About

We, Mark and Mildred Clark, are not just coaches who studied relationships––we are a couple who has lived marriage, navigated real challenges, and spent years helping other couples do the same.

We know what it's like to have to work through miscommunication, disappointment, stress, and the many seasons that marriage and family bring. We also know what it takes to stay, to grow, to rebuild, and to become stronger together.

Our role is not to judge you or take sides. Our role is to guide you, give you tools, and help you have the conversations that many couples avoid––but desperately need.

At Love Alive, we help couples committed to the marriage and willing to do the intentional work required to rebuild, strengthen, and intentionally grow their relationship. Through guided conversations and honest coaching, we help couples move from frustration and disconnection to clarity, connection and a stronger foundation––together.

Many couples come to us feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of what to do next. Our goal is to not just to help couples stay together, but to help them build a relationship that is strong, healthy, and built to last.

We are certified SYMBIS facilitators and certified transformational coaches––specializing in marriage and family relationships. With over 45 years of marriage experience and more than 20 years of working with couples, our mission has been to walk alongside couples as they navigate the ebbs and flows of marriage and family life. It brings us great joy to see couples grow and develop strong, healthy, and lasting relationships––walking together in unity in spirit, soul, and body.

We believe strong, healthy marriages can be built on purpose, and we consider it an honor to walk alongside couples as they do the work.

Testimonials

I just want to take a second and show love to two wonderful people who have always been nothing but good to me from day one, Mr. and Mrs. Marc and Mildred Clark, Two beautiful people, with wonderful souls--always telling the truth, never one sided and always giving great wisdom and advice. Both of y'all have inspired my life on so many levels, and I know that making a post isn't much, but I thank y'all so much for all y'all have done for me and my wife, Thank you both 100 times over.

- Dr. Nikki Harris

As a divorcée trying to navigate the turbulent waters of "Christian" dating, I sought the guidance and support of the Clarks. I've attended their workshops, dinner discussions and had one-to-one sessions. Together, they helped me to rebuild my desperately deteriorating relationship muscles. With every encounter, I've grown and can honestly say I'm better equipped to keep Love Alive for and with the man God has for me. I've been truly blessed by their presence in my life, as well by their authentic, faith-guided ministry of love! Thank you Mildred and Mark.

- Sharolyn Payton (RIL)

Absolutely loved their seminar! We received invaluable tools that will empower us to have the quality marriages thar God intended!

Frequently Asked Questions

How do we know if coaching is right for us?

Coaching is a good fit for couples who are willing to have honest and hard conversations, are open to learning new tools, and are willing to do the work required to improve their relationship. You don't have to have everything figured out, and you don't have to be in complete agreement––just willing to work on your relationship together. The Discovery Call is a great place to start to see if coaching is the right next step for you.

What is the Discovery Call?

The Discovery Call is a free 30-minute call where we get to know you, hear a little about what's going on in your relationship, and help you determine the best next step. This call is relaxed and confidential. You can ask questions, learn how coaching works, and decide whether or not you would like to move forward. There is no pressure or obligation.

What types of couples do you work with?

We work with dating, engaged, and married couples who want to build, rebuild, or strengthen their relationship and are willing to do the intentional work required for a healthy and lasting marriage.

Our coaching is specifically designed around the dynamics and structure of traditional marriage, which is our area of focus, experience, and training. Because of this specific focus, we may not be the best fit for every couple, but we believe everyone deserves support and encouragement in building healthy relationships, and we encourage individuals to see the support that best fits their needs.

Do you only work with couples who are struggling?

No. While some couples come to us during difficult seasons, we also work with couples who simply want to strengthen their relationship, improve communication, reconnect, or be more intentional about their marriage. Healthy marriages don't happen by accident––they happen on purpose, and many couples work with us for enrichment, not just for restoration.

How often do we meet?

Most couples meet with us twice per month, which gives enough time to work on new tools and apply what we discuss between sessions. Some programs are structured weekly, such as premarital coaching, while enrichment sessions can be scheduled as needed.

Is coaching the same as counseling or therapy?

No. Coaching is not therapy. Coaching focuses on the present and the future, helping couples develop better communication, healthier habits, and practical tools to strengthen their relationship. While therapy often focuses on diagnosing and healing past wounds, coaching focuses on growth, skills, and building a stronger relationship moving forward.

What if my spouse is unsure about coaching?

This is very common. Often one spouse is ready before the other. We usually recommend starting with the Discovery Call so both of you can meet us, ask questions, and see how we work. Many hesitant spouses become more comfortable after the first conversation because they realize coaching is a safe, practical, and non-judgmental process.
