Mary Kolb, PhD
Licensed PRH Educator

Mary earned her Doctorate in Sociology at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. Her studies there and as a researcher at the Johns Hopkins University asked how people make meaningful and satisfying decisions about their schooling and work careers.

As Executive Director of the Maryland Institute for Employment and Training Professionals, she was responsible for designing and offering professional development to the specialists across the state who were charged with helping unemployed and displaced workers.

Prior to becoming a licensed PRH Educator in 2004, Mary completed over 300 hours of professional training in PRH methods and pedagogy. To maintain her license, she continues to improve my mastery of PRH methods by using them in daily life, completing about 90 hours per year of ongoing training, and continuing professional supervision. She was re-certified by the Professional Certification Board of PRH International in 2007, and – like all PRH Educators – must be re-certified every three years.

Now, as a licensed educator for PRH (Personality and Human Relations) Education, her passion is to guide individuals in discovering and expressing their unique gifts so they can live from the best of themselves. Mary’s personal mission is to help her fellow travelers discover their unique steps on the journey toward joy and wholeness.

Mary lives near Seattle, Washington with her husband Kurt and their two teenagers.
