Hi there-I’m Mary Carter, LMFT. I have over 23 years of experience helping people with things like depression, anxiety, grief and loss, ADHD, and more. My approach is centered in the evidence-based theory of Carl Rogers providing unconditional positive regard to each individual. I am a certified in cognitive behavioral therapy and anger management, and am a parenting and late life depression facilitator. I provide my clients with a safe and non-judgmental space to be transparent about their struggles.
My clients have described my communication style as kind, empathic, and non-judgmental. I create an environment where clients feel safe sharing their struggles and feel a sense of empowerment, hope, and encouragement.
In our sessions, I'll sit with you in a collaborative manner and ask what you'd like to achieve. Then we unravel your challenges and work together to find skills that will help you manage or eliminate the behaviors or situation’s that you are struggling with. If you think we might be a good fit, reach out today!
