The name Mary Ellen Whalen immediately creates a deep sense of trust and safety for me.  I know if she is present, I will be respected and honored for who I am.  I have not met anyone who is more authentically present than Mary Ellen.  Her uncomplicated, direct style opens up the heart for transformational healing.   Her ability to see through masks and shadows in a loving, non-judgmental way is extraordinary.
