More about Mary
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
Hi, I’m Mary! I have over 10 years of experience as a social worker, including 5 years of clinical experience spanning work with elementary-aged children in school-based settings and supporting older adults in community mental health.
That range has shaped how I understand people across different life stages and experiences, and I bring that perspective into the work I do now. I especially enjoy working with individuals navigating depression, panic/anxiety, self-esteem/image, young adult life transitions, and relationship conflicts. In my personal time, I enjoy reading books with my book club, thrift shopping, and belly laughing with my son. I am looking forward to meeting and supporting you on your journey.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
