About Mary
Mary Guillory, LPC, focuses on helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn. She invites honest conversation and aims to make it easier to talk about hard feelings. Her style is calm and straightforward so parents can find practical steps that fit daily life.
Mary builds a relationship that lets a person feel heard before moving into change work. She listens for what matters most and tailors sessions to those concerns. That can mean short skills practice, problem-solving, or digging into patterns that keep problems repeating.
Her background includes five years of clinical work in Texas as a licensed professional counselor. She blends approaches rather than following a single method. That mix helps her match tools to the issue at hand rather than force one technique on everyone.
Mary often uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also draws on client-centered ways of listening and acceptance-focused methods that encourage valued action. For people affected by trauma or addiction, she pays attention to safety and pacing so work moves at a comfortable speed.
Sessions aim to be practical and relevant to family and parenting concerns, with steps you can try between meetings. She supports people through stress, anxiety, grief, anger, relationship strain, and life transitions. If you want to start, follow the site's Start Therapy steps to match and schedule a session.
How Mary Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps toward those values even when feelings are difficult. It can help with anxiety, stress, and life changes by shifting attention from avoiding emotions to acting on chosen goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. The work often includes noticing unhelpful thinking, testing new behaviors, and practicing skills between sessions to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety.
Mary pairs these approaches with client-centered listening, which keeps the session focused on your concerns and pace. Together these methods give a blend of practical skills and values-based direction that many people find useful for stress, relationship strain, addiction concerns, and coping with change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mary will talk with you about goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust as progress is made. This is a collaborative process where your feedback guides which techniques are used.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and allow different ways of working like skill practice or talk therapy without changing the core aims of treatment.
