More about Mary
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
I am a master's level licensed mental health counselor with over 20 years experience working with families in both school and private settings. As a working parent I understand the joys and challenges of raising families today. Balancing academic demands, extracurricular activities, unsettling times, household responsibilities and healthy relationships can be exhausting both physically and emotionally. The current pandemic has significantly increased our daily stressors. Mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, ADHD and PTSD are on the rise in both children and adults. I can help you and your family navigate through these turbulent times in a relaxed, non-judgmental and therapeutic setting.
I look forward to the opportunity to meet and work with you.
Respectfully,
Mary Gavin Cantillo MA, LMHC

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
