More about Mary

Every life story is filled with all kinds of moments—those of success and laughter and those of struggles and loss. In those moments when you are hurt, angry, lonely, scared or overwhelmed, it can be hard to know where to turn for direction. My passion in life is helping people to find the direction and support they need to move forward in those difficult times.
I am a licensed professional counselor in South Carolina. My educational background includes a BA from Purdue University in Individual and Family Development and a MA in Clinical Counseling from Columbia International University. I have worked as an Multisystemic (MST) therapist for HIV+ teenagers, a School based Mental Health Counselor, and as a Military and Family Life Counselor.
I have been helping individuals, families, and children to become aware of their inner strengths, and then, use those strengths to bring change to their current situation for over 13 years. Since every person’s story is unique, I use a variety of counseling techniques, including but not limited to, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Brief Solution Focused Therapy.
It takes courage to ask for help and seek change. If you are ready, I am here to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in life.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
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.

Mary is a wonderful therapist. I have several big stressors in my life that causes me a lot of anxiety. Her expertise has given me the tools to work through them.
I could not have gotten through everything going on in my life without my therapist, Mary. She has been a huge blessing in my life. I am so glad that we matched up on BetterHelp.

Mary is the best!!
Great!!
Mary is so wonderful. She is kind, helpful, and always insightful. She has been so great at giving the tools I need to process my past trauma and current concerns. I have Autism and it’s great to have someone who understands what I mean when talking and how I struggle with the way I see the world. I honestly look forward to our meetings all week. She is simply the best. I highly recommend her.
Mary is fantastic! Always so helpful in helping me achieve my therapy goals.
I didn't know where to begin at the time I started therapy with Mary. I knew I had taken the right steps but felt lost about whether to start with current situations, my past or previous sessions of therapy I've had throughout my life. Mary has been so understanding, unjudgemental and compassionate in helping me identify my own emotions, thoughts and just all around supportive with any goals I try to achieve in between sessions. She listens and offers ways to challenge me. Always does a check-in at the start and finish and if it's a challenging session, even a little later to make sure I'm okay. I love the "homework" because I do better with a deadline personally and she has really helped me feel good about myself and helped get me on a better path and out of my spiral. Through the laughs, tears and silence I feel Mary has helped me in many ways and I am greatful we were matched.
Mary is a wonderful and compassionate therapist. She listens to your concerns and gives you tools to use in your everyday life. I am glad I was able to find such a great person.
Great support and follow up. Caring and thoughtful counselor. Highly recommend
Mary is just simply the BEST! She is so kind, calm, and understanding. She absolutely does not judge and really wants you to succeed in life. She’s like a cheerleader and an advice-giving genius all in one! 5 stars and 2 huge thumbs up from me!
I can’t put into words how much Mary has helped me over the past few months. She listens without judgement and offers great advice. I feel like a new person after working with Mary. We all have angels sent into our lives, and Mary is one of them!! Thank you for everything!!
Mary is so kind and encouraging. She meets me right where I am!! I dont have to perform or pretend with her. She has just been with me and encouraged me to just inch forward. I am going forward. She is a blessing in my life!!
Mary is so kind! She is an amazing listener and has helped me so much during a very difficult time in my life. She truly doesn't judge you. When I have a bad day, she lifts me up and gives me the tools that I need to get through the day. She is awesome!
