassion. Throughout the session I felt fully involved in a healing process.

    Julija, London
  • Tatiana is an amazing human being and a compassionate, caring and extremely skilled professional body worker. The massage she offered me was one of the best I have ever received, and I had quite a few over the years. I had several very intense emotional moments during the session. Tatiana was simply amazing at holding the space, feeling my energy, opening up to meet my emotions and feeling exactly what I needed in each moment. I was astonished by how profoundly and beautifully she was able to do all that. I wholeheartedly recommend Tatiana to anyone wanting to experience a deep, connected, aware and fully present massage.

  • Tatiana is the most skillful practitioner I have ever known. She holds the space with such care, compassion and safety that it allows whatever needs to come up to come up. Tatiana can hold really challenging emotions with such skill, and the safety that you need, coupled with such profound gentleness and compassion. Tatiana is an immense gift to the world, and to me and I have found the work she does so deeply healing and nourishing. I wish I had worked with Tatiana years ago!

  • Tatiana is totally welcoming and professional. She explains everything before the treatment and invites questions. The space is quiet and has such a beautiful atmosphere. I highly recommend Tatiana as a tantric massage practitioner.

    Andrew
  • Tatiana is a brilliant, skilful practitioner. She is the most caring and compassionate person I have ever worked with and her skills were so intuitive, loving and holding. The space Tatiana held was so safe it enabled me to be fully seen for the first time in my life, and allowed me to release pain and deep trauma that I have been holding all my life and all the time she held a loving, safe and giving space. Tatiana was such a skilled guide, helping me to process really
    deep things and giving me permission, guidance and reassurance all the way though, which now have given me a map for in areas of challenge, and a knowing how to handle things in this area.

  • Tatiana is a great therapist, caring, compassionate and a great bodyworker

  • The session with Tatiana Aitken has given me so much! Being sexologist, I thought I knew a lot about my sexuality, I knew it would be a pleasure, but I didn't know the session would have such a healing effect. Thanks to her caring attitude, aware and very focused on the present moment eyes and confident body, I could feel very safe from the very beginning of the session. I appreciated very much the detailed talk at the beginning of the session - I could share my most important needs, what led me to work on them afterwards. Overall, since the session, I have been feeling definitely more liberated, more true and connected to myself. I feel I have more right to be myself (which wasn't the case before the session). I am very much grateful I could benefit from Tatiana's loving attitude and very professional skills.

Healing trauma with touch

As practitioners, when we touch the body we touch the trauma. This is because strong emotions associated with trauma can become locked into the muscles and other soft tissues in the body. This creates what is known as ‘armour’ – literally physical tensions that correspond to the way we h[...]
