John Coaxum

Licensed Therapist Relationship Coach Pastor

ABOUT ME

I’m John, a licensed therapist, a relationship coach, and pastor with over 13 years of experience helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges. My work focuses on empowering people to embrace their true selves, build resilience, and foster healthy relationships. I educate different audiences around the world about mental health, and as an ordained minister, I’m also passionate about bridging the gap between mental health and faith, normalizing these important conversations within religious communities. Whether you’re seeking personal growth, relationship support, or organizational transformation, I’m here to help you move from where you are to where you want to be.


As a happily married husband and father, I understand the importance of strong, loving relationships and the role they play in personal and professional well-being. My own experiences as a husband and father deeply inform my work and drive my commitment to helping others create the fulfilling relationships they desire.

What's Different About Working w/ Me


With me you're getting "4 in 1":


Clinical – I bring the training and expertise of a licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, grounded in proven therapeutic methods and years of real-world counseling experience.


Pastoral – With over a decade of experience counseling, officiating marriages, and guiding people through life’s toughest seasons, I offer insight rooted in both compassion and biblical wisdom.


Experiential – I don’t just teach principles — I live them. With more than 10 years of experience teaching and leading men, women, and couples, and over a decade as a husband and father, I understand the everyday realities of relationships.
