Professional Training and Experience

Psychotherapist

For thirty years, I have had an established private practice in psychotherapy. My education and professional training include a unique mentor study program, and a curriculum of theoretical, experiential, and clinical training. I also hold a ten year gold certificate in advanced training in psychotherapy. Offering individual, couples and group psychotherapy rooted in the belief of total innocence, self love and compassion.

Meditator

Over the last twenty five years I have been an avid student of meditation, and have been teaching meditation for the last thirteen years. I have intensively studied, and practiced Jon Kabat Zinn’s mindfulness meditation, and became certified with master healers and teachers to create an energetic and innovative process of meditation, self healing, and heart awareness.

Entrepreneur

Prior to my role as a psychotherapist, for over a decade, I worked at a successful
High Tech company in marketing that promoted an entrepreneurial and independent style of work. This had a profound impact on my vision of work life and was a crash course in understanding how to work hard yet effective, earn a good living all while enjoying the process of work.

Activist

The most profound aspect of my training came from the total belief in innocence, and my own inner work. This inner work was catapulted in the spring of 2002, when a major turn of events occurred in my life. I was drawn to reconnect with my brother, Bernie McDaid, as old tragic childhood wounds emerged and were endured especially by my brother, myself and my entire family. Pandora’s Box was opened during this very painful and public legal trial between my brother, fellow survivors and the Boston Archdiocese breaking walls of silence down that were heard around the world. Changed forever, my role as an activist for the protection of endangered innocence of the child began.

Associations and Memberships include:

The National Alliance of Mental Health Professionals, Creative Director and Co founder, Co- Founder of www.Survivorsvoice.org-consultant and film documentation, Founder of Meditating for a Better World, and member of the Beverly Chamber of Commerce
