Sometimes life can be unpredictable and painful. Trauma affects our lives in many ways. Hello, my name is Mary K. I am a trauma focused therapist with over three decades of experience working with children, families and adults. I am accepting new clients for short term therapy for those who wish to address personal issues, or long-term therapy for those who need to focus on trauma work. I encourage individuals to identify and nurture their inner strength through empowerment, talk therapy and a little bit of life coaching. It would be my pleasure to guide you on your path of rediscovering and loving your best authentic self.
Some of the positions I have held as a MH clinician include: DCF family reunification therapist, Homeless SA recovery family residential program director, Trauma specialist, CWTV therapist, Adoption specialist, and MH therapist. I am grateful for the many lessons my clients have taught me over the years, especially how to harness the power of GRIT.
The rising phoenix demonstrates our innate power to heal. I will gently guide you through this process in a space where you are able to feel safe and be vulnerable. Embracing pain and joy is part of finding acceptance and true belonging. Your best authentic self is patiently awaiting. Mary K Counseling: Redefining Beauty, Rising from the Ashes
