ABOUT THE TRAINERS

Mary is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, however her formal training is secondary to the life training she received from her mother, Dr. Jane Nelsen, also a Marriage and Family Therapist and author of the Positive Discipline books and Serenity: Simple Steps for Recovering Peace of Mind, Real Happiness, and Great Relationships. From the earliest time she can remember her mother and father had her involved in respectful communication, encouragement, and focusing on solutions.

Mary loves being a wife to husband Mark and a mother to her son's Greyson, Reid and Parker. Since Mary's first love is being the mother of three young boys, it was a natural for her to become a Certified Positive Discipline Parent Educator and to share with others all she has learned (and is still learning) in parenting classes and workshops. She is also available for individual parent coaching.

Mary is a therapist whose own life is an example of the joy in living that can be found by living the principles and skills she teaches.
