Individual Coaching
Are you overwhelmed by what you're feeling? Ashamed of how hard this is? Confused about why something so true on the inside is so damn hard to own?
I know this because I've been there.
When I started my journey of exploring my sexuality over two decades ago, I was a mess. I questioned how I could have gone so many years not knowing my own truth, whether I was really gay or bisexual, and whether all of this was going to ease up at some point and bring me the joy I had been missing in my prior hetero relationships.
Here’s what I wish I’d known at the beginning: exploring and coming to terms with your sexuality is a powerful transition. It takes courage to unpack and unlearn the beliefs, habits, and practices you’ve carried for a lifetime, and to choose what’s true for you now.
Doing this work takes more than just focus and time. It takes a very specific set of skills as well as a non-judgmental space to talk it through, practice, and get feedback.
“Working with Samantha doing 1:1 coaching has been such a productive investment in my emotional health. I had been trying to work through this quandary on my own, but I kept ending up paralyzed by fear and unable to move through indecision to a healthier place. Samantha’s skill in asking just the right question at just the right time allowed me to get clarity on the best ways to progress forward. Being able to access her through VIP coaching between live sessions kept me feeling fully supported, like she had her hand on my back the whole time. It was an incredible relief to share with someone who truly understood (from personal experience) and such a benefit to have her coaching enhanced by her training & experience as a LMFT. -Trish
Here are some of the things that I help people with individually:
Support on the the journey to find your authentic sexuality through curiosity
Supporting you as you explore what is blocking you, why, and giving you the tools to move beyond the blocks
Finding more clarity around what is coming up for you and what next steps you wish to take.
Helping you to unlearn the conditioning that has kept you from being able to connect to your authentic Self.
Giving you tools to find your voice in sharing what feels important to share with others in your life
Softening the parts of you that are struggling with queer phobic conditioning
Exploring relationship styles and what feels most aligned with you
Softening shame, guilt and anxiety so they don’t block you from moving forward in life
Providing a place for you to talk, be heard, and get advice from someone with personal and professional experience.
So why a coach?
When we are blocked by parts of us holding guilt and shame, we stay stuck cycling in the same thoughts and feelings.
What’s actually happening is your emotional system is trying to keep you safe, so you can survive, and in doing so, it’s not allowing you to access your adult Self of today.
If you are ready to get unstuck and try something different, I would love to work with you. Together we will cultivate a practice of curiosity, as those parts of you that are keeping you stuck begin to soften and give way to more ease and inner alignment.
My journey to self-discovery and emotional freedom began with just one coaching session with Samantha; it was transformative. After battling anxiety and questioning my sexual identity for the past several months, I realized therapy alone was insufficient. I needed a coach who could meet me where I am currently and equip me with emotional tools. Samantha created a safe space for vulnerability from the beginning.
Samantha’s coaching sparked “happiness” within me. By the end of our session, I felt ready to mediate and fully experience every emotion, for however long I needed to feel. I did just that, and it was cathartic. Afterwards, a calmness washed over me that I had not felt in months.
I know this journey will not be easy, but at least I now have the tools to feel my emotions, accept myself and embrace what comes.
