Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Relationships can bring connection, love, meaning, and growth, but they can also become places of conflict, misunderstanding, distance, resentment, or pain. I work with individuals and couples to explore the deeper patterns affecting communication, trust, intimacy, attachment, and recurring conflict. My approach is relational, insightful, and grounded in helping people understand both themselves and each other more clearly.

Relationship and Marriage Guidance:
Relationships fail for predictable reasons. Poor communication, unmet needs, resentment that builds over years—but underneath that, there's usually something deeper. Patterns you both brought into the relationship that are now colliding.
Maybe you're repeating what you saw growing up. Maybe you shut down when things get intense, or you push when your partner pulls away. These aren't character flaws—they're survival patterns that made sense once but don't work now.
I work with couples to understand what's actually happening underneath the fights about dishes or money or sex. What are you each protecting? What do you each need that you're not getting? And more importantly—can you actually give each other what's needed, or are you fundamentally mismatched?
Sometimes the work is about saving the relationship. Sometimes it's about understanding why it can't work so you can both move forward with clarity instead of bitterness. Either way, we're after the truth, not false hope.
I also work with individuals on relationship patterns—why you keep choosing the same type of person, why intimacy feels dangerous, why you sabotage good things. Understanding your patterns means you can actually change them.

Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
Our training with Relational: Couples/Partners/Family/Chosen Family... work includes Nonviolent Communication, Neurodevelopmental Models, Real Life Therapy, Compassionate Mediation, Convergent Facilitation, Polyvagal Theory, Attachment Theory, Internal Family Systems and Intimacy from the Inside Out work, Neurodiversity Training...among other trainings. Partners/Couples/Chosen Family work can range from addressing a topical issue to growing and developing capacity with deeper connection. Sometimes the care is in supporting folks to identify differing neurobiological baselines and functionality that allows for better acceptance and creative teamwork. We may even draw from sidereal astrology and archetypal work to find creative options. (Statement of care: Sometimes, not always!!!! (the sad truth is) people have transactional or fantasy based relationships and they don't want to admit that that is what the setup is by one or both people, and without shame if folks in these situations can admit that, then there is generally less stress to make a relationship behave as something it isn't setup to be -- said with care. Often this needs to be addressed before progress can be made.) Sessions are typically 2 hours long and address issues efficiently, often individual sessions are woven in for both/all participants. Please feel free to inquire about scheduling a first session.
