Meet Dr. Mary

Hello, and welcome to Imagine Pediatrics!

I’m a board certified pediatrician, author, and mom of eight who has created Imagine Pediatrics to address child healthcare needs in the St. George area perhaps not serviced by the traditional clinic. I have special training in mind-body medicine to help kids build skills of self-regulation and coping through guided imagery and focused practice.

I serve as a consultant to children and families dealing with issues such as chronic pain, ADHD, potty-training difficulty, sleep problems, childhood obesity, mild anxiety or depression, phobias, habit problems, adjustment difficulty, and more. I utilize the best of modern medicine, while being open to evidence-based alternative therapies. I take time to get to the root of complex problems and take a whole-child, integrative approach. I look forward to working with you and your child!
