Mutual Inductance Calculation

I am wanting to calculate the mutual inductance between Coils. I currently have 4 coils: Driver, Primary, Secondary, and Load. I am wanting to find the mutual inductance between the Primary and Secondary Coils. I am modelling the coils in 2D Axisymmetric. The primary and secondary coils are muti turn multi layer coils. Each coil is set up using the muti-turn coil domain.
My question is how can I calculate the mutual inductance?
I can calculate the inductance of each coil and it is accurate but I am not sure how to calculate mutual inductance?
What is the difference between Muti-Turn Coil Domain and Coil Group Domain ?
By the looks of the fields I am not sure if the fields are going through my other coils.
I have attached my model, if any one could give me any help/ insight that would be great.
