My goal is to help my clients find joy, happiness and peace no matter what they are experiencing or have experienced in their lives. I work with those struggling with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship issues, transition and change and those with feelings of low self worth, lack of confidence, loneliness, confusion and despair. You will not always feel the way you do today and there is light in the darkness. I look forward to hearing from you and working with you.

What drew me to Mary was her experience with Adult ADHD. She has resources that are applicable for current situation. I like the way Mary looks at my issues that bring me anxiety and depression and shows me the positive view and acknowledges the good things I have accomplished. She is showing me and helping me become my own cheerleader which I have not tried or accomplished before. She brings me hope and encouragement to be a better me.

Mary was very warm and accepting. She communicated very well. She understood my situations and was able to help me begin work on some of my issues right away. She was able to give me resources to increase my understanding. Her knowledge and experience gives her a great insight and I am looking forward to working with her.
