About
Hi,
I'm Mary Ann
I’ve spent most of my life as an educator — teaching piano, homeschooling my kids, and working with children in community settings. Over the years, I was always the one who ended up with the “challenged” students. You know, the ones who struggled to sit still, to focus, to learn the way others did. I had the patience, but more importantly, I had the belief they just needed a different approach.
When I discovered brain integration, it felt like everything came full circle. It was the missing link between what I believed in my heart and what I could now support with my hands. I think of it like this: your brain is like a stream of water flowing down a hill. It knows exactly where it wants to go. But over time, life can place rocks in that stream: stress, trauma, disconnection, even injury. The water doesn’t stop, it just finds a longer, harder, more exhausting route. My work is about removing those “rocks” so the brain can flow the way it was always meant to. Naturally, effectively, without force.
I’ve seen it firsthand in my own daughter and in close friends. I’ve seen the light come back in their eyes. I've watched parents go from discouraged and defeated to hopeful and relieved. This work matters. Not because it “fixes” people (because I don’t believe anyone is broken) but because it clears the path for the brain and body to do what they were always meant to do.
My mission is simple: To offer real, lasting help for those who feel stuck so they can learn, focus, and thrive without being labeled or medicated. To support parents who just want to see their child succeed. To empower adults who are realizing for the first time that their struggles have a name... and that there’s a better way forward.
