Close your eyes. Imagine when you can...
- Go on VACATION without bringing work with you
- Go to the doctor and not have HEALTH ISSUES that are stress related
- OVERCOME the belief that you are not worthy and feel you are ENOUGH
- Can be your TRUE SELF, without wearing a facade and the feeling that you are a FRAUD
- Have a career you love without having to miss your KIDS GAMES
- Have a job that doesn't interfere with your RELATIONSHIPS
- Can REST and not fall into bed at 1AM each night
- Stand strongly in your leadership position because you are not a PEOPLE PLEASER
- RELAX versus feeling anxious and guilty because you are able to calm that CRITICAL voice in your head
- DECIDE what you want to say YES to for YOURSELF
I work with high-achieving women who are done with being stressed and overwhelmed at the expense of their health, relationships, and happiness.
If you are someone that is ready to say "no" to things that don't support your dreams, then let's collapse time with a VIP DAY!
- I've seen clients who have been in therapy for years and still have their problems because the focus was on the past. The focus was never on the future, the solution, the big goals.
- I've created the Radical Shifts blueprint that collapses time. We will set the foundation of all the work to come, and then go deep in to the beliefs and patterns holding you back.
- You'll have transformation because you will receive accountability, support, and concrete tools. Not just a simple 50-minute session to tide you over to the next session.
If you're still stumbling around trying to get unstuck, we are going to take care of that.
- We will move through what would normally take years, or not at all, without the Radical Shifts VIP program. Followed by in-depth 1:1 coaching for an abbreviated time.
- Through this proven-results based-method, we will collapse time. No more waiting to feel amazing. No more drowning in overwhelm.

Mary was phenomenal to work with! She helped me get a promotion within two months of working with her, and I never would have had the confidence before working with her. She is passionate and enthusiastic. Melanie P.

"This program changed my life. I was lost after my son went to college. I felt empty. None of my friends were the same age and I had no one to talk to. Mary, thank you again for helping me find myself. For the first time ever, I'm doing something I'm passionate about and it's given me so much energy. I'm Alayna 2.0!

WHO KNEW STRESS COULD MAKE YOU GO BLIND?
As a former Executive Director of a national human service agency, I was burnt out, leading to multiple health issues, including temporary vision loss in my left eye and doctors thought I had multiple sclerosis.
It ended up being inflammatory issues, all brought on by stress. Even as a licensed therapist myself, I was not able to be objective enough to see how my desire to please and be "over-responsible" was impacting my health and relationships.
When I dropped out of the corporate world, I went back to private practice and met countless women that did not feel worthy or deserving of putting themselves first. If they did, they did so with guilt. These are all amazing and loving, bright women.
THAT'S WHEN I DECIDED TO COMBINE MY 30+ YEARS AS A LICENSED TRAUMA THERAPIST WITH MY BUSINESS EXPERIENCE AND CREATED THE EMPOWERMENT SYSTEM.
Throughout the program, we use my Empowerment System to help shine a light on what is blocking you so you live your life knowing you are in charge. Suffering from burnout, unhappiness, or emptiness is often a symptom of a larger problem. You are worthy of having the life you are longing for.
I am a trauma-informed coach and I use contemporary neuroscience to help my clients create sustained results.
My approach includes, but is not limited to:
Cognitive behavioral psychology
Neuroplasticity
Emotional Freedom Techniques
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)
Somatic psychology
- Meet with me through livestreaming video via any connected device. Or you can join the audio by phone.
- Receive all lessons as recorded videos to review what was covered.
- Receive an additional video lesson after each session.
- Learn through experiential homework -affirmations-meditations-reflections-checklists-worksheets and more.
- Receive a weekly newsletter with additional tips.
- Access to me through text support in between sessions.
My program will help you if you ever:
-
- Have a hard time making a decision because you are afraid your boss will hate it?
- Wake up and think "is this all there is"?
- Feel like a failure despite your achievements?
- Say yes when your gut is screaming "no"?
- Feel burnt out like your life is nothing but your job with no end in sight?
- Been unhappy when you got a promotion or recognition because you worry someone will figure out you don't know what you are doing? (even though it's not true)
- Feel like you are not enough despite all you do?
- Neglect your personal needs like medical appts, meals, rest?
- Beat yourself up for making mistakes?
- Are you always the first one in the parking lot and the last to leave and you worry what people will think if you do have to leave?
- Settle for less, at work or in your relationships?
- A success in many areas of your life but you are unhappy, unfulfilled, or feel unappreciated
- Measuring your value by your productivity
- Staying busy in order to escape personal problems
- Letting self-doubt crush your career or relationship goals.
- Feel like you are not enough. You walk around full of anxiety and overwhelm and you're exhausted from doing for others
- Juggling a million things but feel like you are not getting anywhere because you are so stressed and tired
- Feeling the pressure to do well at work, be a good mom, be a good wife, eat right, exercise, and all the things
- Working so hard for all you have in life and now you're not sure if you want to just throw it all away, you still feel empty
- Over it. You are ready to discover how to achieve joy.
If you nodded your head yes to any of these, my program can help you.
