Personal Wellness FAQs

What is personal wellness?

Personal wellness is the ongoing practice of tending to your whole self, mind, body, and emotions, so you can live with more ease, resilience, and connection. It looks different for everyone. For some, it means building emotional resilience or strengthening boundaries. For others, it might be moving your body in healthier ways, reducing stress, or letting go of old beliefs that no longer serve you. At its heart, it is about what helps you feel whole and well.

What can I expect in a personal wellness session?

Every session is tailored to you. We might explore mindfulness practices, gentle movement, breathwork, or somatic techniques that help you understand and work with your nervous system. What you can expect in every single session is a safe space to show up exactly as you are, where every part of you is welcomed, nurtured, and safe, free from judgement. You will be met with authenticity, deep care, and unwavering support. This is a place where you can feel seen, heard, and valued, with someone in your corner as your advocate, your cheerleader, and your guide. Together, we walk the path back to your embodied, empowered self. You will leave each session with practical tools you can use in everyday life, and a deeper connection to who you truly are.

What is mindfulness?

Mindfulness is the skill of paying attention on purpose, in the present moment, without judgement. It helps you notice your thoughts, emotions, and body sensations with curiosity rather than criticism, making it easier to respond instead of react. It is the practise of turning the elusive present moment, into a generous present moment, allowing you to see what may be beneath the surface of your habitual thoughts, patterns and belief systems.

What is somatic therapy and how does it relate to personal wellness?

Somatic therapy works with the wisdom of the body to help release stress, tension, and old patterns that can keep you feeling stuck. It is based on the understanding that the body often holds experiences our minds cannot fully process. In personal wellness, somatic work complements mindfulness, and dialogue work, giving you both awareness and practical ways to shift how you feel.

Are you a licensed therapist?

While this work can feel deeply therapeutic, I am not a licensed psychotherapist. My approach is grounded in psycho somatic principles, supporting clients in exploring their inner world and the way they relate to themselves and others. This work is inspired by therapeutic models but offered through the lens of coaching, somatic exploration, and holistic support.

Who would benefit from mindfulness or somatic therapy?

Anyone who wants to feel more grounded, less reactive, and more connected to themselves. It can be especially helpful if you experience stress, anxiety, burnout, or a sense of being stuck in old habits or emotional loops. I am actually yet to meet anyone who could not garner deep benefit from mindfulness or somatic therapy. Still, there are moments when pausing to notice the present is not what the nervous system needs most. In the middle of deep anxiety, for example, we might begin instead with grounding practices or gentle breathwork to help bring you back to safety. Or to talk our the situation to help your mind make sense of a situation. In this way, every person can benefit from these approaches, yet each moment calls for its own kind of care.

Can I use my insurance or benefits for personal wellness sessions?

These sessions are not  covered under extended health benefits, as I am not a licensed therapist. Some clients have been able to use professional development or wellness budgets, especially if their employer values holistic well being. For business owners, this work can often be considered professional development, as we focus on regulating emotions and building skills that support both personal and professional life.

How do I get started if I have limited experience with wellness?

You do not need to have any experience. In truth, wellness is not something we start on, it is something we return to. Wellness is already within you, it is your body’s natural state. Our work together will be about exploring what has moved you away from your natural state of wellness, and what could guide you back, using simple and accessible practices at a pace that feels right for you.

CLIENT REVIEWS

Samantha has helped me grow and develop on a physical level and on a mental level. I can honestly say that I would not be the man I am today had I not engaged Samantha as my coach back in 2019.  Samantha has been instrumental in not only training my body but has also helped me train and calm my mind leading me to be more connected and generally happier with how I show up in the world and how I interact with myself and others. I can not recommend her enough, and I am forever grateful for her guidance, patience, wisdom and unique gifts.

I’m still in awe of our session so thank you! It’s a bit odd to write a review on something as moving as this experience with Samantha. This experience with Samantha was something I had not been able to experience in other sought after therapeutic/self-development experiences. Engaging with her is an inspiring experience. She provides the feelings of talking with your best friend while also being the mirror to your deepest wounds and darkest corners. She brought things to light I didn’t even realize I was keeping in the dark. I have paid multiple therapists who have not hit on such a nerve but it was exactly the place I needed to tend to. I now have an exercise which is helping me work through the feeling of loneliness and I am seeing instant results. I could write so much more on this and I only spent an hour speaking with her. There’s a reason she’s been called to do the work she is doing. I hope that people who have even the slightest of curiosity give her one chance to help you illuminate your own “yellow brick road” to your own, full-on, self discoveries.”

I’ve been so grateful to have Samantha as my therapist for the past year. This time with her has realigned my life in such a positive way. Samantha takes a warm yet pragmatic approach to her therapy. She gently leads you in exploring your thoughts and feelings in a safe space created between the two of you.
Every session with her I am always impressed by her emotional intelligence and ability to immediately understand what I am going through from a deep level with no judgement. While many therapists will leave you wondering what you got out of the session, Samantha will leave you deep in thought and emotion as she gracefully faces your traumas alongside you as you begin to heal.

After Sammy’s session I immediately noticed her honesty, which at first was a little bit hard to digest as I couldn’t quite comprehend or process those feelings immediately, now I see it was because some things hit home harder than I thought they could. I would always need to give my response or my opinion, often without ever letting the other person finish, she showed me how this was preventing me from truly allowing people to feel close to me! After one week after my time with Sammy, my friends said they’ve noticed a big change in me and I truly, truly put this down to Sammy’s patience, understanding, support and ability to not only read me, but tell me what I need to hear to grow into the man I want to be. I whole heartedly recommend Sammy for heart to heart mentoring. She is unique and worth your time and money!

I’ve spent a good portion of my life in athletics, along with a few years fighting competitively from a reputable gym – but it wasn’t until I worked with Samantha where I understood how to correctly use my body. Her expertise in movement shows in her ability to teach the art of punching on a kinetic level. She believes in quality reps rather than mercilessly drilling the same movements and this allows for athletes to truly understand what they are asking out of their body when performing. Training with Samantha has opened my eyes about where my power comes from – I recommend her to anyone who takes their craft seriously.

I embarked on this journey with Sammy a little skeptical. I saw that she was an athlete, and a counsellor, and I wasn’t really sure what to expect.
But she’s really covered it all with me, I see why she’s called a ‘holistic’ coach.
There were so many things about myself I was unaware of, mainly.. my emotions, and how they were running my life, setting boundaries, even though I thought I had it under control!
I am a happier more open person, I have more patience, and self acceptance… And as an added bonus, better posture, feel stronger and feel more self aware in a genuine way.
I swap between counselling and training and I don’t think I’ll ever go to anyone else for either of them again. She is simply the most well rounded coach of any kind that I have had.

If you haven’t hired Sammy yet, you’re with the wrong coach. She taught me so much in our first session alone, and then at some point in the first few weeks I realized I was completely getting my ass kicked. She is so knowledgeable, and at this point I’m convinced she knows my body better than I ever did. She notices things no one else sees, and explains things in a way that’s easy to digest without ever making you feel ignorant. I feel confident, strong, and grateful for my body. We do boxing, yoga, strength and even meditation. Somehow she masters it all. I trust Sammy with my health and my life and would perish without her.

Sammy Is AMAZING, I went to her because I wanted a cute booty, my God did I get so so so much more.She helped me move in a way that doesn’t hurt my knee (been trying to get that for 8 years) but she also explained movements to me in a way which finally makes sense. I’m comfortable exercising on my own for the first time ever, and now I’m able to see my emotional and mental health had a HUGE part in my physical fatigue and stress.
She’s a wizard, or a witch, I dunno, but hire her and just go along for the ride!

Coming from a history of contact sports, car accidents leading to injuries. Training with Sammy has not only just fixed my body better than any physio or chiropractor has managed to do. But In my short time with her I’ve also learned to have much more confidence and peace of mind. She has a vast knowledge of how the human body works with loads of experience but her ability to emotionally connect with her clients/myself is what makes her truly a one of a kind trainer. Anyone would be blessed to have her in their corner. Thank you for everything.

Jake Taylor

I came to Sammy looking for someone to help me lose weight and nothing more. But through working with her, I’m starting to learn the value of seeing my body as a part of my whole self rather than just a shell to manipulate. In our short time together, she has already helped me realize things no therapist has done before and helped me move in ways no trainer has done before.
Sammy’s passion and empathy make her a great coach and someone you definitely want on your team. I recommend her immensely.

Harleen Sahota
Mindfulness and Movement Client

Working with Sam has been an incredible journey over the last 3 years. She has helped me physically become stronger in fitness and has helped me lean into an emotional and spiritual journey I didn’t know I needed. She is incredible at creating space to hold whatever is needed during our sessions and always finds a way to bring joy and laughter in. I’d highly recommend working with her!

Sammy has a passion for helping people and a great attention to detail. She has in-depth knowledge of proper biomechanics and taught me how to move my body to prevent injuries.
She is also a great listener if you feel like complaining about anything while exercising.
Her bubbly personality and energy is contagious and its impossible to not be in a good mood after her sessions.
