ABOUT MARI:
BMariaElena “Mari” Rubio, MA, HBCE, BCH

"Mari's" moto is, "Do all things with great love in your heart, for the benefit of others." She loves to help others to live happy, prosperous, healthy lives. She began to study and use hypnosis in 2004 while preparing for the birth of her first son 15 years ago. She used hypnosis to achieve calm, gentle, and un-medicated births with her four children. She expanded her use of hypnosis to work with expectant moms and dads through a certification in HypnoBirthing (2011).
Finding such great success with hypnosis among her HypnoBirthing families, Mari decided to expand her reach by becoming a Board Certified Hypnotist. Mari holds three professional hypnosis certifications from the: HypnoBirthing Institute (HBI in 2018), National Guild of Hypnotist (NGH in 2019), and International Association of Counselors and Therapists (IACT 2019).
She has been trained by Marie "Mickey Mongan", founder of the HypnBirthing Institute. She was initially trained in general hypnosis by James "Eddie" Womack, a board certified master hypnotherapist and certified master instructor with over forty years of professional experience. Eddie's strict adherence to the code of ethics and confidentially has allowed him to work with the biggest companies of the world including GoodYear, Colgate, Ford, Chrysler and Delco as well as, entertainers and athletes, professional and amateur. He shared many learned lessons with Mari and her training cohort. You can learn more about Eddie at New Way New Day Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy. Additionally, Mari has trained under the tutelage of Michael Watson, an internationally known trainer and consultant, who has been training people in NLP and Ericksonian Hypnosis for the past 20 years; he has been working as a hypnotherapist for 30 years. You can learn more about Michael's work through the UP Hypnosis Institute.
As a Board Certified Hypnotist, Mari serves a broad range of challenges such as weight loss, smoking cessation, as well as, fears, phobias, and anxieties to help clients regain a sense of self-control, self-esteem and confidence. Mari continues to work with expectant parents as well as adults and youth to help them alleviate stressors and bad habits that may be holding them back from achieving their potential and living healthy lives.
Mari attended graduate courses at Harvard's School of Education and holds a Master’s in Intercultural Relations with an emphasis on Multi-Cultural Education from Lesley University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Mari worked at Harvard's School of Public Health and Office of the President & Provost from 2001-2009. She is a Harvard University Administrative Fellowship Alumna. She returned to Arizona in 2009 to be closer to family. She settled in Ahwatukee, where she lives with her five beautiful children.
