About Magdalena

A decorative arrow with orange and yellow colors, featuring feather-like details near the arrowhead, pointing to the right.

I’m Magdalena Paccagnan, an ICF-trained relationship coach based in Hamburg, Germany, working with couples who feel emotionally distant, stuck in recurring conflict, or disconnected from the relationship they once shared — yet still want to rebuild closeness, safety, and understanding.

I work with couples online, supporting clients in Germany and worldwide who are seeking meaningful, lasting change in their relationship.

In my work, I combine emotional attunement with clear structure — because safety alone isn’t enough for change, and structure alone isn’t enough for connection.

My work is grounded in the belief that most relationship struggles are not caused by a lack of love, but by unmet emotional needs, unspoken resentments, and patterns that slowly create distance over time.

I care deeply about creating a space where people feel safe enough to slow down, reflect, and reconnect — without shame or pressure.

Online relationship coaching for couples

I offer online relationship coaching for couples, allowing you to attend sessions from the comfort of your home — wherever you are located.

Couples I work with often describe feeling:

  • emotionally distant or disconnected

  • stuck in the same arguments

  • unsure how to communicate without conflict

  • disconnected despite still caring deeply

If this feels familiar, it does not mean your relationship is broken.

My role is to help couples slow down, understand what is happening beneath conflict, and develop new ways of relating that feel calmer, clearer, and more connected.

Why couples choose to work with me

Couples choose to work with me because I offer a calm, structured, and emotionally safe approach to relationship coaching.

My clients often value that I:

  • focus on patterns rather than blame

  • create space where both partners feel heard

  • work gently but directly with emotional distance and resentment

  • combine reflection with practical tools couples can use in daily life

I work with couples at different stages of their relationship — including long-term partnerships, marriages, and couples navigating major life transitions.

My approach to relationship coaching

My work is informed by relational and attachment-based perspectives, with a strong emphasis on emotional safety and responsibility.

In our sessions, we explore:

  • how past experiences shape present reactions

  • how unspoken needs turn into distance or conflict

  • how to communicate without escalation or withdrawal

  • how trust can be rebuilt through consistent, meaningful change

I often work with couples using structured tools that support the resolution of unresolved resentments and emotional injuries, creating space for honesty, accountability, and repair.

This approach is especially supportive for couples seeking long-term relationship change, not quick fixes.

Professional Training

I am certified through the FRCA, founded by Dr. Wyatt Fisher.
This training informs my work around emotional safety, communication patterns, attachment, and relational repair.

Who this work is for — and who it is not

Relationship coaching with me may be a good fit if:

  • you are both willing to attend sessions

  • you want to understand yourselves and each other more deeply

  • you are open to reflection, responsibility, and gradual change

This work may not be the right fit if:

  • one partner is unwilling to participate

  • you are seeking quick communication techniques only

  • there are ongoing abusive or unsafe dynamics (additional support is recommended)

Working together

I work with couples online, supporting clients in Hamburg, across Germany, and internationally.

Sessions are held in a confidential, calm setting designed to help both partners feel safe enough to speak honestly and listen openly.

If you’re unsure whether relationship coaching is right for you, I invite you to start with a free 15-minute consultation. This is a no-obligation conversation where we can explore your situation and see whether working together feels like the right next step.
