01About Mary
Mary Cole is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 15 years of experience. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, and painful experiences. Mary focuses on practical skills that make day-to-day life easier and more manageable.
Her approach blends structured problem-solving with warm, interactive support. She helps people learn emotional regulation skills to manage mood swings and distress. She also works on boundary-setting, reducing people-pleasing, and rebuilding self-worth.
Background and approach
Mary guides clients through relationship patterns and attachment concerns so they can form healthier connections. She uses mindfulness techniques and grounding practices to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms. Work on communication problems and codependency often includes exercises people can use between sessions.
For those facing grief, career crossroads, or major life changes, Mary offers a steady, practical way forward. Sessions can include goal-setting, short behavioral experiments, and reflective work to clarify life purpose. Motivational interviewing is used when someone needs help finding internal motivation for change.
Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. People leave with clearer choices and tools they can try at home. The first meetings usually focus on understanding immediate concerns and identifying one or two skills to practice before the next session.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care
Mary often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT focuses on what matters most and on building small habits that support those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another common approach she uses to identify unhelpful thought patterns and try new behaviors that reduce anxiety and mood problems. CBT sessions often include short exercises and homework to practice between meetings.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Mary will listen to each person’s goals, try an approach, and adjust as needed. Together they decide which methods fit the client’s needs, preferences, and daily life so work in sessions feels relevant and doable.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face work and real-time skills coaching. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or movement is an issue. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins or focused problem-solving possible between longer sessions. These options let people fit therapy into work, parenting, or busy schedules while continuing the same therapeutic process.
