As a therapist, you may have seen your colleagues and local counsellors with thriving practices and wondered “what are they doing differently?”. I get it. You went to school for many years to provide a high-quality, passion-driven, therapeutic experience to your patients. And when you decided to go full time with your private practice, you may have underestimated just how much “business” comes with going solo.
No matter where your practice needs support - be it with strategic design or intentional mentorship, you’re in the right place.
I’m a business coach & website designer for therapists and other impactful businesses, and I’m here to support you in creating & growing a business that feels true to you.
"Working with Samara is having a business partner by your side every step of the way. Someone that will support you, push you to reflect further in your decision and help you gain confidence in yourself and in the services you offer. I had been burned before with a previous coach. The support I received was not worth the money I had spend, it was generic and left me at the same place as I started. I wanted to invest in a coach that would tailor the coaching to me and where I was in my business and evolve with me and my crazy ideas. And that's exactly what Samara did!"

I’m a heart-led entrepreneur passionate about supporting impactful businesses that feel and do good. I’m all about building businesses from a place of alignment to strike a perfect balance between what feels good to you and good for your patients.
When I'm not supporting clients or designing intentional brands, I can usually be found at a choir rehearsal or curled up on the couch with a cup of coffee dreaming about helping more impactful businesses thrive.
I’ve been in your shoes. When I first started my business I priced my services incredibly low in desperate hopes that my ideal clients would hire me. I believed my passion for design & creativity would be the key to success, but quickly realized this wasn’t the only fuel the business needed to thrive. I offered my website services as a two-week, quick-turnaround project that felt completely unaligned. I wasn’t able to dedicate enough time and attention to my clients and I constantly felt rushed.
My work (and income) wasn’t sustainable and certainly wasn’t contributing to the life I was dreaming about when I started my business. When I started to reflect on which aspects of my business I loved, and what components my clients raved about, I was able to identify where I needed to make major changes in my business.
Once I started to implement more strategic marketing, proper business structure, and organization, I’ve been able to hire a team and invest substantially into growing my business, all while creating more time and space to fully show up for my wonderful clients. And this is more than possible for you too.
"Samara helped me realize who my ideal clients are, how I want to be portrayed as a brand/business, and my worth as a business owner. I now have a website and brand that I feel like speaks to not only me, but my ideal clients, and I am beyond thrilled with the outcome! If you've been considering hiring Samara, you truly won't regret it!"

Before hiring Samara, I felt like our website was mediocre at best. Definitely a DIY project. I appreciate how helpful and resourceful Samara is. From someone like my self who knows little to nothing about the tech and web world, she knew how to troubleshoot, find the answers and problem solve so that I didn't have to. She took a-lot of time with me on the creative process of designing the look and feel so I felt heard and understood with the vision i was trying to create.

She is beyond amazing. I don’t have one negative thing to say about my whole experience of working with her. She was absolutely amazing!
