Jean Marie was born in Manhattan. As a child, she lived mostly in her own world, which was the psychic world. As a teenager, she was outgoing and well liked but still struggled with two entirely different dimensions of reality. She knew people; she could tell at a glance what was going on with them. Her psychic ability confused her because she was seeing on two levels of a person simultaneously-the conscious and subconscious. They were usually very different. Jean Marie eventually began to appreciate her ability and use it for the good of others. She was given a scholarship to the Berkley Psychic Institute by the founder. She did not relate to the agenda at the Institute because her focus has always been on psychology. Nonetheless, she left with a technical knowledge of how to read a person's aura, which helped her to get a grasp on her capacity to psychically read a person's conscious and subconscious. Jean Marie returned to New York City, where she became a "psychic sensation." She began giving clairvoyant psychological readings and seminars on personal development. Her clients were professional; many were medical doctors, psychiatrists, and psychologists. She dedicated thirty years of her career to helping individuals with various psychological challenges and now enjoys her retirement in New Mexico.
