Christian Private Coach Referrals
Coach Julie Cole
ON MY PAPER
The Laura Doyle Certified Coach Community is a tight network of transformed women who are committed to practicing the skills and to supporting women in breakthrough. There are many Christians in the coaching body and I am proud to introduce you to some of them. Certain coaches host communities of their own, while others focus solely on coaching private clients. I invite you to check out their bios and explore their links. If you are desiring personal support, I take a small number of private clients myself and I'm confident you will find great options here.
For the purpose of this network, the definition of a Christian is someone who follows Jesus Christ, the one and only Son of God, believing in His earthly life, crucifixion on the cross, and resurrection from the dead. Biblical references include John 3:16, Romans 10:9, Acts 4:12, John 14:6, and Ephesians 2:8-9.
Private coaches handle all of their own appointment scheduling and payment arrangements.

Coach Darla Ferreira
Darla married the man of her dreams, lived her life for God since elementary school, and regularly attended church every week, so how in the world was she in a place where her husband couldn’t even tell her he loved her. What went wrong? She would say “I hate you” to him in her mind and felt stuck because she made a commitment to God to stay together. Her prayers led her to Laura Doyle’s 6 Intimacy Skills ™️, and she was amazed to have a better marriage within 2 weeks. Now her marriage feels dreamy. She's eager to assist others facing challenges like irreconcilable differences or betrayal, offering hope for revitalizing their marriages.

Coach Joanna Hughes
JOYPATH COACHING
In the beginning, his kindness and generosity felt like a beacon, a smile that was the sun on her horizon, but over time, their marriage became a desolate landscape. Despite their vow to avoid the bitter destiny of Joanna’s parents' failed marriage, by the seventh year, she found herself lost in the struggles of raising children, including a daughter with profound developmental disabilities, while her husband focused on his career. Her attempts to seek his attention only led to further estrangement and conflict. However, nineteen years into their marriage, she discovered Laura Doyle’s 6 Intimacy Skills™, which transformed her approach to their relationship. By relinquishing control, embracing respect, and focusing on self-care and gratitude, she rekindled their connection and saw her husband in a new light.

Coach Rachel Parrish
JOYFUL WIFE CLUB
Rachel’s story starts when she was a little girl, she dreamed to be a wife & mother… her dreams came true but not without heartache & pain. Things weren't always hard, there were joyous times but it seemed it got bad all of a sudden, but in reality, it was a slow fade of getting to that point. She felt like it was a never ending rollercoaster of ups and downs in her marriage, like she was to be like Job in the Bible and a painful marriage was her cross to carry. Things are no longer like that for her marriage thanks to these transformative skills. And she believes wholeheartedly there can be freedom for you too, and for you to have a JOYFUL marriage.

Coach Melanie Shively
Melanie was a young wife who believed that working hard and contributing were the keys to a loving marriage. Her focus was entirely on what her husband was doing—or not doing—and their interactions never seemed to meet her expectations, leaving her hurt and confused. She thought, If only he did X, Y, and Z, then I’d be happy! That mindset led to intense arguments, silent standoffs, and sporadic intimacy, until one day, she found herself on the brink of divorce. In a night of desperate prayer and Googling, God led her to Laura Doyle and the Six Intimacy Skills. Through these tools—and by the power of the Holy Spirit—God began to transform her heart and her marriage. He revealed a new way to connect with her husband—one that brought peace, playfulness, and intimacy. Today, she is a Certified Laura Doyle Relationship Coach and is passionate about helping others find hope and renewal in their marriages.

Coach Janelle Simpson

She discovered Laura Doyle's books and I Peter 3, and Jesus began to transform her from the inside out. Formerly a critical, controlling, resentful, and lonely wife, Janelle has been transformed by Jesus and the Six Intimacy Skills and now has a life full of joy, peace, redemption, and a new appreciation and unconditional love for her husband, 2 daughters, and 2 stepdaughters. She would love to come alongside you as you transform your marriage, or any other relationship, using these same skills, with Jesus at your side. There is truly HOPE for your marriage!
