Life Coaching,
Counseling, & Wellness

with Scott McGlothlen

Welcome to First Brick: Life Coaching, Non-Clinical Counseling, and Wellness For Men In The LGBTQ+ Community. I’ve rarely been the type of person to do things the traditional way and therefore I take a radically different approach to coaching. As a former social worker and lifelong learner of all things mental health and physical wellness, First Brick utilizes an integrative model and a holistic approach when troubleshooting issues, taking action, and finding resolutions.

Spouses & Partners

A supportive space where couples and more can explore the struggles and challenges of their relationships. We can determine tools and elements for a healthy future.

It is often debated as to who threw the first brick at the Stonewall Riots in 1969. But many experts agree that whoever threw it isn’t as important as what it truly represents. A single brick was used to shatter the status quo for the LGBTQ+ community, and we can also metaphorically use such a brick to shatter the habits and patterns we’ve adopted as individuals. However, the primary job of a brick is not to break things, but to build them. It is the start of a new foundation and a solid structure. And so the first brick can be the first step into sustainable self-growth.

Testimonials

  • Rob

    “I came to Scott when I was making major transitions in home and work, and didn’t have a plan. He helped me to make sense of things, come up with plans, and take care of myself mentally through it all. The journey isn’t quite over, but I’ll be continuing to work with Scott along the way. I can’t recommend him enough.”

  • Tonio

    "My sessions with Scott have been so vital for the important changes I’ve been making in my life. I struggled with proper guidance and meaningful approaches to personal roadblocks that I was worried I would never overcome. After just a few weeks with Scott, I had already started to feel like I was being given the emotional tools to overcome the physical and mental boundaries I had placed upon myself for so many years.”
