Shana James, MA

Shana’s coaching work with me was profound and transformative. Her deeply somatic and empathic presence helped me to work through the ickiness of shame, anger, and grief, back into my Power and Joy. She helped me find my authentic voice, drop the codependent care-​taking, and arrive in a place where I can be both fully myself and fully, intimately connected.

All of my relationships have improved with the help of Shana. She provides exactly what I need to move forward in my life. Since the start of my coaching relationship with Shana I have entered into a wonderful relationship with an amazing woman. We are still going strong after nine months.
One of the things that makes the work I do with Shana so astounding is that it regularly touches me in places that none of my extensive therapeutic work ever could. Shana sees me, she embraces my soul and I am deeply moved. I can recommend her with no reservations to anyone who is looking to connect with their heart and their authentic self.

Since working with Shana, I’ve felt more comfortable and right about myself, I’ve struck up warm conversations with beautiful women, and my girlfriend and I are closer and happier than ever.
Shana reflected me back to myself and I got a clear sense of what it’s like for a woman to be around me in my different states of being — so rare to get that kind of immediate feedback. Together, we explored ways I could let my authentic core come through.
In one particularly amazing session, she helped me touch an emotion that I thought had been dead in me. When I let myself feel it completely, things suddenly got full, present, authentic, joyful, spontaneous, effortless. Exactly what I wanted in the first place. To have this explained is one thing, but to be guided through the actual experience of it has opened my eyes and changed my way of being.
