Therapeutic Approach

My work is rooted in trauma-informed care. I specialize in helping clients understand how past experiences, particularly trauma- live in the body and nervous system, shaping how we think, feel, relate and respond to the world. While our past does not define us, it does leave an imprint, and healing often requires more than talk alone. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where clients can move at their own pace, reconnect with their authentic selves, and develop greater resilience and self- understanding. I hold deep respect for the courage it takes to engage in healing and feel honored to support you in that work.

About Mary

Outside of the therapy room, I am a wife and mother to two young daughters. My family and I are fully immersed in this meaningful and busy season of life.
