Mary Topolinski knows firsthand the challenges of parenting teens and adult children with mental health struggles, substance abuse, autism, and more. She’s walked this tough road herself, and after years of navigating crises, she’s discovered healing and strength—now she’s dedicated to helping parents like you find the same.
As the founder of Mary Topolinski Coaching, Mary is a Certified Life Coach and Board-Certified Mental Health Coach. With a combination of personal experience and professional training, she’s on a mission to empower parents of teens and adults facing difficult times, giving them the hope, tools, and support they need to reclaim peace and joy in their lives.
Whether through one-on-one coaching or group courses, Mary is here to walk alongside you, offering practical guidance and a compassionate ear when you need it most.
Mary’s heart is to serve those who feel lost or overwhelmed.
She’s also a women’s retreat speaker, support group leader, and serves on the advisory board o Just Be Held Ministries. Married to her husband Jeff since 1989, Mary is a proud military mom and the mother of three grown sons. Over the years, she’s mothered through many difficulties -so she knows what it means to keep going, even when the journey feels endless.
Her greatest joy is turning her own pain into hope for others. When she’s not coaching, you can find her hiking through the woods (her happy place!), crafting, or enjoying lunch with a friend.
