Nancy Marrocco, B.A., B.Ed., M.R.E., (C)OACCPP

In a quiet office on a tree-lined street, I see men, women and couples; together, we work creatively and intensively towards freedom, peace, and hope. I love my job - helping people find the light and move toward it. Body, mind, heart and soul are all involved in this remarkable healing process.
