About Mary Ludwick

Your Partner Through Life's Pivotal Moments

I'm Mary Ludwick, and I believe that life's most difficult transitions can become doorways to profound growth—when you have the right support.

Life Pivot Healing was born from my own journey through grief, loss, and the quiet moments where everything I thought I knew shifted beneath me. I understand what it feels like when the person you were no longer fits the life you're living. I know the courage it takes to admit you need support. And I've learned that healing doesn't follow a timeline—it unfolds in its own rhythm.

My Approach

My work is grounded in compassion, presence, and the belief that you already hold the wisdom you need. My role is to create a safe, judgment-free space where that wisdom can emerge. Together, we'll explore:

  • What feels uncertain or unfinished in your life right now

  • What you're ready to release, redefine, or reimagine

  • What kind of future you want to create—even when you can't see it clearly yet

This isn't about fixing you. It's about walking beside you as you navigate change, find your footing, and reconnect with what matters most.

Training & Certifications

I'm in the early stages of building my client practice, which means you'll receive my full attention and care as I establish Life Pivot Healing as a trusted resource for people navigating life's pivots. I approach this work with humility, dedication, and a genuine commitment to your wellbeing.

My Philosophy

I practice from a place of both/and rather than either/or. You can be grieving and growing. Uncertain and hopeful. Strong and in need of support. My work honors the full complexity of what it means to be human during times of change.

Whether you come to me for resilience coaching, energy work, or both, my commitment is the same: to offer you steady, compassionate support as you navigate your next chapter with clarity and confidence.

What I Bring to Our Work Together

  • Deep listening without judgment or rushing to solutions

  • Customized support tailored to your unique situation and needs

  • Practical tools grounded in evidence-based grief education and resilience practices

  • Energy work when aligned, to support relaxation and nervous system regulation

  • Respect for your pace because healing doesn't follow anyone else's timeline

  • Fresh perspective and genuine presence—I show up fully for each person I work with

Who I Work Best With

My clients are often:

  • Navigating loss, whether recent or long-held

  • In the midst of major life transitions (career changes, relationship shifts, health challenges)

  • Feeling untethered or unsure of their identity after significant change

  • Successful and capable, but sensing that something needs to shift

  • Ready to invest in themselves and their healing journey

Beyond the Work

I understand personally what it means to rebuild your life when everything shifts. I know what it's like to question everything you thought you knew about yourself and to find your way forward when the path isn't clear. This lived experience, combined with my training, informs every session I offer.

Let's Connect

I offer a complimentary 20-minute introductory call so we can explore whether we're a good fit to work together. There's no pressure—just an opportunity to ask questions, share what you're navigating, and see if this feels right for you.

I'm happy to answer any questions about my training, approach, or how we might work together.
