About me

I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, rational-emotive therapy and art therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

Mary is excellent. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking a competent, compassionate therapist with an ability to bring clarity to a situation. I’m a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), and Mary has been a good fit for that, too.

Mary has been helpful

The thing about Mary I appreciate the most is the extra effort that she makes. The check up that she does. Some times I am not doing OK that week, but I don't want to bother a therapist with a whole session. But Mary will do short check ins, just to make sure you are OK. That is something I really appreciated. Because sometimes I will forget that I have someone that I can talk to. I will honestly forget, but then Mary checks in, and I realize that I can talk to her.

A caring and knowledgeable therapist. I am pleased with the session I had with her and her communication outside of the live sessions as well. I would certainly recommend her to others.

I've been having therapy sessions with Mary for awhile now, specifically in big changes in my life. She's been a great help especially with identifying the root cause of my struggles, and how to deal with it in a healthy way. Thank you, Mary.

I just had my first session with Mary, and she wildly exceeded all my expectations! She was comfortable to talk to, with lots of life experience… She intuitively knew where to focus my attention, had fantastic insights, and extremely helpful. I’ve had several not-so-good experiences with some therapists in the past, but she was perfect!!!! I’ve been through some VERY challenging times these past few years, with lots of deep pain, sadness and anger coming up to be healed… and facing these things all alone has been challenging. I’m a mentor myself, have spent many decades doing lots of therapy and healing work - and I’ve struggled to find therapists with enough life experience to be helpful lately… but I felt very understood and respected by Mary. She brought a lot of great insights to the table. And I trusted her immediately, which is rare. I’m also deeply into spiritual subjects, as I do intuitive work for a living, and she was very open and affirming in this area, which was s huge relief! I’d highly recommend trying out Mary’s work… she’s a total GEM!

Mary has helped tremendously to empower and validate my voice, needs, and emotional connection as a highly visual, creative person. I highly recommend working with her.

We signed our 13 year old daughter up for online counseling to help with ongoing anxiety and other continuing issues. My husband and I reached out to teen counseling to see what was available, not knowing there was a teen counseling area that had professionals that were there to help specific age groups.

Our daughter felt instantly comfortable with Mary P. While her sessions are between the two of them, the feedback from our daughter is that she is very easy to talk to and that she doesn't feel like she is being 'talked at'.

Having someone impartial that our teen can talk to, unpack her issues, is like finding gold.

Mary is a great therapist. She has listened and understood where I was coming from and where I was headed. I thank her for being there for me. She has been a great help in my healing process.

Work with me!
