You long to feel deeply connected to your partner again
…to talk and laugh together, to spend time together that satisfies your soul, to not only know you have a partnership that’s grounded in love and support but to feel it through and through.
There are times when that connection feels strong—but at other times you and your partner can seem so far apart.
You wish you could recapture the togetherness you used to fall into so easily.
You don’t doubt your relationship: your love is still there, your commitment hasn’t wavered.
But more often than you’d like to admit, the rigors of life have snuck in, slowly dulling your spark. These ‘rigors’ have familiar names such as…
• work stress
• financial strain
• kids’ schedules
• competing demands
• fatigue and overwhelm
• health issues
• and more recently, …the fear and isolation as a result of our global pandemic.
Some (or possibly all!) of these stressors have walked into your life and seeped into your relationship. You know they’re there because they create tell-tale symptoms, such as…
• heated conversations
• increased fighting
• failure to empathize
• less physical touch
• lack of intimacy
• fights coming out of nowhere
• inability to see your partner’s side
• and a rapid rise in walking out of conversations mid-way through

Every long-term, committed relationship is susceptible to these stressors, and at some point, we all fall prey to one or many of them.
All relationships go through a natural series of ebbs and flows. We have periods where we feel connected—sometimes deeply so—and then periods where the connection isn’t nearly as strong.
Likewise, every relationship goes through crises. These crises can be personal—like a betrayal of trust or a shift in what one partner wants or values—or they can be global, like the Coronavirus pandemic that’s currently affecting us all.
No matter what the stressor or crisis, however, we can learn how to come together and lay a strong foundation for a relationship that’s vibrant, harmonious, and resilient—not just some of the time, but MOST of the time.
We can gain more control over the ebbs and flows in our relationship, so that we’re “ebbing” less and “flowing” more.
And we can have the deep connection and loving, effective communication we’ve been longing for with our partner.
Given everything going on in our world today, if there is ever a time that deeper connection is needed in our primary love relationship, it’s now.
Which is why I created A Mindful Love Course—a 5-week online course for couples that teaches research-based principles and skills for deepening your connection and navigating conflict lovingly and skillfully.

Understanding what makes relationships thrive and flourish has been a focus my entire life. I felt this yearning from a very early age, and it has propelled me through all of life’s major decisions, such as obtaining my Masters in Counseling Psychology from Vermont College in 1985 with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Counseling, and then, having the privilege of studying with Walter Kempler, M.D. in Los Angeles, a master clinician, who founded Gestalt Family Therapy.
Several years later, this yearning also led me to accept an invitation from a colleague to attend a workshop led by John Gottman, where I was one of 12 clinicians hand-picked—from their first two or three workshops—to be the Gottman Institute’s first clinicians. Together, we met with John and Julie Gottman twice a month for several years, to discuss and refine what is now known as The Gottman Method Couples Therapy.
This was followed by the immense honor of being asked to be one of their original six Master Clinicians. I trained clinicians in three different countries on how to become a Certified Gottman Therapist. I co-presented the first Art and Science of Love workshop off the West Coast (in Chicago).
And thanks to that same yearning, I spent the next 20 years rubbing shoulders with some of the finest clinicians in couples therapy—learning, practicing and teaching through the Gottman Institute and as a presenter of The Art and Science of Love workshop.
Those experiences, as well as the work and influences of other great clinicians and teachers such as Sue Johnson, have ushered me along my own path as a therapist for the last 35 years.
Now, I can think of no better way to use my clinical experience and acquired expertise than to help YOU access the proven skills and strategies I’ve seen help marriages repair, heal, and flourish—so that you can create the resilient, harmonious relationship of your dreams.
“Connie Feutz is an extraordinarily gifted couples therapist. I would send my own family to her in a heartbeat. I have great admiration for her abilities.”

Here’s how A Mindful Love Course works…
During the 5-week online course, you’ll receiving the following each week:
One recorded lecture presented by me, Connie Feutz, teaching you about the key ingredients of a vibrant, harmonious, and resilient relationship, as well as enlightening and highly practical exercises to complete with your partner throughout the week. You’ll receive an email notification each Saturday at 10:00 am PT letting you know that that week’s videotaped lecture, the written resources, and the exercises are now available on your dashboard. They are there for you to view at your convenience!
One LIVE session for Q&A, led by me, the following Saturday morning, 9:30 a.m. PT where all course participants can ask questions about your specific relationship needs, as well as learn from the collective experience of the group. These sessions will be held on Zoom and will be recorded in case you can’t attend the session live.
Access to a private Facebook group where participants can ask questions and take part in discussions with other course participants, as well as myself.
Please note: Taking part in any aspect of the course is optional, as is the choice to refrain from acknowledging your name on the live lecture and Q&A sessions through Zoom. Anyone wishing to remain anonymous during the Q&A will be able to. People will be encouraged to email their questions to Connie before the Q&A.
“With warmth, smiles, intelligence and great perception, Connie led us to a great and positive transformation of our relationship and to a deeper understanding of aspects of ourselves and of
each other.”

If you were to hire me for private couples therapy,
my current rate is $300 per hour.
And given that I only conduct couples therapy in the highly effective format known as Marathon Couples Therapy—day-long sessions that typically run 12-18 hours over the course of two days—you’re looking at a pretty large investment.
If you join A Mindful Love Course, you get all of the same tools, exercises, and expertise for the price of $450.
That’s an amazing savings—all while completing the course without setting foot outside your front door.
