Meet Your Guide: Tess Deveze

This course was created by the late Tess Deveze, an Occupational Therapist, somatic sexologist, and internationally respected educator in cancer and intimacy.

Tess spent years working directly with people navigating sexual recovery after cancer, chronic illness, disability, and trauma. Their approach was practical, affirming, and always gentle — empowering people to reconnect with their bodies in ways that feel safe and nourishing.

Tess passed away in June 2025, but their legacy lives on through this work. The course you’re about to take was one of their most loved and impactful trainings — and it continues to support people around the world in finding new pleasure, confidence, and connection after cancer.

“Tess was phenomenal. Articulate and gifted… made me feel so at ease – something I know patients will appreciate immensely.” – Justine Andrew, Clinical Urology Nurse

📝FAQs

How is the course delivered?

All content is online. You’ll get instant access to videos, printable guides, and practical exercises. Just log in and click on what you want to watch or read — as often as you like.

How long do I have access?

If you've bought the course for full price ($199 USD) then it's yours for life - if you've purchased the Hub Membership then you have access to the course for as long as you are a member.

What if I want to do this course, but my partner doesn’t?

There is a full refund policy, 14 days after purchase date. 14 days is the perfect amount of time for you and your partner to get an idea of the content, how Tess works, the program itself and figure out if it is the right time for both of you to do this course. 

We offer a 14-day full refund for purchases if less than 40% of total course material has been viewed (we use a database provider who provides accurate metrics regarding viewership of total course content).

How long does the training take?

Just a little each week. It's all online and is spread over six weeks so you don't have to do too much at once.  You can do 10 minutes a day, or choose one or two days a week. If you can have between 1 - 1.5 hours IN TOTAL per week, you got this!

Do we need any special equipment, technology or products?

The only equipment you need is a laptop, iPad or Smartphone with internet access. The course opens up in your web browser and requires sound.

You create a password at checkout to log in with, and there's an easy password reset system in case you forget it.

Can anyone do this course? I'm not experienced in 'this kind of stuff'.

Yes! Anyone and everyone is welcome here! Everything is super slow-paced, without the awkwardness. You'll be so surprised how normal it all seems!

What if the practice doesn’t work for me?

Results come with repetition — like going to the gym. Try twice a week for 3 weeks. If it’s not helping, reach out and we’ll happily offer a refund and suggest other options.

Is there any research backing this program?

Yes. This course is part of a broader masterclass series developed by Oncosexual Occupational Therapist Tess Deveze. In 2025, Tess published a peer-reviewed article documenting the outcomes of these courses in adults recovering from cancer-related sexual changes.

In that study, 81% of participants reported significant improvements in genital sensation, libido, emotional connection, and sexual confidence — even after years of feeling stuck.

“This gave us back what cancer took away — we’re kissing, teasing, laughing again.”
“There was always something lacking in my erectile dysfunction recovery, and then I found your work.”

These results support what many of our participants already feel: that pleasure can be relearned, and intimacy rebuilt — with the right tools and guidance.

Citation: Deveze, T. (2025). “Rehabilitating Pleasure and Libido After Medical Castration: A Neurological Therapeutic Approach.”

I'm nervous, am I going to be asked to do anything out of my comfort zone?

This course is very intentionally designed so that things only need to be done to the level that is right for you. It is very slowly paced so you have time to understand what you are comfortable with. All activities are described in detail before being invited to participate, which vary between verbal, written and touch.

What shows up on my bank statement?

You’ll see “A TOUCHY SUBJECT” — no mention of sex, intimacy, or pleasure.

Why is this in US dollars?

We support people in over 40 countries, so we use USD as a global standard.
