Mary Ringer is a licensed clinician in New Mexico with 27 years of experience. She focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, depression, grief, sleep problems, and LGBT concerns. Mary aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak honestly about what’s going on.
Her approach centers on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She uses straightforward techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of coping.
Background and approach
Sessions often include short exercises and steps to practice between meetings. Mary also helps with relationship strain and communication problems. She works with people who feel isolated, overwhelmed by caregiver duties, or stuck in guilt and shame.
She supports those facing questions about life purpose and women navigating life transitions. For older adults and those dealing with aging or geriatric issues, Mary draws on long experience to address practical and emotional concerns. She is familiar with the stress that comes from caregiving roles and changes in life stage.

04Online support
Using CBT and Online Sessions to Tackle Everyday Problems
Mary primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a hands-on approach that helps people spot patterns of thinking that make stress and anxiety worse. CBT breaks problems into small, workable steps and gives practical tools to try between sessions, useful for depression, sleep issues, and social anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which techniques to try first based on goals, comfort, and what has or hasn’t helped before. That means adjusting plans as progress is made and trying different tools until the best fit is found.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and exercises, while phone calls can be lighter on bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, quick coping tips, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy into a busy week and to continue steady work on goals without long travel.
