About Melissa

My name is Melissa Chaplin and I have had the honor of serving the world-wide faith community through coaching since 2003.

My passion for thriving marriages led me to obtain a degree emphasis in Marriage and Family, as well as other applicable certifications. Following those, I have been blessed to come alongside a wide range of couples, from seriously dating couples to those married more than 50+ years, as well as couples from various cultural backgrounds. Whether the couples I am serving are tackling a common goal or focusing on enhancing their relationship, I am passionate about coming alongside couples to help them achieve their goals.

Having the great joy of serving cross-cultural workers for over 15 years, I am also passionate that my clients and their families thrive through the transitions inherent in their calling – including partnership development, departure, acculturation, leaving, and re-entry. In 2015, I published Returning Well: Your Guide to Thriving Back "Home" After Serving Cross-Culturally. (Visit www.ReturningWell.com for more details on this resource for cross-cultural servants in re-entry.)

As a Professional Certified Coach through the International Coach Federation with the spiritual gifts of teaching and shepherding, I fully invest myself in the coaching relationship. I delight in seeing people be set free to through the practical application of truth. My heartbeat is to live today in light of eternity, taking practical steps to love and obey Him.

PS: Are you wondering why there is a picture of rocks at the top of this page? Here’s the story: My husband and I were exploring the ruins of Bethsaida, Israel when we realized that this was the cardo—the “main drag” through town. Everyone who came to town likely walked this road…these rocks! Who came to Bethsaida? Jesus did. He healed a blind man there. These rocks remind me of the great privilege we have on this earth to walk in His footsteps—not just physically, but in how we live every moment of our lives
