01About Mary
Mary Guillory is a licensed professional counselor in Texas who focuses on making therapy feel manageable. She meets people where they are and works to create a calm, respectful space for honest conversation. Mary listens for what matters most and helps clients take small practical steps forward.
She prioritizes building trust slowly so people feel safe enough to talk about difficult feelings. Her approach is collaborative - she works alongside clients rather than directing them.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to make emotions easier to name and actions clearer to take. Mary uses several evidence-informed methods to guide her work, including cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance-based practices. She also draws on attachment-based and client-centered ideas to strengthen relationships and self-understanding.
These tools are applied in straightforward ways, like practicing new skills, reframing unhelpful thoughts, and noticing values-driven choices. People come to Mary for help with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, grief, anger, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and career or relationship struggles. She helps people who are coping with life changes and the ripple effects those changes bring.
With five years of experience, Mary aims for a practical, compassionate style. She works with clients to set clear, realistic goals and to track progress over time. Her focus is on steady, useful change rather than quick fixes.

How Mary’s Approaches Shape Online Sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice tough thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. In online work this can mean short exercises to clarify what matters and homework to practice values-based steps between sessions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Over video or phone, Mary might guide people through simple thought records, activity plans, and coping skills to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.
Mary treats the choice of approach as a team decision. She will talk with each person about their goals, test what feels most useful, and adjust methods over time. The aim is to find a combination of techniques that fits the person’s needs and daily life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different schedules and preferences. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and demonstrating skills, while phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging can be good for brief check-ins, quick coping reminders, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or busy family routines while still using ACT and CBT tools.
