Coaching with Coach Sam
Soles in Action
Coaching is a collaborative, evidence-informed process. Together we build self-awareness, get clear on your values, and design behavior change that actually fits your life — so growth feels less like a battle and more like a discovery.

Who coaching is for
Maybe this sounds familiar…
1.You’re in the middle of a transition — a move, a career shift, a new chapter in family life — and want to navigate it on purpose.
2.You’re a parent who wants to understand your child (and yourself) better, especially around neurodivergence or behavioral challenges.
3.You keep setting goals and slipping back into old patterns, and you’re curious why.
4.You’re doing ‘fine,’ but you suspect there’s more possible — and you’d like a thinking partner to explore it.
What coaching can help with
Where we might focus
My coaching approach
Curious, kind, and practical.
Evidence-informed
Grounded in positive psychology and behavior-change research — translated into plain language and practical steps.
Collaborative
You’re the expert on your life. I bring curiosity, structure, and better questions; we figure out the rest together.
Values-led
Change sticks when it’s connected to what matters to you — not to someone else’s idea of success.
Real-life practical
Small experiments over grand overhauls. Strategies that fit into busy, imperfect, beautifully human days.
An important distinction
Coaching is not therapy.
Coaching is…
A forward-focused partnership for self-awareness, goals, habits, and growth. It assumes you’re whole and capable, and works on what you want to build next.
Coaching isn’t…
Psychotherapy, counseling, or medical treatment. I don’t diagnose or treat mental health conditions. It can work hand in hand with therapy — and if therapy or medical care would serve you better, I’ll encourage you to connect with a licensed professional.
How coaching works
Small weekly check-ins. Real-life support.
30-minute sessions, once a week
Focused time to set your goals, notice what’s working, and plan your next small step.
Text support between sessions
Proactive text-message support between sessions, so encouragement and accountability show up when you actually need them.
Private & protected
Messages go through a HIPAA-compliant messaging platform, so your information stays safe.
Works beautifully alongside therapy
Already seeing a therapist? Coaching pairs really well with it. Your therapist supports your treatment; coaching helps you turn insight into goals and everyday action.
