About Mary
In private practice she sees adults, teens, and children, and she also works in a corrections setting providing substance abuse and mental health treatment for people with felony DUIs. She commonly addresses trauma, mood concerns, and issues with sleep or eating, and she helps people manage relationship strain and parenting stress.
Mary uses many therapeutic tools to suit each person’s needs. She often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance-oriented strategies, and skills from dialectical behavior work. She discusses options with clients and builds a tailored plan together rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
Her background includes focused work with addiction and trauma, and she evaluates when trauma-focused interventions are appropriate. She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused approaches to support change and practical problem solving.
Outside of her clinical work she values family time and outdoor life in Montana. She enjoys hiking and travel and often brings a calm, down-to-earth perspective into sessions.
