I’ve only had one video session with Mary so far but she listened to me the whole time and everything I said. Was very kind and friendly the entire time and offered some helpful information/tools for me to deal with the situation. Her way made me feel very comfortable to open up and talk about everything that’s going on. Thank you, Mary.

I have worked with Mary for over a year and I can say without any reservation, that I have grown and gotten to know myself, thanks to her. Her kindness, compassion, and patience were key to my growth. I always felt comfortable crying during a session and felt heard. She helped me problem-solve and provided resources that I could use immediately. As a patient, I always felt in control and as though my opinion and decisions mattered. I was in charge of my own therapy and she was my guide. That is truly what therapy is about: learning and developing the skills to manage stress and challenging situations. I am a classroom teacher and the years of the pandemic have been hard. When I was at my lowest and didn't want to exist anymore, Mary was at my side. She reminded me what was reality and what was my fear/anxiety. That helped me slowly unravel myself. She truly is a master of her specialties. Lastly, you never feel judged but rather wrapped in a blanket of kindness and understanding. Thank you for helping me heal.
