Coaching for Couples
If you and your partner are ready for the next step in intimacy, consider inviting Jim Benson aboard as your personal couples coach. Couples coaching — over the phone — is a powerful and convenient way to add spark and depth to your relationship.
In his work with couples, Jim calls on his background as an energy healer in private practice; professional life coach training and experience; his understanding of masculine and feminine polarity; and years as a tantra workshop leader and coach. Jim provides a container for all aspects of your relationship so the best parts can thrive.
Jim has taught tantra in the U.S. and abroad with Margot Anand, the creator of Skydancing® Tantra, and has studied with David Deida and Robert Frey. He has received professional coaching training at the Coaches Training Institute.
"It has been profoundly healing for me to be in the presence of a real man such as Jim. He truly embodies the important male archetypes of the King, the Warrior, the Magician and the Lover."
—Margot Anand, author of The Art of Sexual Ecstasy

Feedback from couples
“Jim brings a grounded presence, a deep toolkit, great listening and attunement, and lots of creativity and humor to his sessions with us. As a result of this work, we've experienced more authenticity and depth in our relationship, more spontaneity, and more willingness to trust and take risks. Yes!”
—Chris and Laine G., SF Bay area
"Setting up sessions with Jim was the best investment my husband and I have made in our relationship in a long time. If there are couples out there who want the support but who are wary about spending the money...don't hesitate! It's worth it! Jim works effectively and efficiently. In just a few sessions, my husband and I were feeling more freedom and intimacy in our relationship than we had in years. This kind of benefit is priceless. We appreciate Jim's professionalism, experience, humor, wisdom and compassion. My husband and I feel so grateful to have found just the right teacher at just the right time."
—Jackie Long, MA, yoga teacher
"Working with Jim is like having a powerful spirit guide who is intensely on my side and cares deeply about all of me. Our sessions are always profound and fun, and at the end I always feel that my divine soul is closer to the surface. After couples coaching with Jim for less than a year, my relationship with my fianceée is evolving into a depth of love that I always hoped was possible, but never knew how to manifest."
—Philip Heller, author and consultant
"Whenever Jeff and I are having one of our couples sessions with Jim I feel like he is a grounded magnet drawing me down into myself. I appreciate and value his ability to find and ask the questions that I long to answer for myself but can't find the words. It feels like he draws me out into the open so that I can breathe fresh air. Ahhhhhh, I am alive, I am human, I feel closer to myself.
—Cory McKenna
When Cory and I work with Jim, I experience his warmth, concern, humor, clarity and a kind of knife-edged precision on the issue(s) at hand. I come out of the session with work to do, understandings to integrate, and expanded love for my sweetheart. Often smiling a lot. What a blessing!
—Jeff McKenna
“Jim helped us create a sacred environment and guided us to deeper intimacy, sensual pleasure, and love. His presence is safe and strong. He quickly tuned in to what we needed and gave specific observations and suggestions that really served us.”
—San Rafael, CA couple (married for 30 years)
"Our phone sessions with Jim have been surprisingly powerful. Places we thought were dead in both of us are coming back to life, thanks to his persistent, yet gentle insight and suggestions. It's more than therapy — a lot more!"
—Rob and Renee T., NY
