The Heart On Fire or heart in flames is incorporated in our branding, because it signifies intense love, passion, burning desire, and devotion. This not only applies to romantic love BUT connections with people. This is called interconnectedness. So many people long for connection with others while other people have not fully experienced this. Sometimes because of fear, insecurities, and old wounds people either shut down and stay away from opportunities to connect OR "dive in" too quickly.
How we connect to others is often something people don’t really ever stop and think about but rather find themselves repeatedly disappointed or hurt by their experiences with others or lack thereof. How about this, stop and think about it right now. Do you feel fulfilled with your connections and relationships in your work and personal life? If you don't OR your answer is anything less than a resounding YES, then maybe you should give us a call to see how we might be able to help.
At Authentic Connections Coaching, LLC we help each individual or couple explore their connectedness and relationship with others and strategize, mapping out a plan to attain the goals they have or their vision of where they’d like to get to. We help you "live life on fire" so you can thrive and be the best version of you possible.

COUPLES REALIGNMENT

Individuals come into a relationship with "baggage" that all human beings have, not knowing that these issues will at some point cause a problem. In this program, an initial assessment is done to determine where the couple is at and what they need. Mary takes you through a structured psycho-educational program where couples get to know each other in a way they either never have or have veered off course from. Skills are taught such as in the areas of communication and effective coping mechanisms. Maladaptive patterns that have been causing problems (both big and small) are identified, and couples are taught how various facets of who they are have contributed to the bigger picture of where they're at. The result is a couple is able to find solutions for issues and problems that once kept them stuck.






We have several services for the individual looking for friendship or love connections and/or the couple who needs a realignment to help get back on track or improve and amplify the positive aspects of your relationship. You can also take advantage of our relationship coaching even if you are single. Relationship preparedness is key to creating a successful relationship.

For Healthier Connections

Communication Skills
Oftentimes, individuals feel like they are at a loss when trying to talk about things or express their thoughts and feelings. A build-up of emotions can completely sabotage any potential for success not only in romantic relationships BUT friendships and work relationships as well. Learning some communication skills can set you on the right path so the important relationships in your life flow easier.
Intimacy Enhancement
The Truth is there are many people who have not experienced healthy intimacy and connection. Many individuals and couples think intimacy is only sexual and do not realize the intimacy in any relationship starts outside of the bedroom. This oftentimes is due to having difficulty with attachment. Some have a pattern of getting involved too quickly or being afraid of commitment. The core reasons usually include getting hurt, let down, or extremely wounded in prior relationship experiences in their life whether as a child or adult. This leads to individuals who trust too much or not enough.
Conflict
Resolution
Many people do not learn in childhood how to resolve conflict effectively. This leads them to develop ineffective and sometimes damaging patterns due to poor coping skills. Because of this, people either avoid conflict or become confrontational. Neither work productively, leading to failure after failure. Remember conflict in relationships of all kinds is inevitable, so if you're lacking problem solving skills you will be disappointed AND be the disappointment to others in your life.
Skill Building
Our programs will teach and guide you towards gaining the skills you'll need to be successful in your relationships moving forward.

Why It Works
Benefits of Relationship Coaching
Relationship Coaching can lead a couple to reconnect thus reigniting the spark they once had. When a couple is able to navigate through their issues and problems with clarity and practical, healthy solutions, it pulls them together. Staying stuck in undiscovered patterns often makes couples feel like they'd be better off apart than together. At the very least, this creates a "wall" between them. The worst can be when they choose divorce. Discover the benefits of working collaboratively with Mary. She has an advanced level of experience working with couples and offers a personal, customized results-driven approach.
