About Me — Stephen Bickle, Relationship Coach
I’m a relationship coach based in Santa Monica, helping couples and individuals in Los Angeles and across the country rebuild connection, heal resentment, and create the kind of partnership that feels alive again.
But this work isn’t something I chose casually — it’s something I knew I had to do.
Why I Coach
Have you ever had a season of your life where you knew something needed to change — not just for your relationship, but for your heart, your spirit, the life you really wanted? I’ve been there. More than once.
My journey into relationship coaching didn’t begin in textbooks or classrooms. It began in the moments where my own relationship felt stuck, disconnected, or painful in ways I didn’t yet have the tools to fix. I realized that the version of love I wanted — real partnership, emotional safety, intimacy, and teamwork — required learning skills that no one ever taught me growing up.
“Our greatest gifts often grow in the garden of our deepest wounds.”
Healing my own patterns, learning how to communicate openly, build emotional intimacy, repair conflict, and understand my partner changed everything.
And once I experienced that transformation, I knew I couldn’t keep it to myself. Coaching became the natural extension of everything I learned — a way to help others reclaim the love, partnership, and connection they deeply want.
My Coaching Philosophy
Over the years, I’ve helped couples and individuals from Santa Monica, Los Angeles, and around the country learn how to communicate with honesty, rebuild trust, repair resentment, and reconnect in ways they hadn’t felt in years.
- I don’t take sides — I support the relationship, not one partner.
- I teach tools you can use immediately, not vague ideas.
- I help you understand each other’s inner world, not just fight better.
- I help men show up strong and grounded, and help women feel safe, connected, and understood.
Whether you feel like roommates, you keep having the same fights, or the intimacy has faded, coaching gives you a path back to each other.
