When your mind won't stop racing, and worry follows you everywhere, life can feel exhausting. Anxiety can show up as constant what-ifs, physical tension, panic attacks, or avoiding situations that feel overwhelming. You might look fine on the outside while your thoughts spiral on the inside.

Mary understands that anxiety isn't something you can simply "calm down" from—it's your nervous system working overtime. In therapy, she'll help you understand what's driving your anxiety and teach you practical tools to quiet the noise. Through therapy, you'll learn to calm your nervous system, challenge the thoughts that keep you stuck, and build a sense of safety so you can move through life with more ease.

When someone you trusted shatters that trust, the pain can feel unbearable. Whether it's infidelity, lies, broken promises, or discovering a hidden truth, betrayal leaves you questioning everything—your judgment, your worth, and whether you can ever trust again.

Healing from betrayal isn't about "getting over it" quickly or deciding immediately whether to stay or go. Mary provides a safe space to process the shock, anger, grief, and confusion without judgment. Together, you'll work through the trauma of betrayal, rebuild your sense of self, and find clarity about what comes next—whether that's healing the relationship or moving forward on your own terms.

The past doesn't always stay in the past. Trauma can linger in your body and mind—showing up as flashbacks, nightmares, hypervigilance, or feeling numb and disconnected from the world around you. Maybe you're constantly on edge, avoiding reminders of what happened, or struggling to feel safe even when there's no current danger.

Mary specializes in trauma-informed therapy that honors your pace and recognizes that healing isn't linear. You won't be forced to relive painful memories before you're ready. Together, you'll gently process what happened, calm your nervous system, and help you reclaim a sense of safety and control in your life.

Navigating life as a woman comes with unique challenges that deserve to be understood and honored. Whether you're struggling with the pressure to do it all, relationship dynamics, body image concerns, life transitions like motherhood or career changes, or feeling like you're constantly putting everyone else first, Mary creates a space where your experience matters.

She understands the complexity of balancing expectations, healing from past wounds, and finding your authentic voice in a world that often tells women who they should be. Together, you'll explore what's holding you back, set boundaries that protect your peace, and reconnect with your strength and worth.

Change can be disorienting, even when it's something you chose. Whether you're navigating a breakup, career shift, relocation, becoming a parent, losing someone, or entering a new chapter of life, transitions can leave you feeling lost and unsure of who you are anymore. What worked before might not fit now, and the uncertainty can feel overwhelming.

Mary helps clients move through life's in-between spaces with clarity and compassion. In therapy, you'll make sense of the emotions that come with letting go and starting over, rediscover your footing, and create a path forward that feels authentic to who you're becoming.

Relationships can be the source of our greatest joy and deepest pain. Whether you're struggling with constant conflict, feeling disconnected from your partner, navigating communication breakdowns, or questioning whether the relationship is right for you, Mary provides a space to untangle what's really going on. Maybe you're caught in the same arguments, feeling unheard, or wondering if things can actually change.

Therapy isn't about assigning blame—it's about understanding the patterns keeping you stuck and exploring what you truly need. Mary will help you gain clarity on your relationship dynamics, improve communication, and decide whether to work toward repair or find peace in moving on.

The way you learned to love and connect was shaped long before you had words for it. Early experiences—whether loneliness, inconsistency, loss, or other trauma—can wire your nervous system to expect abandonment, mistrust closeness, or lose yourself in relationships. You might find yourself in a cycle of push-and-pull, feeling anxious when someone gets close or shutting down emotionally to protect yourself. These aren't character flaws—they're survival strategies your younger self created.

Mary specializes in the intersection of attachment and trauma, helping clients understand how past wounds show up in present relationships. Through compassionate exploration and evidence-based techniques, you'll rewire those patterns, develop earned security, and learn to connect with others in ways that feel safe and authentic.

Sometimes you can be your own harshest critic. That voice in your head tells you you're not good enough, smart enough, or worthy of love and success. You might compare yourself constantly to others, shrink yourself to fit in, or stay silent even when you have something valuable to say.

Low self-esteem can keep you stuck in unfulfilling relationships, jobs, and patterns because deep down, you don't believe you deserve better. Mary helps clients quiet that critical inner voice and rebuild their sense of worth from the inside out. In therapy, you'll challenge the beliefs that have kept you small, reconnect with your inherent value, and start showing up in the world as your authentic self.

If you've been feeling down, exhausted, or just not like yourself lately, you're not alone. Depression isn't just sadness—it's exhaustion, numbness, and feeling disconnected from everything that once mattered. People might tell you to "snap out of it" or "look on the bright side," but Mary knows healing isn't about quick fixes. She creates a compassionate space where you can show up exactly as you are—whether that's tearful, angry, numb, or confused. Together, you'll gently work through what's weighing you down and find your way back to feeling like yourself again.

Loss changes everything. Whether you're mourning the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a miscarriage, a dream that didn't come true, or the life you thought you'd have—grief can feel isolating and overwhelming. It doesn't follow a timeline or a neat set of stages. Some days you might feel okay, and others the pain crashes over you like a wave. Mary creates space for all of it—the sadness, the anger, the guilt, the moments when you feel like you're losing your mind. In therapy, you'll honor what you've lost, navigate the complicated emotions that come with it, and find ways to carry your grief while still moving forward in life.
