About Mary
As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) I am committed to maintaining a personal environment that ensures my clients receive the individual attention and the services that best meet their needs. I work mainly with the individual adult population who are seeking to address a variety of issues and I provide comprehensive psychological services in a warm, supportive, and professional atmosphere. I help my clients effectively work through the problems they face in response to stress, difficult life transitions, relationship issues, emotional and behavioral difficulties as well as substance abuse and addiction.
I use an integrative treatment approach to promote insight, individual growth, improved coping and interpersonal skills, and movement toward a contented and more fulfilling life. Cognitive-Behavioral (CBT), Psychodynamic/Insight-Oriented, Interpersonal and Motivational Interviewing Therapy Techniques are used to facilitate personal growth and treat an array of specific issues.
Some of the issues worked on include but are not limited to: Depression & other Mood Disorders, Anxiety, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Panic Disorder, Substance Abuse/Addictions & Major Life Transitions.

What clients say
- “I’m not very good at being an open book, Mary Ann is a very good listener and helps people see issues in healthier perspectives. She helps me be open and honest. For my first therapy session and first therapist, I would definitely recommend.”
- “Mary Ann is very attuned to what I have to say. She possesses an apt ability to reflect back to me my thoughts and feelings in a way that allows them to sink in much deeper where they can be felt as opposed to being analyzed. She’s incredibly warm and easy to talk to. Would highly recommend her to everyone in need of a safe space to share and connect some dots.”
- “Mary Ann has helped me so much from family relationships, partner relationships, friend relationships as well as my own relationship with myself! Can’t recommend her enough.”
