About Mary Stinson

Mary Stinson, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), takes a non-judgemental, strengths-based approach that balances compassion with clear, practical guidance. She blends a grounded and direct style to help clients identify recurring patterns that no longer serve them and to build healthier ways of responding.

Drawing on contemporary neuroscience, Mary explains the neurochemical processes that underlie feelings, impulses, and behaviors so clients can better understand why they react as they do under stress. She emphasizes that stress often leads to the poorest decisions, and that these cycles can repeat across a lifetime without intentional intervention.

Mary is devoted to educating people about the drivers of their behavior and to supporting them in breaking free from painful, repetitive patterns. She focuses on teaching concrete strategies and offering timely support so clients can make different choices and move toward a more fulfilling life. Her approach underscores that individuals are worthy of care and capable of change when offered the right tools and guidance at the right time.

Attachment, CBT, and DBT adapted for online support

Mary Stinson integrates attachment-based work to explore how early relational patterns shape current connections and emotional responses, helping clients address issues like abandonment, trust, and attachment difficulties. She uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is effective for stress, anxiety, and many everyday challenges. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) provides practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it useful for clients struggling with impulsivity, intense feelings, or relationship conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mary collaborates with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds so the work feels tailored and relevant.

Online therapy with Mary is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals and therapists from home or on the go, support consistent attendance, and allow for flexible check-ins between sessions when needed.
