Mary Buntin is a Virginia-licensed clinician with 40 years of professional experience supporting adults through grief, loss, depression, anxiety, stress, and major life changes. She has a particular interest in assisting people as they move into retirement and adapt to the transition of becoming an older adult.
Mary also works with caregivers who are supporting loved ones with degenerative illnesses, and she has experience addressing compassion fatigue. Her practice is not limited to any single population; she welcomes individuals facing a range of challenges related to emotional adjustment and life transitions.
She views the relationship a person has with themselves as central to well-being and focuses on identifying strengths and positive traits that can be used to meet difficult situations. Mary aims to support and empower clients as they take courageous steps toward a more fulfilling and happier life.
She maintains her credential as a Virginia Licensed Clinical Social Worker (VA LCSW 0904000875) and provides care from the perspective of a female, older, liberal therapist.
Online therapy can be an effective option for many common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and managing life transitions. For these issues, research indicates that remote therapy can be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care.
One major benefit is flexibility - clients can connect in the format that works best for them, whether that is video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it simpler to fit therapeutic support into a busy schedule and to engage in care from different locations.
Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists if they seek a different fit. Online therapy offers a practical way to access professional support while maintaining many of the same therapeutic goals as face-to-face work.
