BACKGROUND
Mary's long career has taken her through studies and work in both
conventional and alternative settings. Her first formal training was in
counseling. With an MS in clinical social work, she began her career as a
counselor in mental health and school settings. She soon saw the
limitations of the conventional approaches utilized in the clinics in which she
worked and began exploring alternative approaches.
Mary began the practice of meditation, and immediately saw its potential for
personal growth and healing. She left her counseling work to devote herself to
intensive study and practice of meditation in the Vedic tradition of India.
She taught meditation for many years and participated in many advanced courses.
Her studies expanded to include the study of Ayurveda, the science of health
originating in ancient India. Her first experience with hands-on healing
was in 1986 when she was trained and worked as an Ayurvedic therapist both in
the US and India. She also began to explore other systems of healing and
metaphysical thought in order to enhance her work, always seeking to find the
universal truths revealed through all systems.
In 1995, Mary started to work with subtle energies through exposure to the
work of Roman and Packer. She graduated from their Awakening Your
Lightbody course in 1996, soon returning to counseling to apply her experience
with meditation and the use of subtle energies for healing to that field. As a
hospice counselor, she was introduced to hands-on energy healing by a chaplain.
Seeing its value for supporting healing on all levels, she studied Reiki and
Healing Touch and was certified in Healing Touch in 1999.
Energy healing soon became her primary focus, and she introduced it to the
hospices in which she worked. In addition to providing energy healing in a
hospice and adult day health program, she established a private practice and
began teaching energy healing. She developed a series of workshops
entitled "Essential Energy Healing", incorporating principles from her
experience with meditation and emphasizing intuitive development. She also
taught energy work and spiritual healing through apprenticeships and mentoring.
Her CD, Everyday Energy
Healing: the Hands-on Healing CD contains the processes she used in
her introductory workshops.
Mary began recording her guided meditations at the request of students.
Her first CD, The Ease of Being, was the outcome of these requests.
Originally recorded and distributed to a handful of people, by now it has sold
thousands of copies. The overwhelmingly positive response to this CD has
inspired Mary and Richard to create more CDs.
Mary's work is constantly evolving and changing form as she remains open to
the many ways that her knowledge and gifts are called forth. She continues to
remain available for all of the roles she has played in the past, and is always
delighted when requested to serve in new and unexpected ways. She
recognizes that her interactions with clients and students are collaborations in
a mutual process of healing and learning and welcomes contact from those who are
interested in working with her in some way.
