Coach/Counselor Teacher/Trainer Author Professional Speaker
Mary
provides personal counseling to guide clients to overcome trauma and
blockages, as well as to shift “broken record” thinking patterns
that can keep an individual in a repetitive negative cycle that is
detrimental to the physical and mental health. With these newer
techniques she is able to guide the client to review past trauma, and
assist them to finish processing the traumatic event, removing the
shame, anger, and terror that might be still stuck in the event. This
enables them to move fully into the present. She is especially
skillful at helping clients determine beliefs they have that are
creating the reality they are experiencing.
Mary also has a coaching practice that
focuses on the development of a long-term plan that can be
professional, personal, or both.
Mary has trained hundreds of clinicians to date, and continues to instruct and guide new clinicians in her periodic TAB Training programs. Mary is a consultant for the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology (ACEP) certification program. She offers monthly group supervision meetings that provide support, additional instruction, and guidance to those using her methods with their clients.
In 2007, Mary and colleague Sheila Bender released The Energy of Belief: Psychology’s Power Tools to Focus Intention & Release Blocking Beliefs. This book is a self-help book for the general public to learn how to use the energy psychology method of touch and breathe. Mary has also begun to publish and release a series of e-Books with the first book, “If I Create My Own Reality, Why are You Still Here?”
During the past decade, Mary has lectured at national and international conferences. Her warm, witty, and authentic approach makes her a frequently sought after speaker.
