More about Mary

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I’ve been at the forefront of behavioral healthcare for over 20 years and have worked in a variety of roles and settings—emergency rooms, inpatient hospitals, and outpatient treatment. Both personally and professionally, I’ve learned to trust that even in struggle, a way forward exists. We’ll work together to understand your patterns, then develop practical skills to improve your quality of life.

I offer a relational, nervous system-informed therapy grounded in attachment, mindfulness, and polyvagal theory. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on creating safety so lasting change can occur. In our work together, we’ll explore not only what’s happening internally, but how those patterns show up with partners, family members, and others.

This type of therapy is often a good fit if you feel anxious, overwhelmed, numb, disconnected, or stuck in relational patterns—and if you value a compassionate, non-pathologizing approach. An initial consultation can help us decide together whether this feels like the right match. I look forward to speaking with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
