GRAB LOVE BY THE BALLS!

Discover the secrets to lasting affection, joyful play, and unbreakable bonds — so you can thrive as a couple and inspire your next generation.

I help queer and POC couples who feel unseen and disconnected reignite their spark — through emotional safety, radical honesty, and playful connection.

Most couples don’t fall apart — they drift apart.

Does this sound like you?
You love each other, but somewhere in the noise of work, identity stress, and silence … you started feeling like roommates instead of lovers. The spark that once came naturally now feels forced.
You’re tired of miscommunication, shutdowns, and pretending everything’s fine.
You don’t want to just fix your relationship — you want to feel alive in it again.

What's the difference between a Coach, a Counsellor and a Therapist?

THERAPIST
Works through trauma, deep-seated psychological issues, or mental health concerns.

COUNSELLOR
Provides guidance and support through specific emotional or situational challenges.

COACH
Helps you grow, break patterns, and achieve practical results in life and your relationships.

Where my work fits in...

My coaching blends relationship psychology, nervous system awareness, and trauma-informed tools — all wrapped in real talk, compassion and science-backed strategies.

I don’t do diagnosis or therapy. I don’t ‘fix’ you because you are not broken. I help you understand your patterns, communicate better, rebuild connection, and create a relationship that feels like partnership, not performance.

What changes when you work with me...

Let's get to know one another...

I’m Maria — your Relationship Growth Coach for Queer and POC Couples.

I didn’t go to “Relationship Coach” school. I went deeper.

I studied human behavior, the unconscious mind, and the power of language — because that’s where connection really begins. I also dove into the nervous system and trauma, because let’s be honest — most of us grew up feeling like we didn’t quite belong. That kind of disconnection shows up in love until we name it, feel it, and learn new ways to relate.

My approach is kind, and direct — a mix of gentle truth-telling and bold accountability. I’m here to help you break old patterns, unlearn the stuff that never served you, and build the kind of love that feels like freedom, not performance.

Because love isn’t about perfection — it’s about presence.

Client Testimonials

Love notes from clients...

Before working with Maria, I was single for much too long. She helped me gain the confidence to get back on the horse, as they say. I've now met someone and it feels great!

Our relationship was pretty rocky, to say the least. After 3 months with Maria, we have a greater understanding of each other and can finally have conversations that don't turn into arguments.

I've battled with inner demons all my life, which made it difficult to come out, and even more difficult to process the outcome of coming out. Maria helped me build well balanced boundaries to feel safer in my shoes and and I walk taller and prouder than ever before.

Before working with Maria, we were stuck in a constant cycle of fighting and misunderstanding each other. It felt like no matter what we said, it came out wrong. After three months with her, we finally understand the patterns that were running our relationship — and more importantly, how to change them. Maria gave us tools and language that actually work. Now we can communicate clearly, repair faster, and feel connected again. We’re forever grateful for her guidance and the transformation it’s brought to our relationship.

We’d grown apart and lost the spark — craving intimacy anywhere but with each other. Working with Maria helped us reconnect on every level. We rediscovered our passion, started playing again, and now explore our desires together with openness and excitement. It feels like falling in love, but deeper.
