How her approaches guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the client's goals. It involves open conversation that helps people identify what matters and decide next steps. This approach is useful for stress, self esteem, and decisions about relationships.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It uses clear exercises and coping strategies for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood swings. Mindfulness Therapy adds attention and grounding practices to help manage strong emotions and reduce reactivity.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mary discusses options with each person and helps choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She works collaboratively to try strategies and adjust the plan over time.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking.
