About Me
Kelly Graver
Relationship Coach / Wellness Counselor
With over 15 years of experience in the personal development space, Kelly Graver is the founder, head coach, and Chief Mentor at Connected Hearts Coaching. Kelly is a trained Behavioral Scientist, Wellness Counselor, and relationship expert with an extensive background in Psychology. Her wide range and diverse education in psychological methodologies include Health Psychology, with an emphasis on the Biopsychosocial model, Developmental Psychology, Positive Psychology, Sexual Psychology, Somatic Psychology, and Attachment Theory. She is certified in a variety of Therapeutic Modalities such as Internal Family Systems (also known as “Part Work”), Relational Trauma Therapy, Organic Intelligence, Mindfulness Meditation, and Stress Management.
Kelly’s philosophy merges the best of Eastern and Western practices as she is a deep believer in the healing power of nature and spiritual alchemy. Alchemy is a process of remembering who we are, uncovering our pure spirit, and expressing it. Kelly believes that when we do that, we transform our physical selves, our lives, others, and the world. She strives to bring consciousness, self-awareness, accountability, and intentionality to body, mind, spirit, to empower people in life and love.
Kelly is a writer, a public speaker, and a truth seeker. Laughter is something that comes naturally to her, and with it, the ability to make others laugh too. She recognizes that laughter and tears are very close cousins, which enables her to better understand and adjust to the human condition, further deepening her capacity to access joy. This is something she wishes to share with and teach others.

My Approach
I believe it is everyone's birthright to be healthy, happy and loved. My approach is founded in the values of deep compassion, empathy, non-judgment, strengths-focused, and open-mindedness. I seek to provide an environment where I can help my clients reveal authenticity without misunderstanding, labeling, or rejection, to teach them that vulnerability is about loving all of you.
As a seasoned relationship coach, I am dedicated to helping individuals and couples build strong and fulfilling connections. With a deep passion for fostering healthy relationships, I provide guidance and support to clients as they navigate the complexities of love, communication, and personal growth. Together we will embark on a journey to heal from trauma, communication breakdown, trust issues, sexual issues, infidelity, etc. Whether you're single and seeking love, navigating the complexities of partnership, looking to strengthen your existing relationships, or you simply need a boost of confidence, I've got your back.
With a background in psychology and extensive experience in relationship counseling, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my coaching practice. I firmly believe that every individual has the potential to create and maintain meaningful relationships, and I am committed to empowering my clients to achieve this.
My coaching style is all about empowering you to take control of your own love life and personal wellness. I believe that by focusing on strengths and possibilities, we can overcome challenges and transform relationships. Through compassionate listening and open-mindedness, I create a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients to explore their emotions and express their needs. I believe in infusing a little humor into the coaching process. After all, laughter is the best medicine, especially when it comes to matters of the heart.
In our coaching sessions, I employ evidence-based strategies, communication techniques, conflict resolution skills to help clients deepen emotional intimacy. I work collaboratively with clients to identify their goals and develop personalized action plans that promote growth and connection.
My ultimate goal is to inspire and empower individuals and couples to create lasting and fulfilling relationships. I am deeply committed to the success and happiness of my clients, and I am honored to be a part of their journey towards love and fulfillment.
