Background and approach
Conversations focus on what matters now and what can be changed in daily life. Her work includes support for intimacy-related concerns, anger, low self-esteem, and major life transitions. She also assists people facing compassion fatigue, caregiver stress, and issues that arise with illness or aging.
Trauma-related concerns such as post-traumatic stress, sexual assault, and abandonment are also part of her focus. With twelve years of professional experience, Mary brings steady attention to each person’s story. She invites clients to collaborate on goals and to try methods that fit their situation.
Progress is often a mix of short-term coping tools and deeper trauma-focused work. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online through several formats. Mary explains options clearly and helps people choose the format that fits their schedule and needs.

04Online support
Online approaches for trauma and coping
Mary commonly combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR with trauma-focused methods to address distress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is used as a structured way to process painful memories and reduce their emotional intensity when ready.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Mary will discuss options, listen to your goals, and adjust methods to suit your needs and comfort level. Together you can decide whether to focus on practical skills, trauma processing, or a mix of both.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for people with busy lives or limited travel time. Video calls let you see facial cues and practice skills in real time, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low, and live chat or text messaging works well for brief check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit consistent care into work, caregiving, or other routines.
