Therapist

Welcome to my therapy practice. If you are anxious, feeling shame and overwhelmed, therapy can help you find relief. If it is hard to say no and you are exhausted from people-pleasing, my approach will help you to set healthy boundaries. Are you feeling hurt by narcissistic abuse or alcoholism and drug abuse in the family? Together we will heal the pain of your inner child.

My approach addresses challenges with grief and loss, substance use and codependency. With my more than 35 years of experience, I am confident that we will find a way to help you to achieve a better sense of fulfillment and serenity.

I am a licensed MFT in California with many years of experience directing programs, training therapists and supporting adults in their recovery.

Therapist

Virtual • California


I'm Mary, and I want you to know that whatever's bringing you here — anxiety that won't quiet down, a relationship that's fraying, grief you can't shake, or patterns you keep repeating despite your best efforts — you don't have to figure it out alone. I've worked with individuals, couples, families, and teens facing some of life's hardest chapters, and I genuinely believe that the right support at the right time changes everything.


I'm California-licensed and offer telehealth sessions statewide, which means flexible, private care from wherever you're most comfortable. I accept Aetna, Blue Shield of California, Cigna, and Carelon Behavioral Health, and I'm happy to help you understand your benefits before your first session.

Your goals are most important to me, but I do recommend goals when needed. I accept you just as you are. I will work together with you to achieve an improved quality of life. I have over 30 years experience working in mental health counseling, and 10 1/2 years as a licensed provider. In that time, I have learned to use a variety of modalities.
