Meet Our Facilitator!

Marita Luby

Born in Nebraska and raised in Wyoming, I ultimately moved to Edgewater, Maryland, because of my employment with the FBI where I led and taught Geospatial Analysis.  Raised in an alcoholic family, my view of normal behavior was altered and that effected my relationships with others.  My husband introduced me to Al-Anon in 2011 and I have been a grateful member of Al-Anon since.  I have shared my experience strength and hope in meetings, retreats and conferences such as the Southern Maryland Roundup.  Since retirement, I have sought opportunities to create a healing arts practice for retreats.  I have been leading a healing arts session at the Chosen to Create women’s retreat for the past four years and have completed certification as an Art Life Coach.  My joy is helping people through art in a safe environment.  I have been researching and practicing Emotional Sobriety throughout my Al-Al-Anon program and am excited to share the gifts of this process with you.
