Throughout life we all face challenges, at times these can become increasingly overwhelming, and positive outlooks may start to seem more and more limited. Finding a therapist you feel you can work well with is critical to a successful treatment outcome and is key to making positive life changes. Mary approaches therapy by providing a safe and collaborative space that you can explore your issues and concerns without fear of judgment. She feels that therapy is unique for each individual and tailors treatment to fit each individual’s needs. Through a combination of therapeutic approaches Mary empowers her clients to reach their goals by focusing on their strengths, develop a greater self-understanding, identify thought and behavioral patterns that are interfering with their happiness, and master coping skills to improve their quality of life.

Mary is a Licensed Professional Counselor. She obtained her Bachelors degree from Indiana University with a major in psychology and went on to complete her Masters in Community Counseling at Loyola University Chicago. Mary has experience providing service for children, adolescents and adults in outpatient hospital settings, community mental health centers, and through community outreach work.
