“Mary continues to be one of our top-rated presenters, even after 18 years of speaking at our yearly conference to return participants. We wouldn’t think of doing a conference without her.”

~Mandi Freger, Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology

I know firsthand …

… the challenge—and the reward—of finding a great event speaker. In addition to my 30 years in public speaking, I have spent more than 10 years developing, organizing, and managing large, multi-day conferences at a local, national, and even international level. I know all too well that the right speaker can make or break an event.

On this page, I share what I have to offer as a public speaker, including a taste of what you can expect from me. My hope is to make your task of choosing the right speaker as easy as possible.

Through my work with Her Holiness Sai Maa, I have presented on the spiritual dimension of psychology and healing. to audiences around the globe (Japan, Belgium, Germany, Canada, Ireland, France).

Multiple times each year, I have spoken to audiences of 750 and greater. In 2004, I founded the Center for Integrative Psychotherapy, enabling me to teach hundreds of hours on energy psychology and trauma recovery through conferences, educational workshops, videos, and clinical supervision. In addition, I served as the Conference and Educational Director, then the President of the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology (ACEP).
