Katy not only spent years in private and group talk therapy and coaching as well as working the steps and attending 12-step meetings, but she also discovered ways to support her brain, body, and nervous system in the after of trauma. EMDR, QNRT, neurofeedback, and yoga are all part of her recovery journey. After years of unrolling her own yoga mat, she knew it was something she needed to begin sharing with others. Katy has now completed over 1200 hours of Yoga Teacher Training certifications and has over 500 hours experience teaching yoga.

She will tentatively complete her Yoga Teacher Trainer certificate spring 2024 with plans to begin training the next generation of yoga teachers. Some of her favorite specialties to share are trauma sensitive Yoga and Kundalini Yoga & Meditation. She is also a life coach and is nearly graduated from an advanced coaching training program through BEabove leadership. It’s based on neuroscience and somatic movement. She looks forward to supporting women in the aftermath of relationship trauma soon. You can find her on FB and IG @Gracefilled Pathways.

She has presented at several conferences including the Association of Mormon Counselors and Psychotherapists, Utah Coalition against Pornography; SA Lifeline; Women of Worth; The Togetherness Project, and the National Coalition on sexual exploitation. Her topics have included betrayal trauma; creating safety when trust has been lost; shame and resiliency; posttraumatic growth; what happy couples know; and sexual addiction and compulsivity. Dorothy lives in Salt Lake City where she loves to swim and bike and sometimes hike. Recently she hiked the lower Himalayas in Nepal and before that summited Mt. Killimanjaro in Africa where she learned that although it is amazing to be on top of the world there is a significant lack of air there. She is the wife of the late Dan Maryon, mother of three often inspiring children, and Nana to seven wildly creative humans who show great promise in becoming healthy adults one day.

Sherie has a podcast entitled Two Therapists Talking, with fellow therapist David Thompson.  She also works in therapeutic education, lecturing across the country–including at UCAP, and helping people across the world.  She wrote a book, has developed online courses, and has consulted on radio, podcasts, for books, and a church website.

Sherie pursues her own passions daily through her work, family, and individually:  She teaches her 4 children important life skills like playing music, faith in Jesus Christ, family dance parties, and marshmallow wars.  She is passionate about dancing, triathlons, nature, and embracing holistic wellness philosophies. And she thoroughly enjoys watching her children succeed in football, the arts, and life. Sherie personally knows the value and struggles of healing, overcoming, and forgiving through her own divorce, and subsequent ICU stay and 18 mo recovery from a broken back and brain injury after a car hit her on her bike.
