I’m here to help you create the love you’ve been longing for. As a trauma-informed relationship coach, I blend somatic attachment healing, mindfulness, and tantric wisdom to help you break free from anxious patterns and build secure, fulfilling relationships.

Why do I do this work? Because I’ve lived it. I spent years feeling anxious in relationships, overthinking texts, doubting my worth, and repeating painful cycles. But through deep inner work—integrating science with spiritual wisdom—I transformed my love life. Today, I’m in a secure, loving relationship, and I’ve helped countless clients do the same.

Hi, I’m Janel

Attachment Coach, Janel Smith in a light beige dress posing indoors with white curtains and wearing gold bracelets.

I bring 14 years of experience working with individuals and couples, a background in clinical and somatic coaching, and extensive training in attachment theory, tantra, and nervous system regulation. My approach is warm, nonjudgmental, and deeply compassionate—because healing doesn’t happen through shame, but through understanding and self-love.

Love isn’t just something we find—it’s something we cultivate. I created the Grounded LOVE Method to help you heal from within and create relationships that feel secure, passionate, and aligned.

L: Living Joy – Cultivate appreciation, playfulness, and shared dreams to create a relationship that feels exciting and fulfilling.

O: Open Communication – Develop deep, honest conversations using nonviolent communication and conflict repair techniques.

V: Vibrant Sensuality – Reconnect to your body and pleasure through tantra, presence, and intimacy practices.

E: Emotional Security – Regulate your nervous system, heal attachment wounds, and create a foundation of deep trust.

By integrating science and spirituality, we bridge the gap between attachment theory, mindfulness, and tantric wisdom, creating a holistic approach to love and relationships.
