About Maia
My name is Maia Berens. I am the online relationship coach, expert and author. I have been successfully telephone coaching for over 10 years, and I know what it takes to do relationship coaching on the phone. I have coached countless people to improve their relationship life and develop long-term successful relationships.
I not only have my own long-term successful relationship of 23 years, but I have gotten extensive experience by working and collaborating for over 18 years with the world famous relationship author of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, John Gray. This winning combination helps me understand exactly how to help you create the confidence in yourself and turn it into the successful relationship you want.
Recently I helped a man clarify his thoughts and gain confidence to speak his truth to a woman he was dating. His first attraction was great but things about her started surfacing that didn’t suit him.
In the past he would have gone on with the relationship until it fell apart in a negative, dramatic way. Instead they are now seeing each other just once a week and taking it slower. He feels empowered and she doesn’t feel hurt and upset by his “going into his cave”. Maybe this relationship will work out in the long run but even if it doesn’t he now knows the importance of self-responsible communication and having support while learning these tricky relationship skills.

“The last 6 months working with Maia has been the most effective personal development work I’ve ever done. And I’ve been doing this kind of work for 10 years! The Pumpkin Coaching experience has taught me to gain new perspectives and replaced the critical voice in my head. Maia will go to any lengths with her desire to help. She’s running a business but I never feel like she’s running a business. I knew we were an immediate fit as soon as we spoke. Her sincerity and authenticity just shines through.” Keith Frank, Las Vegas NV

I have supported a woman who’s been married four times unsuccessfully to find the relationship of her dreams. She no longer sees herself as having to settle for less. She is learning how to tell her partner what is truly going on in a loving and powerful way.
Another woman has begun the relationship of her dreams. She finally learned the secrets of attraction and self-confidence and is headed towards a lifetime of happiness with her man.

“Maia has a way of zeroing in on me and what is going on. Then we can look at what the deepest part of me is saying, feeling, thinking, wanting. Finally she supports me in looking at how I can achieve the solution or result I want. Weeks later we are still referring and realizing from that initial experience/issue/aha!” Jamie Wishart, President Great Graphics, Petaluma CA

“During the time I spent Pumpkin Coaching with Maia, I learned to listen to my inner voice. Maia’s exceptional gift of listening and asking questions allowed me to get in touch with a freer, more authentic self. I felt really heard and understood and probably for the first time, I didn’t feel I needed to apologize about who I am. Thanks for your warmth, wisdom and care.” Miryam Sarnat, Santa Monica CA

“I have become focused and conscious and have the confidence to speak about difficult subjects. It is because Maia is so gentle in her guidance. There are no hard edges with her. She brings out the positive in everybody and helps them share their very personal situations comfortably.” Kerstin Morgan, Financial Sales, Los Angeles CA

We have all heard about teachers who have great things to offer but seem to ignore them in their own lives. I will never offer you anything to do that I haven’t done myself. I walk what I talk.

“I‘ve known Maia for over 15 years as loyal friend, writing collaborator, and colleague. One of the many things that I admire about Maia is her passion and commitment to personal and spiritual growth. It’s contagious! Beware! If you stick around her, you’ll probably be infected and your life will never be the same.” Lael Belove, Professional, Personal and Soul Coach, Writer, Spoon-bender and Business Woman, Badger CA
