More about Mary-Catherine
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
As a licensed therapist in Oregon, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional experiences. My approach centers on compassionate, personalized care that honors each person's unique journey. I have extensive experience helping clients address challenges like depression, anxiety, life transitions, and interpersonal dynamics.
My therapeutic work focuses on empowering individuals to develop deeper self-understanding, build resilience, and cultivate meaningful connections. I'm particularly passionate about supporting young adults and individuals at any stage exploring identity, relationships, and personal growth. Through a collaborative and validating approach, I help clients develop practical coping strategies and explore underlying emotional patterns.
I draw from evidence-based practices to create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, challenge limiting beliefs, and move toward greater emotional wellness. My goal is to walk alongside you with genuine empathy, respect, and a commitment to your healing and personal development.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She's fantastic!
Mary-Catherine is compassionate and insightful. Friendly and nice with a sense of humor to boot. She has seen me to a much improved state of mind. I recommend talking to her!
Mary-Catherine is a Godsend. I have gained so much control over my emotions and have learned so much about myself through our sessions. Used to just go to the docs and get some pills that never really worked or made matters worse. With Mary's guidance, I now am understanding why I feel as I do and the underlying causes of those feelings. No drugs needed and happier for it. Thank you Mary and thank you Betterhelp.
Friendly and positive therapist
I have had many therapists before, all helped and were supportive, but Mary-Catherine has been so easy to connect with and an excellent balance of support with loving pushes to help me get where I want to. I highly recommend her!
From our first session, I felt that Dr. Mary listened so well. She made sense out of my ramblings, focused on what was most helpful and asked good questions. I feel like she is my friend already and I could tell her anything.
I can’t adequately communicate how much she has helped me
Mary has been extremely helpful to me and I want to continue seeing her as long as I feel like I need it. I highly recommend talking to her and using this site.
Mary-Catherine is a great therapist. She is very attentive, a great listener, and easy to talk to.
Very supportive and easy to open up to
