About Pallavi Barnwal
Sexuality Educator
My name is Pallavi Barnwal, and I am a sexuality educator and intimacy coach. I believe that sexuality and the relationship are interwoven, and in order to tackle our challenges in our relationships, we must also address our own selves.
After a decade as a management consultant, the glaring lack of awareness, education, and support around intimacy and sexuality inspired me to begin my journey as a sexuality educator. My goal has always been to help both couples and individuals free themselves from sexual shame and embrace and find joy in their sexuality. In my years of practice with over a thousand hours in intimacy coaching, I have helped hundreds of couples navigate their challenges by addressing their relationships, past trauma and family history, and equipping them with the relationship awareness tools and skills to improve their intimacy.
With multiple certifications and extensive training, I have been able to provide quality service for my clients from all over the globe. I often collaborate with mental health professionals, medical professionals, and sexologists to provide a holistic and well-rounded service to my clients. Some of my certifications include.
- Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST),Â
- Comprehensive Sexuality Education For Teachers and Educators (2018),Â
- NLP+MSP Diploma,Â
- Perinatal Lessons: Exploring Invitations for a Feminist Approach to Sexuality During Birth and Beyond (AASECT-approved),Â
- Desire and Attachment; Using Sex and Couples Therapy (AASECT-approved),Â
- Overcoming Desire Discrepancy and Increasing Honesty in Couples when One Partner has ADHD – And Lessons for All Couples (ISTI approved),Â
- Pornography and Masturbation (AASECT-approved).
My social media platform is yet another channel of service that I have undertaken. My pages, including Instagram, Youtube, and Quora, have amassed more than 5 million views combined. They have evolved into a diverse online community where people seek help, share stories, and come for advice. Our services, including seminars, talks, and short courses hosted by my team and I, have been met with overwhelmingly positive feedback and were featured in multiple features and newspaper articles.
At Get Intimacy, we believe that as long as you have the willingness to stay curious and learn, we can help you explore, examine and evolve from your intimacy and sexual issues. Do not wait anymore! Take your first step towards sexual liberation and recovery!
Go ahead and check out some of the resources we provide to help you get started on your journey to sexual wellness, such as access to expert help and free guides on a range of topics dealing with sexual and emotional health.
