Hi! I'm Marian Meade. 

I specialize in helping couples and individuals who may be doing ok, but suspect that there's more to life. They've been putting others first, tolerating conflict and unsatisfactory relationships and may feel frustrated, bored, unhappy or overwhelmed.    
We’ve been raised to believe that life is hard and you just have to put up with it. The good news is that life is meant to be enjoyed and we can all learn how to have the life we love. 
Clients come to see me because they want  more respectful and loving relationships with themselves and others, feel inspired about their lives, have more access to peace, joy, connection, fun, fulfillment; explore what's important to them and become more of who they truly are and positively impact themselves, their partners, families, friends and colleagues.

Why I Care

 I'm on a mission to help people feel better more of the time, and having loving relationships- with themselves and others. 

I’ve been married to my sweetheart Dave for 38 years and we’re having a blast!  But it wasn’t always this way. In the early days we didn't have a clue about relationship and emotional fitness.  Although we loved each other, we kept getting stuck in power struggles, and felt hurt and disconnected and blamed each other. We even thought about calling it quits.  We each thought that if only the other got their act together, we'd be fine! 

In my quest to feel better about myself and improve our relationship, I dove into the field of psychology and was surprised to learn that I could feel better by changing the way I thought about things. It was a complete game changer! It had such a positive impact on me and my relationship with Dave that I just had to share what I learned with anyone who was interested.  I eveventually became an RN Psychotherapist and it's an absolute delight to help see clients avoid unnecessary drama and deliberately create the lives they desire. 

 I'm so thankful that Dave and I  learned what it truly means to love, and shudder to think that we almost lost it all.  In our case it was the right decision to stay together and the rewards have been priceless. We've transformed our relationship and now bring out the best in each other. 

Dave and I have 3 sons, a daughter in law, twin grandchildren and a large extended family who we love spending time with.  I enjoy yoga, pickleball, playing in the flower garden, dancing, movies, anything to do with personal development  and discovering plant based, gluten free recipes!
