About Mary
She uses practical, solution-focused methods that look at what matters to the individual. Sessions often involve identifying unhelpful patterns and examining personal beliefs. That leads to concrete strategies for making choices that fit a person’s values.
Mary draws on Client-Centered Therapy to centre conversations on the person’s own goals. She also uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe stories they tell about themselves. Motivational Interviewing is part of how she supports people who feel stuck or unsure about next steps.
Her background includes two decades as a social worker and clinical practice across multiple states. She describes her work as focused on helping people gain self-awareness and confidence. This can include improving communication, managing guilt and shame, or coping with isolation and midlife transitions.
Practical matters are part of the work. Sessions can address relationship issues like infidelity and communication problems, caregiver stress, and coping after disasters. People interested in exploring life purpose or career direction will find a direct, values-focused way of working.

Using Therapeutic Approaches in Remote Sessions
Mary often uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses conversations on the individual’s goals and priorities. This approach helps when someone is sorting through career doubts, relationship choices, or questions about life purpose. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple practices to manage stress and anxiety by paying attention to thoughts and bodily sensations in the present moment. Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method she employs to help people who are ambivalent about change, supporting clearer decisions and stepwise action.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mary collaborates with each person to see which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. She will discuss options and adjust the approach over time based on what helps most.
If you plan to use online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove the need to travel to an office. These practical benefits can make it simpler to keep regular appointments and maintain momentum while addressing stress, career transitions, or relationship concerns.
