Mary Blair

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a licensed professional counselor in South Dakota with over 18 years of experience working as a psychotherapist, consultant, hospice and hospital chaplain. I have seen clients with a wide range of concerns including grief/loss, life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma history, and parenting and relationship challenges.
My style of therapy integrates the various types of therapy that I have trained in including internal family systems (IFS), psychodynamic, and several somatic approaches.
I especially enjoy working with clients in a holistic manner, giving attention to mind, body, and spirit (as you define it). I find that therapy is more effective and efficient if all aspects of a person are included. My approach is not only client-centered, but allows for you to take the lead in many respects. When experiencing a brain-body approach, your brain will know what is best to focus on in therapy sessions.
I look forward to beginning this healing self-discovery journey with you and I appreciate the courage that it has taken for you to reach out for support.

For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and coping with life changes, research and clinical experience indicate that online therapy can be just as effective as traditional in-person work.

One of the most practical benefits is flexibility – clients can connect in the format that best fits their life, whether through video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety makes it easier to maintain consistent care around work, family, and other commitments.
