The Vetted Practitioner Directory

A vouched-for list of practitioners working in the territory this site writes about — tantra teachers, somatic guides, breathwork facilitators, ritual workers, erotic-wellness coaches, and erotic-hypnosis practitioners. Every listed practitioner has been worked with or vetted personally by the editorial team and has agreed to full transparency about their training, their lineage, and any cult or guru affiliations they came up through.

A note on scope: this directory does not list sex workers, escorts, or transactional intimate services. The framework's editorial position is that vetted sex workers do important and legitimate work; the framework's commercial position is that the legal and regulatory environment around platforms that facilitate sex work is too complicated to take on. Readers looking for that territory should use platforms designed for it.

What "vetted" means

Every listed practitioner has provided, on the record:

• Real name + credentials — no anonymized listings, no fabricated names
• Training lineage — every teacher they trained with, dates, locations, length of training
• Cult and guru affiliations — past or present — disclosed openly. Non-disclosure disqualifies. The reader decides what they are comfortable with.
• Any abuse allegations against their primary teachers — with links to public coverage where it exists
• Scope of practice — what they do, what they don't do, what they're not trained for
• Pricing — no hidden tiers, no "ask in DMs"
• Real client testimonials — verifiable, not fabricated
• Code of conduct agreement — consent, boundaries, no proselytizing, no upselling beyond stated scope, no certification mills

The vetting is editorial, not auctioned. Practitioners who pay for premium placement still have to pass the vetting. Money does not buy past the gate.

What we don't list

• Practitioners with active, unresolved abuse allegations of their own
• Practitioners who refuse to disclose their training history
• Practitioners actively running certification mills or weekend-conversion funnels
• Practitioners whose primary affiliation is to a cult that is currently active and recruiting
• Practitioners making unverifiable claims of healing, channeling, or supernatural ability
• Practitioners working outside their stated scope

This is a tighter filter than any directory currently working in this field. That is the point.

The directory

Currently in the vetting phase. The first wave of listed practitioners is being onboarded now. Want to be considered for listing? Apply below.

Additional sample listing types pending: somatic facilitator · ritual / shadow worker · couples' practice guide · trauma-informed bodywork practitioner.

Apply to be listed

The directory is in its initial vetting wave. Practitioners interested in being considered for listing should submit the application below. Vetting takes 2–4 weeks per applicant.

Listing fee: $50/month or $500/year. Founding-practitioner rate (locked for life of the directory): $30/month for the first 50 listed.

Premium placement (Featured Practitioner): $250/month. Subject to the same vetting; pays for ad-style placement, not for editorial approval.

For readers using the directory

Two things to keep in mind:

1. The vetting is not a personal endorsement. A listed practitioner has met the directory's transparency standard. That doesn't mean they're the right fit for you. Read the full profile, including the lineage notes. Ask the practitioner questions. Trust your body's signal in the first session.
2. If a practitioner violates the code of conduct, tell us. Contact us via the report link in any listing. We investigate every report. Practitioners who violate the code are removed from the directory and the removal is public.
