Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Mary commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her practice. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and workplace stress. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take action even when emotions are difficult, which can help with life transitions, grief, and relationship strain.She also uses a Client-Centered approach, offering attentive listening and straightforward feedback so clients can make sense of their experiences and decide on next steps. Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process; the therapist and client work together to find what fits the client’s goals and preferences over time.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can help fit counseling into a busy schedule by removing travel time and allowing appointments from different locations. Some formats make shorter check-ins easier or reduce bandwidth needs by avoiding video. Talk with the therapist about goals and practical needs to find a setup that suits everyday life and commitments.
