About me
NOTE: I'm not available until January 2nd. Happy New Year!
Hi there! Sam here. I've been at this since 2015, so you can trust that I've done a lot of work to make sure I feel safe and you feel comfortable.
Keep reading to learn more about me and for directions on how to move forward with a session! I do things very differently than most people on this site.
If you read nothing else in my profile: at least expect that your session with me will have my full attention and awkward times that we'll both be able to treat as if it's perfectly normal for whatever just happened to happen.
If you're a neuronormative person, you likely won't realize that I have ADHD because I don't have a whole lot of what you expect to be the "typical symptoms." Instead, I'm level-headed yet a little random at just the right time.
If you're a bit more neurodiverse, I 100% empathize with this dumb world of Not Talking About Things We Actually Think But Don't Say Out Loud. You don't have to worry about that with me. I do that, but with a lot of care and empathy towards you.
Everything you need to know about me is outlined below (and I tried to make it pretty but asterisks is the best I can do when I'm on desktop and have no idea how to make emojis appear on Windows... whelp. Just imagine I'm making this really fun)
*************TYPICAL GENERAL/ LOGISTICAL INFORMATION*********************
At this time I am only taking session requests to see me in my cuddle room in Woburn, which is in a professional office setting with a queen size daybed. All new clients must book a 2 hour session first-- the first half hour we'll spend in the indoor cafe downstairs and we'll spend the next hour and a half in my cuddle room. There is free parking in a garage and elevator access to my room's floor if you have mobility issues.
TBD: City incall sessions. I've worked with Arts at the Armory to book sessions before and I'm working on securing a recurring day that I work out of their Lavender Room. If you're interested in that, reach out so I know to reach out to you about scheduling that!
Did you know that Cuddle Comfort gets a percentage of every session I do through here? It's true! That's how the site is viable and functions for everyone. So attempting to give or get contact info before we use their booking feature is against the site policy because it may look like to them I'm trying to circumvent the fee they're owed OR it may look like you're trying to get services that aren't cuddling from me (which btw, I don't entertain)-- so please follow these directions for speedier booking on both of our ends!
1. Reach out to me and introduce yourself (share as much or as little as you want!), and propose a couple days and times that might work for you (remember, if you're a new client you must do a 2 hour session for your first session and a 4 hour session if I'm coming to you). Note that I don't take questions via Cuddle Comfort-- I have a step later in the process that answers nearly any and all questions I've heard over the past 9+ years I've been doing this.
2. I'll respond and tell you what days might work for me and use the "Request booking" button at the top of our DM page, and you'll need to accept it on your end once I put it through. THIS IS A TENTATIVE TIME UNTIL THE REST OF THESE STEPS ARE COMPLETED.
3. Once we are scheduled and Cuddle Comfort has our booking on our end, I will send you a link to my own site that will lead to a 20-minute orientation video on what to expect for your first session with me. I do this in place of having a phone consultation, but if after watching the video you still want to talk on the phone with me before a session, you can do so for a $100 fee (consider it a deposit on the session-- I'll apply the credit to the session cost)
There is a word I ask you to remember in the middle of the video to make sure you're listening, and you MUST text or email it to me so we can move forward. If you don't at least three hours before our session, I'll cancel our session.
4. Show up for your session and cuddle!

Mondays 1-8:30pm
Tuesdays 1pm-7pm
Wednesdays 11am-6pm
Thursdays 1pm-8:30pm
Fridays 1pm-6pm
NO Saturdays

************ABOUT ME*********************
I've been cuddling professionally since the end of 2015, and I've been doing this full time since 2017. While I do other things such as business coaching, online course creation, and most recently writing a book (Happy While Hermitting Handbook, google it or look it up on Amazon :D), the bulk of my work life is in one-on-one cuddle sessions. I enjoy having them because I get to see you as an individual feel more relaxed and happier than when you walked in, and that's a tangible result that's satisfying to see :)
I've been told I help raise people's energy levels for sessions when they're depressed and calm their anxiety if they're worried. I make great conversation with virtually anyone, but especially for those that work in finance, STEM, authors, and other creative and/or analytical careers. For fun, I enjoy various types of partner dancing, writing, watching anime, and reading trashy web novels (currently reading "My Vampire System).
I'm particularly sensitive to people that use professional cuddling to supplement their mental health. I've worked with people that have/are: ADHD, depression, anxiety, autism, PTSD, asexual, acute trauma due to a loss. If you have any of these, please contact me with your situation so I can better understand and craft a session that will best help you.
I DON'T work well with people that don't take ownership of their actions or their feelings. I do my best to show up and be transparent in owning my experience, and I'm here in sessions to help you regulate and process feeling safe while hearing that. That said, if you tend to insult, belittle, threaten, or physically assault people (in particular women) when they do that, I am likely not the right cuddler for you unless you're looking for someone to help you stop doing that.
