Who We Are

The Foundation of Open Hearts Board of Directors

MaryBeth Scalice MaryBeth Scalice, MA, Ed.D. is a counselor, writer, and teacher trained in humanistic and transpersonal psychology. As a lifetime student of religious and mystical experience, her work integrates psychology with spirituality. She offers transformational heart-centered therapies for health, happiness and self-realization. MaryBeth has facilitated heart opening retreats, workshops and consultations to individuals, couples and groups for 20 years. In 1999, she established the Foundation of Open Hearts. The mission of the foundation succinctly describes MaryBeth’s calling to open the heart to the truth of Self as Love incarnate in the world. About 15 years ago, MaryBeth’s listening so deepened, that the breath fell away and divine Union was realized. Through this Union, MaryBeth came to experience The Love of Her Life and the true Desire of God. You are that Desire, and you are that Life. In addition to her healing practices, MaryBeth shares her recently published writings as an initiate of the Way of Love. She continues to offer weekly spiritual gatherings of A Course In Miracles.

Richard Dignan Richard Dignan There is an old saying that, "you have to teach what it is that you want to learn." And at the same time, if you want to be a good teacher, you must never give up the role of being a student. In the last 25 years, Richard has attended and conducted numerous workshops, weekly spiritual meetings, conferences and retreats with the same objective - to develop a deep connection to Spirit. His recent venture is to co-produce spiritual retreats and workshops with MaryBeth Scalice. In addition, he is currently facilitating a weekly meeting in Columbia, Maryland titled "The Inner Journey – Connection to Spirit."
