Consensual platonic touch is a basic human need, for connection and community, and to combat loneliness and isolation. I offer group and one-to-one sessions in Brighton & Hove for people to experience the benefits of touch and cuddles: wellbeing, openheartedness and a sense of belonging. The sessions are structured and gentle, giving your nervous system time to regulate, and bringing that lovely warm feeling of relaxation and trust. I am a highly experienced cuddler and groupwork facilitator who has worked in therapeutic settings for many years. My approach is responsive, kind, and sensitive. I work with adults of all ages and backgrounds. I am neurodivergent and specialise in working with people who are also neurodivergent, queer and/or disabled.

Hi, I’m Claire. Based between Winchester and Eastleigh, I am pleased to welcome you to my cuddle therapist profile. I'm a very empathic person, approachable, and caring.  As well as a qualified cuddle therapist, I'm also a qualified massage therapist. I can incorporate massage techniques into your sessions, if you wish. This can be very beneficial when introduced into a session. Massage isn't for everyone, and it doesn't have to be included, it's always completely up to my clients and how they feel at the time.  I'm very experienced with Autism, ADHD, Sensory Processing Disorder, Hypersensitivity,  mental health and associated anxieties. I have worked with people with dementia and bi-polar and I am experienced with emetophobia (the fear of being sick and association).  I fully appreciate there are many people who are deprived of touch and may be experiencing feelings of loneliness. We all crave platonic cuddles and affection. Sometimes we just would like someone to listen whilst we talk. We all come from different backgrounds, we all have different experiences and have been through different trials and tribulations. I am non-judgemental. I tailor each session to each individual client - we are all unique and we all require different support systems. Whether you need a cuddle, someone to listen or a hand to hold, I look forward to welcoming you to my cuddle therapy sessions. The most important aspect is that my clients feel comfortable enough with me to communicate and enjoy our sessions together. If you would like to discuss the benefits that cuddle therapy could have for you, or ask any questions, please don’t hesitate contact me.

Hello, my name is Elizabeth and in addition to being a professional Cuddle Therapist I am also an experienced Complementary Massage Therapist and Reiki Master. Ever since I was a young girl, all I wanted to do was to help others. This led me on my own personal journey of spirituality, consciousness, and self-expansion, where I discovered complementary therapy and witnessed first-hand the many benefits that the correct intention, combined with a loving, heart led and compassionate touch could offer, not only to myself, but to others also. Our modern society can be touch deprived and this combined with the pressures of balancing work and family commitments mean that being able to find that sense of inner peace and acceptance is now more important than ever before. Your session with me will always be in a safe and non-judgemental space, working within mutual boundaries and consent where you can just be who you want to be with no agenda or expectations. The sessions are at a pace that feels right for you, whether that is simply having a chat with no contact, holding hands whilst doing something you enjoy, having a foot rub or having a cuddle that is your personal choice. Every session is tailor made for your individual needs, to enable you rediscover and reconnect with yourself once again. I look forward to meeting you very soon. Elizabeth x

Hello, I am Ani, a certified and fully insured professional Cuddle Therapist. I am a very compassionate, caring, understanding and positive person. I became a professional cuddler because I saw the need so many people have for close human contact, someone to listen to them without judgment, and make them realize that they matter. Everyone deserves affection, touch and acceptance, and for me there are no exceptions for that. I offer a safe space for you to be you, in your most authentic and comfortable way. Join me and dive into an experience, which will leave you feeling deeply relaxed and more at peace than you’ve ever been

Hey, I am Kelly Shivani Rose; a healer, soul guide and cuddle professional. I am devoted to the practice of unconditional love, and I am truly in awe of the healing, the release and the transformation this practice has bought myself and others. One of the ways in which I practice unconditional love is by offering conscious, attentive touch to my clients. During the cuddle sessions I will support you to bring your focus into your body, to listen deeply to your body’s needs and boundaries, and then to gain confidence with expressing them. I hold a loving, safe space for my clients to relax and receive.  The sessions are led by your comfort levels and the touch can be anything from a hand massage, to sitting shoulder to shoulder, to a full body cuddle. Whatever level of touch you require, I will hold you with a warm, loving embrace, exactly as you are and as you need to be.  I have been devoted to my own personal growth for many years now, and I have deeply explored the inner and outer realms from a place of open-heartedness and non-judgement. And it’s for this reason I feel I am very relatable and have insights into the many challenges that people can face. It means I can create and hold a safe space where all parts of you are welcome.  Many people, for various reasons, are considered to be touch-deprived so I am honoured to offer this practice. Attentive touch has been shown to greatly improve physical, mental and emotional well-being, so if you would like to experience it’s benefit then please get in touch.  I am based in Frome, Somerset but I can travel to Bristol or Bath if costs are covered.

I’m Sarah. I practice ethical touch and cuddle therapy in accordance with the Cuddle Professionals International Diploma. I am a warm, open person who believes in the therapeutic power of touch, as has become especially evident in our recent COVID times.
If you are anxious, lonely, sad, bereaved, ill, depressed or just a little low; the hormones released during therapeutic touch can help you to better cope with life, and thrive.  I provide a safe space to listen to how you are or what is going on in your life in a friendly way. We agree which form of touch suits you best, it might just be a resting of arms, rather than proper bear hug. You need to feel comfortable. Each session is bespoke to your needs. Please feel free to contact me for further information.

Compassionate, platonic touch has always been an important part of my life, though there have been periods where that has seriously been lacking. I have also experienced the profound effect that a sincere and nurturing hug can have on a person - it can be truly transformational.  As well as being a Cuddle Therapist I'm also a Meditation and Laughter Yoga Teacher, and an End of Life Doula. I have a background in hospice work which highlighted the immense need of the physical intimacy of a hand-hold and a hug. It's a wonderful way of showing someone that they are not alone - that they matter. Both compassionate, platonic touch and laughter bring a deep sense of healing and connection.  Whether you prefer platonic touch or a cuddle with chatter or in quiet contemplation is purely a personal choice. Each and every session is tailored to your specific needs.

Hello, I’m Mel. Due to my affectionate, maternal nature and my interest in mental health, the healing power of touch and platonic intimacy, I decided to become a Cuddle Therapy professional. I have completed courses in mental health and counselling skills and I have a positive outlook on life with a love of meeting new people.  Touch is a basic human need and unfortunately some of us, for whatever reason, just don’t get enough of it. We all want to feel like we belong but we don’t want to diminish authentic selves in order to “fit in”.   I can offer you platonic touch sessions in a safe space, no matter your gender, race, shape, size, sexual orientation or mobility issues. I want to provide an empathetic ear for you to share your worries without judgement, whilst receiving 100% of my attention, affection, compassion and reassuring physical contact. All while practicing consent and respecting personal boundaries. Everyone deserves to be held, nurtured and appreciated for who they truly are. The mental and physical health benefits of which are innumerable. If you’re interested or have questions please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Hi there.  I am Marianna, here to support you, help you connect back to yourself and to another human being, and to build trust and confidence in you. I’ll help you regulate your nervous system in order to feel safe within yourself when in an uncomfortable situation, and perform better at work. You’ll relax and de-stress on such a level that might not be possible all by yourself. In my safe environment there’s no judgment or criticism so you can just be you without having to do or even say anything and still feel seen, heard and accepted. Cuddle therapy is so much more than just a cuddle. It is a co-creation between two people, and it can be a deep connection between the masculine and the feminine resulting in healing old emotional wounds. We practice boundaries and consent, plus communication is important, helping me to tailor every session individually for you. Physical touch is crucial for our well-being, and together we activate our bodies’ natural healing properties. Not to mention that it is one of the five languages, the one without which life cannot be enjoyed. Come and have a cuddle with me and feel loved the way you have never felt before.  Check out my website if you’d like to know more about me and my approach to cuddle therapy. I have different types of services depending on your needs. If you already like what you see, get in touch

I'm a a trained and certified member of Cuddle Professionals International.  I’ve spent all my life working with people, either out in the community or in hospitals. I am trained as a nurse and have an NVQ2 in health and social care in the UK.  I’ve always been a “hugger” and a positive and kind person who loves meeting new people. I am a great listener and can offer you support, understanding and a shoulder to cry on, or alternatively we can laugh and joke and just enjoy each other’s company. My goal is for you to leave the session with a smile on your face, feeling relaxed, loved and connected.

My mission is to make the world a better place by sharing my unconditional love via loving and nurturing touch.
