She has provided services in a large urban high school setting, supporting students in grades 9-12 with personal concerns, post-secondary educational planning, vocational needs, and social and behavioral issues.

Her primary clinical focus is on grief and trauma. She has worked with students from diverse backgrounds, including many who are refugees and need support processing traumatic experiences. She has also assisted families who are undocumented with immigration-related questions and college admissions guidance.

She fosters an open, nonjudgmental environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared safely. Her approach draws on multiple modalities tailored to each person’s needs, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy. She offers individual, family, and group therapy.

Mary recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage and is proud of those who take that first step toward support and healing.
