Hello, I'm Mary, a compassionate and empathetic Licensed Professional Counselor (MA) dedicated to listening to your story with sensitivity and understanding. I specialize in working with individuals dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, and anger, among other mental health issues. My approach is to tenderly and gently assist you with your troubles and issues so that you can regain confidence and self-esteem, and live a productive and fulfilling life.
I have extensive experience counseling a diverse range of populations, including underprivileged individuals, LGBTQIA+ community members, African Americans, veterans, the homeless, the unemployed, those who have been abused, and those who are ill. I also support people who have been victimized by various forms of ageism, racism, sexism, and other oppressions. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where you feel heard and understood.
In our sessions, you can expect a warm and non-judgmental space where we work collaboratively to address your concerns. Whether you're struggling with family relationships, intimate or romantic relationships, or navigating your gender identity, I'm here to support you. I also offer SonderMind Video Telehealth for those who prefer or require remote sessions.
Outside of my professional life, I value empathy, inclusivity, and the belief that everyone deserves to live a life of dignity and respect. These core values guide my practice and ensure that I provide the highest level of care to my clients.
If you're ready to take the first step towards healing and personal growth, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can work towards a brighter and more fulfilling future.
