Welcome! I'm Matthew.
I'm a life and relationship coach working at the intersection of intimacy, identity, and personal growth.
My work is centered around helping people better understand themselves, their relationships, and the ways they move through connection, emotionally, physically, and relationally.
This work may be a good fit if you're looking to feel more connected to yourself, to your body, and to the people in your life.
Many of the people I work with are exploring identity, relationships, or intimacy in ways that don't always fit traditional frameworks.
Who this is for
This work may be a good fit if you're looking to:
• Feel more connected to yourself and your body
• Explore identity, intimacy, or relationship dynamics
• Navigate nontraditional relationship structures
• Build confidence, communication, or emotional clarity
• Move through experiences with more intention and self-understanding
Many of the people I work with are part of LGBTQIA+ and/or nonmonogamous (open/poly/CNM) communities, but this space is open to anyone looking to explore these areas of their life.
A grounded approach
This isn't about fixing you or giving you a rigid set of rules to follow.
It's about creating space to explore what's already there, your patterns, your desires, your questions, and helping you move forward in a way that feels intentional and aligned.
What we can work on together
Some of the areas we might explore include:
• Understanding relationship patterns
• Exploring identity and intimacy
• Navigating communication and boundaries
• Building confidence in yourself and your choices
• Processing emotional or relational experiences
• Aligning your thoughts, actions, and values
Inclusivity
I do not discriminate on the basis of age, body type, race, nationality, neurodivergence, disability, gender expression, sexuality, background, military status, political affiliation, religion, or creed.
I work with full respect for both monogamous and consensually nonmonogamous (CNM) individuals and relationships.
A thoughtful, client-led process
This work is not about giving you a set path to follow.
It's about helping you better understand your own instincts, patterns, and desires, so you can make decisions that feel aligned and sustainable in your life.
Session cost
Sliding scale sessions are available:
$70–$140 (60 minutes)
This range is designed to keep this work accessible while also honoring the time, energy, and care it requires.
If you're able to pay at the higher end of the scale, it helps support the sustainability of this work and allows me to continue offering lower-cost options for others.
You're invited to choose a rate that feels honest and manageable for you, no explanation required.
Between-session support
For those working together on an ongoing basis, I offer light support between sessions via email.
This space can be used for:
• Sharing reflections or updates
• Asking questions
• Processing experiences as they come up
I do my best to respond thoughtfully within a day or two, depending on availability.
This is not a real-time or ongoing conversation space, but a way to stay connected and supported between sessions.
For more ongoing or frequent back-and-forth, the optional support tier may be a better fit.
Ongoing Support Access (Optional)
For those who would like more consistent connection:
$40–$100/month
Includes:
• Ongoing email support between sessions
• More space for processing, questions, and continued dialogue
• Responses typically within 24–48 hours
This offers a steady, grounded form of support, not immediate or on-demand.
Additional Support Options
If something feels more time-sensitive or you'd prefer to talk things through:
15-Minute Check-In Call
Available when scheduling allows
$30–$50
A Note on Availability
I value being responsive and present with the people I work with, while also maintaining clear boundaries that allow this work to be sustainable.
If you're ever unsure what level of support is right for you, we can always talk it through together.
Final Thought
You don't have to figure this out alone. And you don't have to rush into or away from anything.
This space exists so you can move thoughtfully, with support, and in a way that actually feels like yours.
Reach Out When You're Ready
You're welcome to reach out with questions or to schedule a session, whatever feels right. There's no pressure, just a space to connect if and when it feels aligned for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does coaching consist of?
Coaching is a collaborative, future-focused process.
Rather than analyzing the past in depth, we focus on understanding where you are now and where you want to go, while using your own insight and experience as a guide.
My role is to help reflect, refine, and support your process as you move forward.
What is your schedule like?
With a few days to a week of notice, I often have availability for mornings, afternoons, or evenings on both weekdays and weekends.
Occasionally, same-day sessions may be available, feel free to check in.
Where are sessions held?
Sessions are primarily held virtually by phone or video.
In-person sessions may be possible locally in Biddeford, Maine or nearby areas, depending on availability and scheduling.
Can I use insurance?
I do not accept insurance.
However, I offer a sliding scale, and I'm happy to discuss options if cost would otherwise be a barrier.
