Marilyn G. Marco, LMFT, has been a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist since 1981. She has a B.A. from University of California, Berkeley and an M.A. from San Francisco State University. Marilyn is passionate about empowering people to be their best selves and to discover their gifts to contribute to the world. She loves meeting people with differing backgrounds and experiences and watching them come alive as they uncover their power. Having experienced firsthand the devastation of Alzheimer’s with her mother, Marilyn wants to not only educate people who are dealing with this disease, but to shift the response from fear to being proactive and hopeful in the face of this disease.
Marilyn loves hiking in the woods, watching sunsets at the marina, and thrives on deep connections with friends. Having cruised Mexico and the South Pacific with her husband on a 37-foot sailboat, Marilyn discovered strengths she didn’t know she had, and a spiritual connection to the Divine through experiencing being a speck on the ocean.
Marilyn lives in Oakland, CA with her partner and ocean cruising mate, Jim Marco.
Below are photos of Marilyn's mother whose experience with Alzheimer's inspired this book.
