A 2027 live course series based on The Neurodivergent & LGBTQ+ Sex Playbook

Welcome To The Guild!
Standard advice about intimacy, dating, and relationships is written by neurotypical people, for neurotypical people. If you have an autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, or otherwise neurodivergent brain, trying to follow traditional sex advice often feels like trying to run software on the wrong operating system.
The NSP Guild is designed specifically for neurodivergent adults. Whether you are straight, vanilla, and monogamous, or LGBTQIA+, queer, kinky, or polyamorous, this is a safe, non-judgmental space built to help you understand and explore intimacy on your terms.
Five standalone seven-week live coaching courses based on The Neurodivergent & LGBTQ+ Sex Playbook. Unpack your desires, honor your sensory world, and re-author your intimate life, one chapter at a time.
Sounds All Too Familiar?
You struggle with:
-
Sensory Overload & Shutdown: Specific textures, lights, sounds, or unpredictable touch turn intimacy from a source of pleasure into a sensory overwhelming chore.
-
The "Unwritten Rules" Exhaustion: Feeling confused, anxious, or burnt out by the hidden social scripts and expectations around physical intimacy.
-
Masking in the Bedroom: Pretending to enjoy things you don't, hiding your true preferences, or suppressing your need for predictability just to keep a partner comfortable.
-
Clashing Desire & Executive Dysfunction: Struggling with initiating and focus during sex, or feeling like your libido is completely unpredictable.
-
Identity & Label Confusion: Feeling unsure of where your sexuality and identity fit, because mainstream labels don't capture your neurodivergent experience.
Is This For Me?
The NSP Guild was created specifically to give stuck or struggling neurodivergent adults a safe, structured, and validating space to talk about intimacy on their own terms.
This space is for you if:
-
You want a contained "clothes on, hands off" group discussion space.
-
You are an autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, or neurodivergent adult.
-
You represent any relationship style or sexual orientation: Whether you are straight, vanilla, and monogamous, or LGBTQIA+, queer, kinky, or polyamorous.
-
You want a practical, concise, evidence-informed framework to understand your body, brain, and desires without being told to "just relax" or "be spontaneous".
-
You are tired of vague self-help courses with hours of video homework and prefer structured, live, human connection.
How The Guild Works
The NSP Guild is designed for neurodivergent brains and bodies, to prevent burnout and maximize accessibility:
-
1 Book > Five Courses: Only choose the chapters that interest you, or complete the whole book together. Your choice
-
Capped at 8 People: Small, tight-knit cohorts ensure psychological safety,no crowding, and meaningful pair and group exercise spaces.

-
Structured 60-Minute Group Calls: Wednesdays are reserved for structured practising, and group processing, with no awkward silences or forced participation.
-
Built-in Rest Weeks: Every module includes a week off in Week 4, to give your nervous system time to integrate.
How Will My Intimate Life Change?
You are welcome to go through The Neurodivergent Sex Playbook alone and you will still learn a lot about yourself. That said, there are even more benefits from doing it in a live, small-group setting.

Small Cohorts for Safer Practicing
Invitation & Resting
The NSP Guild is specifically designed around choice, consent, and integration.
You will be invited to reflect, participate, and experiment at a pace that respects your nervous system and your boundaries.
This is steady, supported work rather than pressure to perform.
Contained Community
Each cohort is capped at 8 participants. In this instance, size does matter!
Joking aside, it gives each person more room for meaningful discussion, quieter processing, thoughtful questions, and safer pair or breakout work.
We have time to get to know each other.
Nothing to Get Wrong
The weekly activities are invitations to self-discovery and exploration. As you are the expert on you, only you can tell what your unique responses will be.
You can't get it wrong (or right!) as you will naturally have different answers to some, or all, of the other participants.
Meet Your Coach
I'm Tiga-Rose Nercessian (she/her). I’m an accredited Sex and Relationship Psychotherapist. I’m also a specialist trainer and academic researcher. I have been working in this field since 2015.
Personally, I am a queer, multi-neurodivergent, multi-ethnic synaesthete. These aspects of who I am form and inform me and my practice.
My work is trauma-informed and neurodivergent-affirming, ensuring you feel heard, held, and safe as we explore together.
The NSP Guild was born out of desire to make my activity book contents more accessible for more people to practice.
