A Warm Welcome... This is the website of Mary Scott, Licensed Master Social Worker and group faciltator.   My intention in creating this site is to provide a straight-forward way for you to learn about the different aspects of my work: individual counseling, groups, workshops, and overnight retreats. Whatever desire you have--improved health, more fulfilling work, better family or intimate relationships, increased creativity--this site will give you a good idea if my services are right for you. You'll also learn more about me, how I work, and about my professional approach and education.   I've chosen this work because I have a strong belief that a happier, healthier life is entirely within our reach. I have great respect and compassion for all people, no matter what the circumstances or if I agree with the behavior. Whether I am hosting a group or holding a private session, I try to address all aspects of each person: the mind, emotions, physical body/health, and spirit, if desired. This more integrative, "holistic" approach helps assure a greater sense of balance, providing a solid foundation for happiness and progress in all aspects of one's life. If you'd like to know more about my professional experience and background, please click on "Counseling" at the top. For current events, please see "Upcoming Events" at right.   Thank you, I look forward to working with you sometime soon.   Mary Scott, LMSW 207-323-8062	Upcoming Events If you've been meaning to begin a self-healing or spiritual practice--or you'd like to fine-tune your current one--this one-day experience will help you discern what works for you.   Our "Restorative Meditation & Reiki Experiential" will be held Saturday, November, 2010, mid-coast Maine (exact date and location to follow), co-hosted by long-time Reiki Master Mary McCormick. Through her clear, simple and loving instruction, Mary will illustrate what Reiki is, and show you how to use its power to heal yourself and others. Doing this as a group is very powerful, and beautiful to witness. You will actually feel the energy in the room shift, as you as an individual become lighter and completely at peace.   As her co-host, I'll joyfully lead us in a series of diverse meditations--all designed to clear the busy mind, ground the body, and soothe our central nervous systems. The series includes "Surya" meditation, a kind of mind "detox" (done in a seated position), and "Yoda Nidra", a deep meditation--vs. yoga movement--that focuses the mind on the physical body, leaving the intellect behind (done lying down). You'll also experience several guided visualizations--a wonderful way to integrate what I call "The Four Aspects of Self", the mind, body, emotions, and spiritual self (done either seated or lying down).   Mats, filtered water, and a healthy organic lunch will be provided. Pre-registration required.   Cost: (to follow)
