MEET THE coach

Hey, I'm Shasta!

I’m a sex and relationship coach with a diverse journey that allows me to deeply understand the complexities of intimacy. I've learned that real change in relationships comes from self-discovery, compassionate support, and intentional practice. Whether you’re navigating intimacy with yourself or your partner, I offer a space where you can grow, heal, and build the connections you desire.

Coaching for

Relationship Wellness

I offer tailored coaching sessions for individuals and couples to help with:

  • Enhancing sexual expression and intimacy

  • Improving communication in relationships

  • Navigating complex emotional and physical connections

The Unique

Somatica® Method

I use the Somatica® method, combining talk therapy with body-based practices to help you explore, express, and heal. The sessions are designed to be experiential—fun, empowering, and deeply transformative.

What People Are Saying

I came to Shasta during a time where I was still emerging from a long history of relationship challenges, self esteem issues and struggles with experiencing a positive sexual experience. She provided a gentle safe space for me to work through those issues, while equipping me with the guidance to improve the relationship with my own body, and cheering on the wins I was slowly making during our time together.

Naomi, England

Shasta is easy to talk to, knowledgeable, a creative problem solver, she has access to an impressive number of resources, and is entirely non-judgmental. Through Shasta I have become much more knowledgeable about my wants and needs, I value exploring them on my own, and I am able to communicate them to my partner with more skill and much less inhibition.

B.V. Washington

It was one of the best things I have ever done for myself and my relationships. I have been married for almost 40 years, and am a survivor of child sexual abuse, as well as other traumas that leave a scar on our souls and change us as people. These scars take away trust, create disconnection in our own bodies and lives and Shasta has been instrumental in regaining those essential pieces of my life, my womanhood and my marriage

Frequently Asked Questions

The thought of sharing personal details may be a bit unsettling. Our sessions would be open and caring, free from judgement or shame. Send me an email below or better yet, click the green button so we can chat to see if working together is right for you.

Question 1: Do I need to be straight, monogamous and vanilla?

In a word, no. You be you, if that is straight, monogamous and vanilla, then great. If not, that makes no difference to me. Who you are attracted to, how many you are in relationship with and how kinky you are may come up in our sessions but only as they apply to what you want to work on. Let's talk!

Question 2: I have questions and I'm not ready to spend money yet, what can I do?

Click the green button just down the page to schedule a FREE Discovery Session. You can start the process of answering any questions you may have about the process and how my services can help you on your journey.

Question 3: Is this therapy of some kind?

Sex & Relationship Coaching is not psychotherapy. I am not a physician, psychiatrist, psychologist, licensed social worker, sex therapist or licensed marriage and family therapist, and I do not offer therapy, psychotherapy or medical advice. I do not offer massage or bodywork and I do not offer any services related to prostitution. The services discussed on this website are for education only and do not in any way include or relate to the Revised Code of Washington Chapters 9.68, 9A.86, 9A.88 and 18.225.

Question 4: Where are the sessions held?

All of the services I provide can be experienced in an online session and that is where I meet the vast majority of clients. If you are in the Olympia area, in person sessions can be arranged. Should the need arise, I can arrange in person sessions in much of western Washington & Oregon.

Question 5: What should I expect from a Discovery Session?

Discovery Sessions are a no-pressure, no-commitment place to get your questions answered. To see if you are comfortable with chatting with me online and can see yourself working together in this manner. Many times I use a simple breath work example so you can get a feel for how this would work with our being in an online format.

Question 6: What is the Somatica® method?

The Somatica® method combines the best aspects of talk based models with the hands on aspects of the somatic methods of coaching and bodywork. It creates a unique approach where sessions are quite experiential in relation to sex and relationships. In this method, we always keep our clothes on, but these types of sessions are FUN! You will practice your new tools and skills in the session and leave with the confidence to put them into practice in your life.

Though some things may initially stretch you a bit, all of this work is done in a safe, supportive and non-judgmental manner. We set up a safer environment for you to share yourself vulnerably and grow in ways you haven’t even imagined. My goal is for you to leave feeling empowered to become stronger & more confident in the intimacy you have with yourself and others. Click HERE for more detailed information.

Question 7: How do I know if sex & relationship coaching is right for me?

Sex and relationship coaching might be a great fit if you’re looking for a more hands-on, experiential approach to enhancing your intimacy and connection. Unlike traditional sex therapy, which often focuses on resolving dysfunctions, my coaching blends research-based knowledge with practical, in-session learning.

I use the Somatic Method to help you not only address challenges but also expand and enhance your sexual and emotional experiences. If you’re ready to go beyond problem-solving and dive into strengthening and transforming your relationships, coaching can offer quicker, lasting change with the tools and confidence to make a real impact in your daily life.
