I am also an Owner at The Centered Life and we believe the most important thing in therapy is to make sure there is a good fit between the therapist and client.
Hi, I'm Sam! I specialize in helping those who struggle with anxiety that leads to feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, insecure, difficulty focusing, racing thoughts, and trouble sleeping. I love teaching and empowering my clients to use coping skills so that they can feel confident and resilient to decrease their overall stress and anxiety.

I choose to empower women, as I share a deep sense of connection to the challenges this can bring in life .
I support women who are amazing caretakers to others, but find themselves feeling unable to prioritize taking better care of themselves! They feel depleated, stuck and unsatisfierd with thier life ! We can all list many examples of self care; but why aren't we praciticng it? When we partner together, I empower my clients to overcome the obstacles that hold them back. I do this through a two step, results driven process which gives women a deep understanding of themselves and redirects their actions to support prioritizng their emotional health so that they can be their best self; whether that's mom, wife, friend or entrepreneur.

In my 15 of years providing therapy, I have worked with various individuals experiencing different life challenges. The goal is to create a connection and from that connection build a bridge to healing and recovery. I believe that we are all seeking radical acceptance and radical belonging. Systemic oppression significantly impacts mental and physical wellness. I strongly believe it is not that a person needs to be "fixed". Marginalized and oppressed folx need support, space, agency, and tools to navigate an increasingly hostile and toxic environment.

I use a blend of cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, insight-oriented, and solution-focused approaches in the counseling and coaching that I do.
People often look for a coach or a counselor because they feel like something is wrong in their lives. Maybe you aren’t doing “good enough,” in school, or you feel like you can’t handle the endless train of stressors that confront you in your daily life . Maybe you have trouble finding meaningful connections with friends, family, or your romantic partner. I understand, because I sometimes feel this way, too. This is part of the human condition. Remember, you are constantly in the process of becoming who you are, and all these difficulties are twists and turns on that path towards yourself. I will walk that path with you.

I strive to find solutions that are "Skills Over Pills". I am passionate about helping preteens, teens, and adults that are struggling to better themselves. It can be scary to feel that you are “behind others” in work, school, or relationships but I can help you refocus on the positive aspects of yourself and what you are truly capable of. I have experience with LGBTQ+, anxiety, depression, life changes, and trauma. I have worked with individuals, groups, and in hospital settings. I also taught parenting classes and have experience with career counseling. All of my experience is focused on guiding others along their journey.

Everyone wants to know that they matter and that they have worth. Sometimes life gets in the way and interferes with our ability to tap into our sense of belonging and being accepted as we are. Helping clients navigate through life issues and challenges and healing the deeper wounds that affect our day to day functioning is a passion of mine. What does it mean to be "healthy and whole"? Discovering this and working toward healing and thriving where you are at is a rewarding experience!

Life Coaching Therapists

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
