Do you want to feel more confident, calm, and centered?  When you’re wired differently, staying organized and preventing overwhelm can feel like an insurmountable challenge.  And you’re left feeling hopeless.

   I used to feel that way — I thought I would never be able to have an organized and easeful life; that I just couldn’t do it.  But I persisted and found supports that worked for me, and I can help you do the same.
Hi,  I’m MarRem!
   I work with people who are wired differently (ADHD, highly sensitive, sensory processing issues, learning disabilities, and more) to help them go from feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and living with a sense of despair to building confidence, clarity, and connection.  
​
   More than 35 years’ experience in the field of education has shown me how individualized learning is, especially for people who are ‘Wired Differently.’  In the last few years, adult ADHD diagnoses have risen dramatically.  Having the right tools makes a huge difference, and I've spent my life creating tools that can be tailored to work with your unique learning style.
I, too, am "Wired Differently"​
   It takes one to know one, as they say.  Even though I have a successful consulting practice, I used to struggle with my unique learning style.  I still remember how painful it was to struggle with simple tasks of daily living like having clean clothes, remembering to eat, finding what I needed.  Not to mention being late to everything!

   I’ve disconnected and melted down, too. I have lived those moments of not knowing where to start or where to go for help.

   Until one day, I reached a point where I realized I had to develop strategies that worked for me!  I saw how the tools I used in my work with others helped them blossom.  So I continued putting together useful parts from a variety of modalities to create new, highly adaptable supports.
​
   While it wasn’t easy, I persisted and eventually created the Integrated NeuroSensory Processing® approach for myself and others who are Wired Differently.  My approach will help you understand and acknowledge your strengths and unique ways of learning while creating a life you love living.  ​
​I know from personal experience
that being wired differently can cost you
your job, friendships and marriage
   And that’s why I now give back and help others learn the skills to create a thriving life.  I'm so passionate about my work because I know firsthand how fabulous life can be when you have tools that work for you.
 Together, we can co-create how to integrate what you need with awareness, fun and humor!
​Don't wait!  It's never too late to start.

Why Choose MarRem

(1)  Change IS Possible!
   If you are “wired differently,” seeing the glass as half-full does not come easily.  Realizing that a glass is refillable — and can be filled with something else — takes a paradigm shift.  It isn’t magic; It's Magical!  You must work at it, play with it, flip things upside down.  

   Sometimes it requires a step back to leap forward.  Sometimes you have to believe before you can fly. ​
  I believe in people's potential.  “Look at what you DID do!” always elicits awareness of an accomplishment no matter how large or small.  “Did you ___?" " Did you remember ___?" — That’s wonderful!  

   Slowly, in spits and spurts, incrementally Change Does Come! 
​
   My greatest triumph is when clients are finally able to take delight in joyful moments with themselves and their loved ones, loving and accepting themselves and others as they are.  I support people in developing skills that will help them thrive in a productive life, engage as an active member of their community, and love the life they live.  

    If you’re struggling to find strategies that work for you, I can support you, too! 
(2)  I Know How Change Happens From First-Person Experience
  It takes one to know one, as they say.  I’ve disconnected and melted down, too.  I have lived those moments of not knowing where to start or where to go for help. 
​  
   I’ve been in your shoes, and I’m here to tell you that there are real things that make a difference. ​
    Being “wired differently” has propelled me on a life-long quest to understand and figure out what actually works.  What provides relief?  What strengthens connections?  What helps bring success in all aspects of life?  

  This pursuit led me through a maze of specialists, diets, medications, theories, systemized tools and approaches — each filling in a piece of the puzzle of how I can live life to its fullest and help others like me do the same. ​

   I’ve been immersed in this field of knowledge for over 30 years and learned from pioneers in the field.  
​​
   My professional training and experience empowers me to employ novel methods and ideas to establish profound connections, obtaining highly effective results.  Being wired differently gives me the experience and persistence to untangle every little puzzle that comes my way.
(3)  We Start Right Where You Are & Plot Our Course of Exploration
   I meet you where you are, as you are, in each moment.  Together we explore your distinct internal culture, conventions, and methods.  I begin to see the struggles and frustrations, the detours and the bluffs. 
​ 
   I don’t rescue.  I serve as your scout, continuously surveying for signs and signals, indicators like: 
  • Responsiveness to sensory stimuli 
  • ​Timing and sequencing skills 
  • Dexterity and balance 
  • Executive function and problem solving 
  • Interpersonal engagement styles ​
   As things open up, we decode some of your interpretations and perspectives.  We deduce what is and is not working.  
​
   Our findings help us build a roadmap of paths and pitfalls.  And all along the way we learn to celebrate every little gain we have made.
(4)  We Co-Create A Plan for Introducing Change​ & Fine-Tune It Together as We See Results
  Together we co-create fun ways to discover how much and what kinds of supports you need for change to happen.  And celebrate the small gains along the way!

   We’ll examine your routines, habits, and interactions to find the best starting point.  We then grow from there, a little at a time.  As we determine and tweak what works for you, we will gradually add on as we go along.  This will give you a strong foundation and a solid sense of self.
  There will be new practices to integrate at work, home, and into your daily life.  Sharing your needs and concerns, attempts and foibles, will enable us to refine each exploratory practice, maximizing its potential for success.  Because life is made up of the fullness of all of our experiences and it’s important to acknowledge them all on your journey to create a life you love living.
(5)  You Are Not In This Alone - It Takes A Village
  Many stakeholders are often engaged in helping people who are “wired differently” - medical specialists and other supports.  Often each is working from their specialty’s perspective.  Everyone is looking to you to lead that “village” of professionals, to coordinate information, and make tough decisions on behalf of yourself.  

   Collaboration sounds simple.  It makes sense.  Yet, often there is no one coordinating the pieces of the puzzle.  
  Miscues can easily happen: 
  • Information might not get conveyed adequately 
  • Terminology might be used differently by different specialists 
  • A step might need completion before the next can begin 
 
  I support you to become your own advocate.  If needed I can also reach out to other professionals to exchange knowledge and understand their concerns.  I gather information and recommendations, distilling down essential points into everyday terms.  
​
   It is important that you understand what is happening and have treatment that honors your values and beliefs.  I help you decipher options and prioritize next steps. 

   There are a lot of moving parts.  Caring for yourself is demanding enough.  Mastering the system is an added burden that shouldn’t become an obstacle to getting access to the expert care you need.  I facilitate collaboration because much more progress is made when everyone is working together. ​
