Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Mary, and I get it-- life can be a mess. relationships are complicated, anxiety is relentless, and navigating big life transitions can feel overwhelming. I specialize in working with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of what is next. Whether you are dealing with attachment struggles, relationship patterns that aren't working, or anxiety/depression, I'm here to help. I will help you with overanalyzing and stop past experiences from weighing you down.

My approach to therapy

My approach is conversational, down to earth and collaborative. We'll work together to untangle the thoughts, patterns, and past experiences that keep you feeling stuck. I use Cognitive Behavioral approaches, attachment theory, and trauma-informed techniques, but I also believe that healing does not always have to clinical or forced. Sometimes deep emotions come with humor and growth looks like learning to sit with discomfort instead of running from it.

What you can expect from me

If you are looking for a therapist who keeps it real, embraces imperfection, and works with you to make lasting change, we might be a good fit. Let's talk!
