About

Mary Harbin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LICSW, LCSW) who supports adults through some of life’s most difficult seasons, drawing on more than two decades of experience in mental health services. She spent 21 years working as a Community Support Specialist and has nearly 5 years of experience providing therapy, giving her a grounded understanding of what it can take to regain steadiness and a sense of meaning when depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, mood incongruities, or psychosis begin to feel overwhelming.

Her style is warm, active, and centered on the belief that a diagnosis does not define a person. Mary focuses on building a genuine therapeutic connection and using therapy as a practical, hope-oriented process - not just conversation for conversation’s sake. She integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns; Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which builds coping and emotion-regulation skills; and EMDR, a structured approach often used to help people process distressing past experiences.

Mary’s aim is to help clients feel truly seen and supported as they move from simply getting through the day to creating a life that feels more hopeful and authentically their own.

Evidence-Based Therapy, Made Accessible Online

Mary Harbin integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help adults work through anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and major life changes in a structured, supportive way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts and behaviors and practicing alternative responses, which can be especially helpful for stress, anxiety, and low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication, supporting clients who want steadier coping tools in day-to-day life. EMDR is a structured approach often used to help people process difficult past experiences so they feel less emotionally “stuck” when reminders show up in the present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mary collaborates with clients to understand what they are facing, what they want to change, and what feels doable, then adjusts the pace and tools to match their goals and preferences.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit support into real life. Sessions can happen through video calls or phone sessions, and clients can also use live chat or text-based messaging for added flexibility between sessions. This range of options can help people stay engaged and consistent, even during busy or unpredictable weeks.
