(she/they)
The most common struggles of the people I work with include difficulty managing emotions, problems with self-image, concerns about relationships, struggles with decision making, gray-area substance use, and anger outbursts. The other mindfulness practices can help with managing anxiety, impulsivity, and intrusive thoughts. As your recovery evolves in stages, your treatment will too. We, as people, aren’t one-dimensional. Your treatment won’t be either.
As the expert, you set the pace of our work and what information about yourself that you bring to it. I provide non-judgmental observations and support with practicing what you identify as helpful.
I work to provide a safe space for you to explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment. I am not here to tell you what is broken or what needs fixed. I am just here to provide a space that day-to-day life doesn't always give people access to - time, space, and support to talk about, sit with, and ask questions about tough situations.
One request I may ask of clients when we work together is that labels like “right” or “wrong” are strongly discouraged in sessions. I believe clients are the experts in themselves and I provide a safe space to explore thoughts and feelings without judgment. Letting go of those labels in session is an important part of creating that safe space.

She was my mom's therapist and my mom after going through literally the most pivotal and life changing series of events in my life, she encouraged me to schedule an appointment Mary. It has now been about 6 maybe closer to 7 years I've been able to have a safe space with Mary, tell her what i need yet simultaneously acknowledge and help guide me through the "why" behind things we discuss. Mary saved my life.
