Approach and online care that fit your life

Mary Ann uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, and support habit change. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early patterns shape current relationships and reactions, which can help with trust, communication, and intimacy issues. Mindfulness techniques are used alongside these approaches to teach simple attention and breathing skills for managing stress and reactivity.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Mary Ann works with each person to identify goals and trial methods that feel useful. Together they adjust strategies over time so the work matches each person’s needs and preferences rather than forcing one path from the start.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when that helps. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit a brief check-in during a work break. Live chat or messaging can be used for shorter updates, homework check-ins, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, or travel.
