For the past twenty-five years, she’s experienced the joys and tribulations of raising four daughters born within just five years. Her parenting challenges inspired a passion for neuroscience and child development, which then led to the creation of her framework. The MicroStep Method™ equips the overwhelmed parent with the understanding and tools to transform everyday parenting struggles into opportunities for creating moments of meaningful connection.
Mary believes that by dedicating herself to empowering and guiding parents with young children, she can contribute to reversing the rising tide of teen and young adult anxiety and depression.
