About Mary

Life can be messy, and we all need help navigating relationships and circumstances at times. Finding a therapist can be daunting when you don’t know what you need or who would be a good fit for you. As a practitioner of trauma-informed therapies, I believe in the value and power of each client. I’m passionate about walking with my clients as they work through trauma or shame, regain safety and positivity in their relationships, and thrive in confidence and empowerment. Life should be enjoyed, not just endured, and we can find the right path to healing and happiness for you and your unique situation.

Creating and maintaining boundaries for successful relationships with ourselves and others is difficult but essential. I specialize in helping clients work through trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. I have experience with ADHD and substance use disorders, and I genuinely love working with adults and adolescents alike. I also have unique expertise in First Responder trauma. My combination of empathy, empowerment, humor, and straight talk makes me an ideal therapist for those ready to take on their problems and learn to turn them into strengths.

While I am trained in traditional modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Family Systems, and Mindfulness, there are cases where verbalizing and revisiting past experiences is overwhelming. In these cases, my training in Brain-Working Recursive Therapy allows fast and effective healing without extensive discussion of trauma. BWRT is a modality that allows us to quickly re-train our brain so that we can keep the memories without holding on to the pain they give us or the tendency to repeat negative behaviors.

I look forward to working with you and helping you step into a new, happier version of yourself!
